Profile Detail Removal FAQ
At Archer, we use automated moderation and user flags to ensure user profiles follow our Community Guidelines. In response to automated systems or other Archer users flagging your profile for review, we may occasionally remove content found in user-generated text fields (ex: name, bio, tags) that violate our Community Guidelines.
We will send you an email letting you know if we have removed any of your account information. Depending on the profile detail removed you may need to update your profile in order to continue messaging and have your account visible on the app. You will see an in-app prompt if updates are required.
Please note violation(s) of our guidelines surrounding profile information could result in your account being permanently banned.
How do I delete my account?
To delete your account permanently:
- Sign into into the Archer app
- Tap your Profile icon on the far right of the navigation bar
- Tap the Settings icon in the top right corner
- Tap Delete Account
- Tap Yes, I’m Sure
This action ensures all your content including photos, chat history, and member interactions will be deleted in accordance with Archer’s Privacy Policy.
Please note: simply removing, uninstalling or deleting the Archer app from your phone will not delete your account. You must follow the above steps to delete your account.
My account is banned
If you’ve been banned from Archer, you’ll see a message letting you know when you try to log in. We ban accounts when there has been a violation of our Terms of Use and/or Community Guidelines.
It’s important to us that Archer is a safe place for everyone. Therefore, we do not take violations of our policies lightly. If you’ve been banned, you’ll no longer be able to access your Archer account or create new accounts in the future.
If your account is under review, it means it is still under the review process. If we find you have not violated our policies, you will be let back into Archer. If we find that you have violated our policies, it could result in a permanent ban.

Why was my photo removed from Archer?
We sometimes have to remove content from Archer to keep the experience enjoyable for everyone. If a photo has been removed from your profile, it means we detected a violation of our photo rules. Just like with any profile under review, we will take appropriate action if we find that you have violated any of our policies. This may result in the permanent removal of that photo and/or the permanent ban of your profile.
Please be respectful, review our Community Guidelines, and keep them in mind whenever you upload new content to your profile or private album.
