Can I undo deleting my account?

No. Deletion is permanent, so make sure before you confirm.

What happens to messages and posts I made in other flats?

Chat messages you sent in other people's flats stay there. Your name on announcements and billboard comments is replaced with "Deleted user", and any roles you had in other flats are removed.

Will I be charged again?

No. Subscriptions on the flats being deleted are cancelled immediately. Past invoices are kept by our payment provider for tax purposes.

I joined as a guest without an account

Guests who never created an account have nothing to delete.

How do I delete my flat.social account?

In your dashboard, open Settings, go to the Danger Zone, and click Delete Account. flat.social shows which flats and subscriptions will be removed, you type DELETE to confirm, and your account is erased for good. It cannot be undone.

This is permanent

Deleting your account erases your account and personal data and cannot be undone. Flats you own are deleted with it, and their subscriptions are cancelled immediately.

What gets deleted?

Before anything is removed, flat.social checks the flats you own:

Flats where nobody else holds a role are permanently deleted with your account. Visitors and guests don't count, so a busy public flat with no role holders is deleted too.
Flats where someone holds a role (people you assigned a role to, or who accepted an invite) block deletion, so they don't lose their space without warning.
Active subscriptions on flats being deleted are cancelled immediately, and you won't be charged again. Scheduled Day Passes are not refunded automatically; contact support if you had one booked.

The dialog lists all of this before you confirm.

Blocked by a flat with role holders?

Ownership can't be transferred to another account yet, so you have two options: remove everyone from the flat's roles (Settings → Users → User Roles → Assign role on each role), or delete that flat first from Settings → Ownership. See Roles & permissions and Delete a flat.
