# Deleting your eclean account

We're sorry to see you go! If you no longer wish to use eclean, you have the right to permanently close your account and remove your personal data from our active systems at any time.

Before you proceed, please read the following information carefully, as account deletion is a permanent action.

### What happens when you delete your account?

* **Loss of access:** Because eclean requires an active account to validate your license, deleting your account will instantly revoke your access to the software.
* **Billing access:** Deleting your eclean account removes access tied to that account. If you have paid access or an open billing question, contact support before deleting so we can review your account state.
* **Permanent data loss:** Your account details, saved billing details, and support history will be permanently erased. This action cannot be undone or recovered.

### How to delete your account

If you're ready to permanently close your eclean account, follow these steps:

1. **Log in** to your [eclean account dashboard](https://eclean.gg/account/security/).
2. Navigate to the **Security** tab on the main menu.
3. Scroll down to the bottom of the page to locate the **Data & Privacy** section.
4. Click the **Delete Account** button.
5. A confirmation window will appear. You will be asked to enter your current password to verify your identity.
6. Click **Yes, Delete My Account** to finalize the process.

### A note on billing records

While your eclean account and profile data will be erased immediately, please note that our payment processor, Stripe, is legally required to retain basic transaction records (such as past invoices and receipts) for tax and financial compliance purposes.

### Need help?

If you're experiencing a technical issue that is making you want to leave, or if you are having trouble locating the deletion button in your portal, please reach out to us at [**support@eclean.gg**](mailto:support@eclean.gg) or use **Chat with us** on the Support page. We're happy to help you resolve the issue or process the deletion request manually on your behalf.
