# Delete your account

> Review affected workspaces before closing your account, confirm deletion by email, and understand recovery deadlines and permanent cleanup.

Review what closes with your account and confirm deletion only when you are ready.

## Delete your account

In **Account → Security**, choose **Delete account** to review the workspaces you own.
Cancel their live subscriptions before continuing. Transfer workspace ownership first if teammates need to keep using that workspace.

Download information you need before closing your account. Closure ends sign-in access, including access to download features. For requests about retained information, see [Privacy choices](/account/privacy).

<Warning>
  Deleting closes your account and every workspace you own at once. Only support can recover them, and only within 30
  days. After that their content is gone for good.
</Warning>

<Steps>
  <Step title="Review affected workspaces">Check the list on the deletion page.</Step>

  <Step title="Open your email">Follow the confirmation link within 1 hour. Opening it leaves your account open.</Step>

  <Step title="Confirm deletion">
    While signed in, select **Confirm account deletion**. Your account and owned workspaces close, and you are signed
    out.

Content in other people's workspaces stays there. If a check fails, the page says why.

**Send deletion confirmation** accepts 3 requests a minute. A further click shows "The request could not be
completed. Please try again." Wait a minute, then try again.

### Recovery

Contact [support](mailto:support@audimate.ai) before 30 days have elapsed. Only a platform administrator can recover a closed account or workspace.
Recovery preserves its content and settings. You sign in again, and schedules stay paused until you resume them.

Until the account records are removed, about 90 days after closure, signing in or signing up with
that email, resetting its password, or resending verification shows "This account is closed." Your
memberships in workspaces owned by others end at 30 days, when permanent cleanup begins.

| Time since closure | What happens                                        |
| ------------------ | --------------------------------------------------- |
| Before 30 days     | Account and owned workspaces can be recovered       |
| From 30 days       | Content and credentials are permanently removed     |
| From 90 days       | Remaining account and workspace records are removed |
