Delete Your Groupthink Account
You can permanently delete your Groupthink account from the Profile tab of your User Settings. Deleting your account removes your user, disconnects your integrations and calendars, and detaches you from your meetings and organizations. This cannot be undone.
Heads up: There is no separate confirmation step where you type a word or re-enter your password. Once you confirm in the dialog, the account is deleted right away and cannot be recovered.
Overview
Deleting your account is a two-step action: you open the Profile tab, then confirm in a dialog. When you confirm, Groupthink removes your account and signs you out, then sends you back to the home page.
If you want to remove an organization rather than your personal account, see Delete an Organization instead.
How to Delete Your Account
- Click your profile avatar in the top right and choose User settings
- Open the Profile tab
- Scroll to the Danger Zone at the bottom
- Click Permanently Delete Account...
- In the Delete account? dialog, click Delete account for <your email> to confirm, or Cancel to back out
While the deletion runs, the button reads Deleting.... When it finishes, you are signed out and redirected to the home page.
What Gets Removed
When you delete your account, Groupthink:
- Deletes your user account
- Detaches you from all of your agendas (meetings)
- Removes your connections to external integrations
- Removes your calendar connections
- Detaches you from all of your organizations
What Stays
Meetings and notes that involve other people are detached from your account, not erased. Because those belong to the other participants too, that shared content stays available to them after your account is gone.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I undo this?
No. The confirmation dialog warns that the action cannot be undone, and there is no recovery flow. Only delete your account if you are sure.
Do I have to type anything to confirm?
No. There is no password prompt and no word to type. You confirm by clicking the delete button in the dialog, which is labeled with your account email.
Will my past meetings disappear for everyone?
No. Your account is detached from your meetings, but meetings and notes shared with other people remain available to those participants.
How do I delete an organization instead of my account?
That is a separate flow. See Delete an Organization.
