# Delete your account

> Permanently erase your webhook.co account and its data, including organizations you solely own. What's removed, and the one thing to do first if you own a shared organization.

You can permanently delete your account yourself. This is an **erasure**, not a deactivation — it can't
be undone.

<Warning>
  Deleting your account is permanent and irreversible. There's no grace period and no way to recover
  the data afterwards. Export anything you need first.
</Warning>

## What gets deleted

* Your identity — name, avatar, and sign-in details.
* Every **organization you solely own**, together with its endpoints, events, and stored payloads.
* Your sessions, so you're signed out everywhere.

Organizations where you're a member (but not the sole owner) are **not** deleted — you're simply
removed from them.

## Before you start: shared organizations

If you're the **only owner of an organization that has other members**, deletion is **blocked** — we
won't leave a team without an owner. Hand ownership over first:

<Steps>
  <Step title="Make someone else an owner">
    On that organization's **Team** page, change an existing member's role to **owner** (or invite a
    new member as an owner). You need to be an owner to do this.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Then delete your account">
    With another owner in place, deletion is no longer blocked.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  This only applies to organizations that have **other members**. An organization that's just you is
  deleted along with your account.
</Note>

## Delete your account

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open your profile">Go to your account's **Profile** settings.</Step>

  <Step title="Confirm">
    In the delete-account section, type **DELETE** to confirm you understand it's permanent.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Done">
    Your account and its solely-owned organizations are erased and you're signed out.
  </Step>
