How do I delete all data from Fitbit's servers?

In light of the potential google acquisition of Fitbit my fears about Fitbit accumulating all my data were clearly correct, and so I want to delete all the data you have acquired.

 

There is no option I can find to delete this data, and my account - deleting my account without guarantees that you've deleted my data is meaningless.

 

So how do I delete this data?

See How do I delete my Fitbit account? 

"Delete your Fitbit account in the Fitbit app to delete your Fitbit data associated with your account."

Before posting, re-read to see if it would make sense to someone else not looking at your Fitbit or phone.

Among the different options in Account’ in the app, there is a ‘Manage Data’ which is where you delete the account. 
I have received a mail informing me that I have 7 days to regret it before the account is permanently deleted

Thanks, Jogger. I was hoping that, at some point, we’d hear from staff but my hopes are not high when Google is involved.

If you tap on your name (maybe you have a picture, too?) in the upper left corner of the start screen in the fitbit app the account-area is hidden there. Then you scroll down to see all rhe options. Manage data is one of the options.
