What stays out there
Deleting your Vinted account ends your profile there. It doesn't reach copies of your name, location or username that people-search sites or search engines picked up while your profile was public, and it doesn't touch other companies' records.
Vinted says you can also ask it to erase your personal data under Article 17 of the GDPR by contacting it. That covers Vinted only.
Serus finds where your details are listed and removes them. You can run a free scan to see what's out there.
