Delete account
Permanently delete your SlugBase user account, what is removed, and how confirmation works.
What this is for
You can permanently delete your account from the Profile page. That removes your user record and associated data from this SlugBase instance (subject to how the server and database enforce cascades). This action is irreversible from the product’s perspective—you should export anything you need first.
Before you start
- You must be signed in.
- Some deployments attach an extra check before the delete dialog. If deletion is blocked, you may see You cannot delete your account. Transfer ownership or resolve billing first. or another message from the operator. Stock self-hosted core does not show that guard unless the deployment wires one in.
The in-app Danger zone copy warns: Permanently delete your account and all your data. This action cannot be undone. The confirmation dialog adds: Are you sure you want to delete your account? All your bookmarks, folders, tags, and data will be permanently deleted. This cannot be undone.
Delete your account
Open Profile
From the top bar user menu, choose Profile.
Open Danger zone
Scroll to Danger zone. The section description is Irreversible actions. These cannot be undone.
Start deletion
Select Delete my account.
Confirm
In the confirmation dialog, confirm again. The primary action uses the same label Delete my account.
After deletion the app confirms Your account has been deleted., signs you out, and takes you to the login screen. Your bookmarks, folders, tags, API tokens, and team memberships are all removed.
Whether deleted data is recoverable depends on your hosting and backup setup — the app itself does not keep a copy.
If you cannot delete
- Blocked by policy: If the message mentions ownership or billing, follow what it says or ask your organization admin.
- Other errors: Read the toast or error text; retry after fixing the stated problem or contact your instance administrator.
