MAPPS App Account Deletion

The instructions below are now archived, as data collection for the Fall 2023 MAPPING@Brown study ended on November 17, 2023. If you are a participant with questions about the treatment of your personal data, please contact julia_netter@brown.edu.

MAPPING@Brown participants’ app accounts will be automatically deleted at the conclusion of the study. If you wish to delete your account before that time and stop participating in the study, please follow the steps below.

If you decide to withdraw from the study while data collection is ongoing, you can do so by clicking the “Delete My Data” option in the app menu. You will be able to choose whether you want the study to retain and use any data collected up to that point, or whether you want your app data, or both your app and socio-demographic data to be deleted.

You can also quit the study by deleting the app from your phone. In that case, all data collected from you up until the point of withdrawal can still be used by the study team for research purposes.
