    If you would like to manage, change, limit, or delete your information, we allow you to do that through the following tools:

    • Services Settings. You can change your Services settings to manage certain information available to other users. You can manage your contacts, groups, or use our blacklist feature to manage the users with whom you communicate.
    • Permissions. If you want to revoke the permission you have agreed to, you can cancel the permissions directly in your phone, but this may result in a feature being unusable and you may be able to re-permit it if need.

    • Deleting Your MeSign Account. You may delete your MeSign account at any time by logging into your MeSign account in MeSign website. The account deletion operation can only be done by you, and the customer service staff cannot help you. Uninstall your APP doesn’t mean you have deleted your account.

MeSign will delete your account data and revoke all certificates within 5 workdays after you submit the account deletion request.
