Friday stores your email, tier, credits, and chat history (up to your plan's limit). Your messages are used only to generate replies — they are not sold or used to train AI models.

Sign in, go to account settings, and tap "Delete account". This permanently removes all your data including chat history, credits, and profile. This cannot be undone.
