Deleting your account

Self-serve account deletion — what happens, what's preserved, and how long it takes.

Account deletion is self-serve from Settings → Account. Click Delete account, confirm with your password (or OAuth re-auth), and the request is queued.

What happens after you confirm #

  1. You're immediately signed out.
  2. Your sessions are invalidated; existing API tokens stop working.
  3. Within minutes, your account is marked deleted and is no longer visible in the UI.
  4. Within 30 days, all personal data is purged from production storage: email, password hash, OAuth identifiers, sources, lockfiles, analysis history, billing records.
  5. Backups follow the same 30-day rotation; data is fully gone after the next rotation cycle completes.

What's preserved (anonymized) #

  • Aggregate usage metrics — counts only, no user identifier.
  • Tracked-source counts for the Explore catalog — your individual contribution drops, but the public catalog itself isn't affected.

Active subscriptions #

If you delete an account with an active subscription, the subscription is canceled at the same time. You may be eligible for a pro-rata refund if you're inside the 14-day window — the refund preview shows up at the delete confirmation step.

Team accounts #

  • Members can delete their personal account at any time. The team isn't affected — your seat opens up for re-assignment.
  • Owners must transfer ownership before deleting their account. The delete-account flow surfaces this requirement and routes you to the team page if you're the only owner.

Recovery window #

There is no recovery window. Once the deletion is queued, the data is gone. If you think you might want to come back, downgrading to the Hobbyist tier preserves your account at no cost.
