Delete my account

You can delete your KoLesson account at any time, in the app or from this page. Here is how, and what happens to your data.

Last updated 9 October 2026

In short

  • In the app or on the website: Settings, then "Delete my account".
  • Without signing in: enter your email address below and confirm with the link we send you.
  • You are signed out everywhere at once. The account is erased 14 days later.
  • Signing in again within the 14 days keeps the account.

In the app or on the website

  1. Sign in and open Settings from the account menu.
  2. Scroll to Delete my account and press the button.
  3. Type the word DELETE to confirm.

On a community's own address, Settings shows a link to the place where the whole account is deleted, because one account covers every community you belong to.

Without signing in

Enter the email address of your account. We send a link to that address; the account is deleted only after you open the link and confirm. This keeps anyone else from deleting your account.

What is deleted, and when

At once: you are signed out on every device and every address.

For 14 days: nothing else changes. If you sign in again, the deletion is cancelled and your account is as it was.

After 14 days we erase: your name (it becomes "Deleted member"), your email address, photo, bio, location, links and handle; your memberships of every community; your sign-in sessions and codes; your blocks; your waiting requests to join; your notifications and queued emails; and your record of active days.

What stays: the posts, comments, reactions and direct messages you wrote, and your points and course progress records, no longer linked to your name or email address. They stay so that conversations other members took part in still make sense. If you want them removed as well, delete them before you delete your account, or ask us on the Support page.

Backups: copies of the database are kept for up to 12 months and then overwritten.

If you own a community, your account cannot be deleted until the community has another owner or has been closed. Write to us on the Support page and we will help.
