Here is all the info I could find on the subject. Hope it helps.

Deactivating Accounts   

 

What is the difference between deactivation and deletion? If you deactivate your account: Your profile and all information associated with it disappears from... If you deactivate your account:

• Your profile and all information associated with it disappears from the Facebook service immediately.
• People on Facebook will not be able to search for you or view any of your information.
• We save your profile information (friends, photos, interests, etc.), just in case you want to come back to Facebook at some point. If you choose to reactivate your account, everything will look just the way it did when you left.

A lot of people deactivate their accounts for temporary reasons and expect their profiles to be there when they return to the service. This option gives you the flexibility to leave and come back whenever you want.

If you permanently delete your account:

• You will not be able to regain access to your account again.
• All personally identifiable information associated with it is removed from our database. This includes information like your name, email address, mailing address, and IM screen name.
• Copies of some material (photos, notes, etc.) may remain in our servers for technical reasons, but this material is disassociated from any personal identifiers and completely inaccessible to other people using Facebook.

Note: Facebook does not use content associated with accounts that have been deactivated or deleted. /help/?faq=15663

1. From your Account dropdown menu, select "Account Settings."
2. At the bottom on your Settings page, click "deactivate."
3. On the next page, take a minute to enter a reason and review settings for legacy content and settings.
4. Click "Confirm."

When you deactivate your account, your profile and all information associated with it disappears from the Facebook service immediately. People on Facebook will not be able to search for you or view any of your information.

If you’d like to come back to Facebook anytime after you’ve deactivated your account, you can reactivate your account by logging in with your email and password. Your profile will be restored in its entirety (friends, photos, interests, etc.). Remember that you will need to have access to the login email address for your account in order to reactivate it. /help/?faq=13015

If you have received a Facebook reactivation email in error, it is possible that another person has attempted to log in using your email address and password. We recommend that you reset your password to further secure your account. The password you select should be unique, complex, and kept entirely to yourself. You should also make sure that any email addresses associated with your account are secure. Remember that anyone who can read your email can probably also access your Facebook account. /help/?faq=15664 Deleting Accounts How do I permanently delete my account?

If you do not think you will use Facebook again and would like your account deleted, keep in mind that you will not be able to reactivate your account or retrieve any of the content or information you have added. If you would like your account permanently deleted with no option for recovery, log in to your account and then submit your request here.


If you are currently unable to access your account, you will need to reset your password in order to log in. In order to do so, click the "Forgot your password?" link that appears above the field where you would normally enter your password. Once you’ve followed the instructions to reset your password and can log in, you can deactivate or delete your account using the steps outlined above.

 

What happens when my account has a pending deletion request? Once you have submitted a request to permanently delete your account, no further action is required... Once you have submitted a request to permanently delete your account, no further action is required on your end. Our system delays the deletion process in case you change your mind and no longer want to permanently delete your account. Note that logging in to your account again will undo a pending deletion request.

Once your account is permanently deleted, there is no way to undo this action. You will not be able to reactivate the account or retrieve any of the content or information you have added to it.
