title: "Account Deletion"
icon: 'material/account-remove'
description: It's easy to accumulate a large number of internet accounts, here are some tips on how to prune your collection.
---
Over time, it can be easy to accumulate a number of online accounts, many of which you may no longer use. Deleting these unused accounts is an important step in reclaiming your privacy, as dormant accounts are vulnerable to data breaches. A data breach is when a service's security is compromised and protected information is viewed, transmitted, or stolen by unauthorized actors. Data breaches are unfortunately all [too common](https://haveibeenpwned.com/PwnedWebsites) these days, and so practicing good digital hygiene is the best way to minimize the impact they have on your life. The goal of this guide then is to help navigate you through the irksome process of account deletion, often made difficult by [deceptive design](https://www.deceptive.design/), for the betterment of your online presence.

### Email
### E-postadress
If you didn't use a password manager in the past or you think you have accounts that were never added to your password manager, another option is to search the email account(s) that you believe you signed up on. On your email client, search for keywords such as "verify" or "welcome." Almost every time you make an online account, the service will send a verification link or an introductory message to your email. This can be a good way to find old, forgotten accounts.

### GDPR (EEA residents only)
Residents of the EEA have additional rights regarding data erasure specified in [Article 17](https://www.gdpr.org/regulation/article-17.html) of the GDPR. If it's applicable to you, read the privacy policy for any given service to find information on how to exercise your right to erasure. Reading the privacy policy can prove important, as some services have a "Delete Account" option that only disables your account and for real deletion you have to take additional action. Sometimes actual deletion may involve filling out surveys, emailing the data protection officer of the service or even proving your residence in the EEA. If you plan to go this way, do **not** overwrite account information—your identity as an EEA resident may be required. Note that the location of the service does not matter; GDPR applies to anyone serving European users. If the service does not respect your right to erasure, you can contact your national [Data Protection Authority](https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/reform/rights-citizens/redress/what-should-i-do-if-i-think-my-personal-data-protection-rights-havent-been-respected_en) and you may be entitled to monetary compensation.

Om tjänsten inte respekterar din rätt till radering kan du kontakta din nationella dataskyddsmyndighet [](https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/reform/rights-citizens/redress/what-should-i-do-if-i-think-my-personal-data-protection-rights-havent-been-respected_en) och du kan ha rätt till ekonomisk kompensation.
### Overwriting Account information
### Överskrivning av kontoinformation
In some situations where you plan to abandon an account, it may make sense to overwrite the account information with fake data. Once you've made sure you can log in, change all the information in your account to falsified information. The reason for this is that many sites will retain information you previously had even after account deletion. The hope is that they will overwrite the previous information with the newest data you entered. However, there is no guarantee that there won't be backups with the prior information.
I vissa situationer där du planerar att överge ett konto kan det vara klokt att skriva över kontoinformationen med falska uppgifter. När du har sett till att du kan logga in kan du ändra all information i ditt konto till förfalskad information. Anledningen till detta är att många webbplatser kommer att behålla information som du tidigare hade även efter att kontot raderats. Förhoppningen är att de kommer att skriva över den tidigare informationen med de senaste uppgifterna du angav. Det finns dock ingen garanti för att det inte kommer att finnas säkerhetskopior med den tidigare informationen.
For the account email, either create a new alternate email account via your provider of choice or create an alias using an [email aliasing service](../email.md#email-aliasing-services). You can then delete your alternate email address once you are done. We recommend against using temporary email providers, as oftentimes it is possible to reactivate temporary emails.
För e-postkontot skapar du antingen ett nytt alternativt e-postkonto via din valfria leverantör eller skapar ett alias med hjälp av en e-postaliaseringstjänst på [](../email.md#email-aliasing-services). Du kan sedan ta bort din alternativa e-postadress när du är klar. Vi rekommenderar att du inte använder tillfälliga e-postleverantörer, eftersom det ofta är möjligt att återaktivera tillfälliga e-postmeddelanden.
### Delete
### Radera
You can check [JustDeleteMe](https://justdeleteme.xyz) for instructions on deleting the account for a specific service. Some sites will graciously have a "Delete Account" option, while others will go as far as to force you to speak with a support agent. The deletion process can vary from site to site, with account deletion being impossible on some.
Du kan kontrollera [JustDeleteMe](https://justdeleteme.xyz) för instruktioner om hur du tar bort kontot för en specifik tjänst. Vissa webbplatser har ett alternativ för att ta bort kontot, medan andra går så långt som att tvinga dig att prata med en supportmedarbetare. Raderingen kan variera från webbplats till webbplats, och på vissa webbplatser är det omöjligt att radera konton.
For services that don't allow account deletion, the best thing to do is falsify all your information as previously mentioned and strengthen account security. To do so, enable [MFA](multi-factor-authentication.md) and any extra security features offered. As well, change the password to a randomly-generated one that is the maximum allowed size (a [password manager](../passwords.md) can be useful for this).
För tjänster som inte tillåter radering av konton är det bästa du kan göra att förfalska all din information som tidigare nämnts och stärka kontosäkerheten. För att göra det, aktivera [MFA](multi-factor-authentication.md) och eventuella extra säkerhetsfunktioner som erbjuds. Ändra också lösenordet till ett slumpmässigt genererat lösenord som har den högsta tillåtna storleken (en lösenordshanterare [](../passwords.md) kan vara användbar för detta).
If you're satisfied that all information you care about is removed, you can safely forget about this account. If not, it might be a good idea to keep the credentials stored with your other passwords and occasionally re-login to reset the password.
Om du är nöjd med att all information du bryr dig om tas bort kan du säkert glömma det här kontot. Om inte kan det vara en bra idé att spara uppgifterna tillsammans med dina andra lösenord och ibland logga in igen för att återställa lösenordet.
Even when you are able to delete an account, there is no guarantee that all your information will be removed. In fact, some companies are required by law to keep certain information, particularly when related to financial transactions. It's mostly out of your control what happens to your data when it comes to websites and cloud services.
Även om du kan radera ett konto finns det ingen garanti för att all din information tas bort. Vissa företag är faktiskt skyldiga enligt lag att spara viss information, särskilt när det gäller finansiella transaktioner. Det är mestadels utom din kontroll vad som händer med dina data när det gäller webbplatser och molntjänster.
## Avoid New Accounts
## Undvik nya konton
As the old saying goes, "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure." Whenever you feel tempted to sign up for a new account, ask yourself, "Do I really need this? Can I accomplish what I need to without an account?" It can often be much harder to delete an account than to create one. And even after deleting or changing the info on your account, there might be a cached version from a third-party—like the [Internet Archive](https://archive.org/). Avoid the temptation when you're able to—your future self will thank you!

Som det gamla talesättet säger: "Ett uns av förebyggande åtgärder är värt ett pund av botemedel" När du känner dig frestad att registrera dig för ett nytt konto, fråga dig själv, "Behöver jag verkligen det här? Kan jag uppnå det jag behöver utan ett konto?" Det kan ofta vara mycket svårare att radera ett konto än att skapa ett. Och även efter att du har raderat eller ändrat informationen på ditt konto kan det finnas en cachad version från en tredje part, till exempel [Internet Archive](https://archive.org/). Undvik frestelsen när du kan - ditt framtida jag kommer att tacka dig!
