It may as of yet be possible as the only data stored within Lorekeeper is the user's username, however, which unlinking the social media account removes. In conclusion: this may be manageable, however, we have an inadequate understanding of the app review process and how to best negotiate it with regards to Lorekeeper due to the difficult nature of testing such a thing.
