Q: What happens to my data when I delete my MoBoo account?
When you delete your MoBoo account, we permanently remove all personal information that identifies you or your children — including names, emails, account IDs, and any device links.

However, we may retain anonymous usage data (for example, the number of books read, average reading time, or common interests) that can no longer be traced back to you. This helps us understand overall reading trends and continue improving MoBoo’s recommendations for all families.

This approach is standard across educational and reading platforms — it protects your privacy while allowing us to make MoBoo smarter and more helpful for everyone.

How to delete your MoBoo account:

  1. Log into your Parent Account.
  2. Tap the three dots (⋮) in the top-right corner.
  3. Select “Delete My Account”.
  4. Answer the confirmation question.
  5. Tap “Delete” at the bottom to complete the process.

Once confirmed, your account and all identifiable data are permanently erased, and the process cannot be undone.
