Looking to permanently delete account. How do I do so? Appreciate all links or advice. I’ve decided to cut ties completely with Twitch due to their Amazon ownership. Amazon have gone too far with those silly smart speakers, door bells and other rubbish they use.

Mentioning, I’ve emailed the twitch developer email address about this, but would appreciate a response on both if possible. Hopefully there won’t be the circumstance where people on here assume someone will reply to either and therefore nobody will. Hope you understand.

Looking around, it’s a little worrying that similar requests have been unanswered. Are these accounts just supposed to exist forever? Leaving them here forever surely just results in Amazon having another excuse to profile us.

Thanks

To my knowledge:

Developer accounts are not “seperate” accounts to a “regular” Twitch account.

So (optionally) deleting all clientID’s (if you wanted) and then deleting your Twitch account will achieve what you are attempting to do.
