Esmero — Delete your data
Esmero is published on Google Play by Yabin Alejandro Lagunes Cuevas (The Alchemist Code). The app has no accounts in its local mode: we never ask for your name, email or password. If you turned on Esmero Business (booking link), you also have a cloud account: see the section below.
Data stored on your phone
- Open Esmero.
- Go to Settings › Delete all my data.
- Tap Delete to confirm.
Your clients, appointments, visit history, visit photos, services, statistics and settings are erased immediately and for good, and pending reminders are cancelled. Uninstalling the app also removes them.
To delete a single client instead, open the client and choose ⋮ › Delete client: their visits, photos and appointments go with them.
Files you exported yourself (CSV or backup) are not touched: they are yours, wherever you saved or sent them. If your phone backs up to your Google account, Android may still hold an older device backup; you can delete it in your Google account under Google Drive › Backups.
Deleting your data does not cancel or undo a Premium subscription or purchase: it stays linked to your Google Play account. To cancel a subscription, use Google Play › Payments & subscriptions.
If you turned on Esmero Business (booking link)
- Open Settings › Booking link.
- Tap Delete my account and cloud data and confirm.
This deletes your account (email and password), your business in the cloud, the public link and every booking stored online, plus the push token. The local copy on your phone is kept and can be deleted as described above. If you only want to turn the link off, use Disconnect this business.
Data held by the services the app uses
Crashlytics, Analytics and AdMob tie their records to anonymous identifiers, not to your name. Google Play keeps your purchase under your Google account.
| Service | What is kept | For how long |
|---|---|---|
| Firebase Crashlytics | Crash reports | 90 days, then deleted automatically |
| Google Analytics for Firebase | Usage events linked to an app-instance ID | Deleted automatically after the retention period set in Google Analytics |
| Google AdMob | Ad interactions and the Android advertising ID | Under Google's retention policy. Reset or delete the advertising ID in Android settings › Privacy › Ads |
| Google Play | Your purchase, purchase history and payment details | Kept by Google under its privacy policy. We never receive your payment details |
In local mode we keep no copy of your clients, your appointments or your purchases. With Esmero Business on, business data and bookings are stored in Firebase (Google) solely to provide the service, and are deleted with the account deletion described above. For anything else, write to [email protected].
