Delete your BargainBite account
Last updated: 6 November 2026
BargainBite is made by Deep Blue (a trading name of SwiftBee Ltd).
You can delete your account and data inside the app at any time, or ask us to
do it for you by email. Deleting your account does not cancel your
subscription. Cancel that separately in Google Play or the App Store.
Delete it in the app
- Open BargainBite. If you signed in, make sure it's the account you want to delete.
- Tap Settings in the bar at the bottom, then Account.
- Tap Delete account, then confirm.
Your account is deleted straight away, along with everything the app stored on that phone. The app then starts again from its welcome screen.
This works whether or not you signed in. If you never signed in, BargainBite only has an anonymous account (a random ID), and Delete account removes that too.
Ask us to delete it
If you can't use the app, email admin@swiftbee.co.uk with the subject BargainBite account deletion. Send it from the email address you signed in with, or include the phone number you signed in with. We'll confirm when it's done, within 30 days.
What is deleted
- Your account: your user ID and the name, email address or phone number you signed in with.
- Family sharing: your name and food needs in any household you joined. If you created the household, it is ended for everyone.
- Import a recipe: the count of imports your account made today.
- Data on your phone: your plan answers (household, budget, supermarkets, allergies, food likes and dislikes and any body details you gave), your weekly plans, shopping lists, pantry, imported recipes, what the app learned about your tastes, and your settings. This data is only stored on your device, so deleting in the app erases it. If you used the app on another phone, delete the app there too.
What is kept
- Dinner ratings. Stars and reviews you gave recipes are kept under your account's random ID, which no longer links to you once the account is deleted. They help us fix or replace recipes. To have them deleted too, email us (below).
- Purchase records. Subscriptions are billed by Google Play or the App Store, which keep their own records under their policies. Our record of each store transaction (product, date and the store's transaction ID) is kept for accounting and to prevent fraud; it contains no name, email or payment details.
- Usage analytics, if you allowed them, are linked to a random app-instance ID rather than your account, and Google Analytics deletes them on its normal schedule. Turn analytics off in Settings to stop sending them.
- Sign-in logs. Our sign-in provider, Firebase Authentication, may keep security logs (such as IP addresses) for a limited time to prevent abuse, after which they are deleted.
Delete some data but keep your account
- Family sharing: leave the household in the app (Settings → Family sharing → Leave household), and your entry is removed.
- What the app learned about your tastes: Settings → Learned from your ratings → Reset.
- Anything else, including your dinner ratings: email admin@swiftbee.co.uk with the subject BargainBite data deletion, from the email address or with the phone number you signed in with, saying what you'd like deleted. We'll confirm within 30 days.
