HOW DO I DEACTIVATE (DELETE) MY ACCOUNT?
You would go here to deactivate your profile:
http://mingle2.com/user/show_settings

You may want to go here first, to stop emails:
http://mingle2.com/inbox/mail_settings

And to: http://mingle2.com/user/edit_photos
to remove your photos (optional..you may want
to leave them in case you return :-)

OP doesn't want profile to be DEACTIVATED. He/she wants to have it DELETED permanently. As many here apparently.

Basically something like:

DELETE * FROM user WHERE login = 'something' CASCADE

So that no traces of user any information are left in database.
No, changing data to meaningless doesn't qualify as deleting.
As a matter of fact, as users, he have every right to demand privacy laws to be respected - this includes removal of said data.

We don't deleted. We only deactivate. If someone doesn't want to come bacj, then don't reactivate the profile.

The profile will be closed and not in the search

Wow, you're quick one (I edited my last reply meanwhile, you may have missed it).

I would like to ask for something like this (in my case) :

DELETE FROM usertable WHERE login = 'icemm' CASCADE

So that no traces of user information are left in database.
No, changing data to meaningless doesn't qualify as deleting, sorry.
As a matter of fact, as users, he/she does have every right to demand privacy laws to be respected - this includes removal of said data when certain agreement expires (user no longer subscribes certain service, therefore his/her data no longer needs to be processed).

Thanks for understanding.

regards
MM

Even sites where you can delete profiles, keep information in the data base for a certain length of time.

And just like those, we do not give the information out and other members don't have access.

In the Terms of Service that all members agree to, it states we are not obligated to remove any content
