First, we recommend that an admin at the church follow up with the user to let them know what will happen if their account is removed (i.e. giving history is no longer tracked to them, dropped from membership, any events or groups they are registered for will disappear, etc.). If the user opts to continue with the deletion, then we recommend one of these 3 secondary paths for the church to keep historical data: #. Merge the record with an "anonymous user" so that any historical data gets moved to this user and is not "lost" from the system but can no longer be traced back to the person. #. Create a new "anonymous user" with a number and merge the person into this record. You can optionally choose to record the history of these individuals offline and track it to the person in the case that they don't want to lose data that is very specific to a person. #. Instead of deleting or merging their record, you can delete the person's user account and then update their record so that they can no longer log in (remove their phone numbers and email addresses). This way technically does not meet Apple's account deletion process since the users information would be available in the change log and it could be reserved. However, if the user is OK with this option, then it would be acceptable. | | +--------------------+------------------+ | **Latest Update** | **1/15/2024** | +--------------------+------------------+ Added info about requesting account deletion
