How to Delete A Foursquare Account

Foursquare is a mobile application available for iPhone, Android, Blackberry, Windows phone and other operating systems. The idea is to log-in or check-in at locations to share experiences, meet with friends or just share social experiences. Some businesses offer check-in specials, so if you check-in on Foursquare you can earn rewards like a percentage off your bill or even a freebie once in a while. The more you use the Foursquare program, the more badges you unlock. You can become the King of Sushi or a check-in Rockstar. Deleting your Foursquare account is quite simple because there is no money involved. The program is completely free.

Privacy Policy Fine Print

Foursquare collects location information as you check-in. That information is public unless you choose to check-in off-the-grid. The off-the-grid option allows you to participate in all the fun activities associated with Foursquare without letting anyone know your current location – not even friends on your friend list. You will accumulate rewards and badges just like normal, you’re locations just remain hidden.

To better understand your privacy on Foursquare, the company has published a Privacy Grid at
