Account Management
Deactivating, deleting, or recovering your account
Your account is yours to control. If you need to take a break, leave WiseWorld, or recover an inactive account, here are your options.
Account deactivation
Deactivation is a temporary pause:
- check_circleYour profile becomes invisible to others
- check_circleYou won't appear in search or connections
- check_circleYour data is preserved
- check_circleYou can reactivate anytime by logging in
This is a good option if you're taking a break but might return.
Account deletion
Deletion is permanent. When you request deletion:
- check_circleA 30-day grace period begins
- check_circleYou can cancel deletion during this period by logging in
- check_circleAfter 30 days, your account is permanently deleted
- check_circleAll personal data is anonymized or removed
- check_circleThis cannot be undone
Immediate deletion
If you want to skip the 30-day grace period, you can request immediate deletion. You'll need to confirm by typing 'DELETE'. This is instant and irreversible.
Reactivating your account
If your account is deactivated (not deleted), simply log in to reactivate it. Your data and history will be restored.
If deletion is pending (within the 30-day grace period), logging in will cancel the deletion request and restore your account.
Data export
Before deleting your account, you may want to export your data. Contact support if you need help with this.
