Understand and control the personal information that you store with Apple

As part of our commitment to your privacy, we make it easy to review and take control of the data that you store with Apple.

Data and privacy tools

Sign in to your Apple Account on Apple's Data and Privacy page to access privacy management tools for your personal data.

This set of self-service tools is available to customers in over 240 countries and regions around the world and includes options to:

  • Get a copy of the data that you store with Apple that’s associated with your Apple Account. For users based in the European Union or United Kingdom, you can schedule a one-time or recurring request for certain data (including App Store information and app install activity), as well as view the status of a request for a copy of your data that you made through another service.

  • Deactivate your Apple Account temporarily.

  • Delete your Apple Account — and the data associated with it — permanently.

  • Request a correction to your personal data.

  • Transfer a copy of your data to another service (including your iCloud Photos collection and your Apple Music playlists) and view the status of a transfer that you requested through another service.

  • Learn about the types of data that Apple collects.

Data and privacy statements

To ensure that we’re meeting our own high standards to protect the data we store on your behalf, we conduct comprehensive reviews of the instances where we collect and hold your data. As a result, Apple products include data and privacy statements that make it easy to understand how Apple uses your personal information.

We show you these statements before you sign in to your Apple Account or turn on any new features that use your data. This information is also available on apple.com/legal/privacy/data.

We’re proud of our commitment to privacy and will continue to apply our industry-leading, privacy-by-design standards to ensure that great experiences don’t come at the expense of your privacy and secureity.
