This add-on allows your users to delete their own accounts and anonymize their data. It transforms account deletion from a tedious manual task into a seamless, highly secure background workflow, and it balances absolute compliance with strict data protection frameworks across the UK (UK GDPR / DPA), US (CCPA / state privacy laws), CA (PIPEDA), AU (Privacy Act), EU (GDPR), Latin America (LGPD & regional frameworks), TR (KVKK), and beyond, while safeguarding your forum's structural integrity and SEO value.
Completely wiping text archives to satisfy privacy requests often destroys the logical flow of community discussions and damages search rankings. This add-on bypasses that issue by decoupling identity metrics from public forum records. The automation framework replaces historical handles across previous posts, system quotes, and mentions with a clean placeholder. For standard forum replies, the system strips out the user signature while retaining conversational flow. For thread-starting posts, it completely replaces the initial text block with a pre-configured, search-engine-friendly layout string. This hides personal data while keeping indexed URLs fully operational.
Personal identities hide across multiple tables and filesystem layers. The deletion engine runs a comprehensive sweep across all native data containers:
-Executes hard disk wipes to destroy uploaded media files, data archives, graphics arrays, and custom profile artwork from your server, reclaiming massive storage volumes.
-Wipes user mapping profiles and dialogue strings from all private direct messages and multi-user conversations.
-Drops status updates, public profile wall commentary, and two-way reaction histories, separating the user's past actions from the community metrics.
-Safely drops registration tracks and IP signature tables to completely scrub digital connection histories.
-and more...
Every single cleanup routine is entirely optional, allowing you to enable or disable specific purges based on your forum's needs.
To protect your forum against accidental or malicious deletions, this add-on implements a configurable holding window. When a member requests removal, they enter a locked pending status rather than an immediate wipe. This add-on handles transactional email notifications across key stages (scheduling, verification token delivery, and cancellation), enabling users to halt the process instantly by signing back into their account. Users cannot delete their own account without a verification token delivered via email, providing an extra layer of account protection.
Processing bulk query drops on extensive databases can cause database table locks and server lag. This add-on is explicitly built around XenForo 2.3's native Job System and cron scheduler. Heavy backend file deletions and column rewrites are pushed out to automated execution queues, allowing you to run performance-heavy cleanup routines during low-traffic windows without affecting active browsing speeds. Take a look at the screenshots below for a step-by-step walkthrough of how it works.
