Reported Deleting Issues

— 3 years ago by Sophia

Hello I would like my Google Authenticator account completely deleted because I don’t use it anymore. I also want to delete it because all the 2fa accounts that I had on there were deleted by me. I can’t remember my passwords or backup codes for the accounts I added on there. I would greatly appreciate if my person information can be deleted off of there as well. I had my phone number as the way to get the account registered. I am making this request under CCPA. Thank you.
