Authy doesn't delete user accounts, despite claiming to do so upon request in their privacy policy.
"Why do you refuse to delete accounts? It is my data and I want it to be removed. How can I feel safe about my data if I cannot remove it if I choose not to continue using your service."
"Your personal information is generally stored until you advise us to close your Authy account and delete your records, and activity logs may be stored for up to a year for security purposes, or, if there is an ongoing investigation, until that matter is concluded."
