Before you start
Cancel your upcoming trips with other people first. You can't delete your account while you have an upcoming ride with passengers, or an upcoming booking on someone else's ride, because they are counting on you. The app will tell you, for example: "You have 1 upcoming booking. Please cancel it before deleting your account."
Cancel them from the Rides tab, then follow the steps above again. Upcoming rides with no passengers don't need cancelling; they are cancelled for you.
- Settle any cost-share you owe or are owed with your co-travellers. CarYatri does not hold any money, so there is nothing to refund or withdraw.
- If you only want to stop calls or WhatsApp messages, you don't need to delete your account: use Manage your Account → Communication preferences.
What happens after you delete
- You are logged out on every device straight away.
- Your upcoming rides that have no passengers are cancelled, and any weekly repeating rides stop.
- Your account is kept for 30 days in case you change your mind. During this time you can reactivate it (see below).
- After 30 days, your profile, photo, chats, ID document details, vehicle details and contact details are permanently deleted and cannot be recovered.
- Rides you have already taken stay in your co-travellers' history, but your name is replaced with "Deleted User".
- To answer legal or fraud-prevention questions, we keep only a scrambled (hashed) form of your email and mobile number for up to 365 days. It cannot be turned back into your details. See our Privacy Policy.
Changed your mind? Reactivate within 30 days
Log in
Open the app and log in with the same email and password as before, before the deletion date.
Tap Reactivate my account
The app shows "Your account is scheduled for deletion". Tap Reactivate my account.
You're back
Your profile, chats and ratings are just as you left them. Rides that were cancelled when you asked to delete won't come back, but you can post them again.
