Before you deactivate your account, you should know:

  • We only retain your user data for 30 days from the date of deactivation. After 30 days, your information will be permanently deleted.
  • You may reactivate your account at any time during these 30 days by logging in.
  • You do not need to deactivate your account to change your username or email address; you can change it easily and at any time in your account settings.
  • To use a username or email address on another account, you must first change them and then confirm the change prior to deactivation. See below for instructions.
  • We do not control content indexed by search engines like Google or Bing.
  • After deactivation, your account should be removed within a few minutes, however some content may be viewable on twitter.com for a few days.
To deactivate your account:
  1. Log in to Twitter on the web (deactivation is not available from mobile devices)
  2. Click on the person icon and select Settings from the drop-down menu.
  3. Click 'Deactivate my account' at the bottom of the Account settings page (shown below).
  4. Read the account deactivation information on the deactivation screen. Select 'Okay, fine, deactivate account.' 
  5. Enter your password when prompted. (Forgot your password? Request a password reset email.)
  6. Verify that you really want to deactivate and voila, it's done.
To free up your username or email address before deactivating your account:
  1. On the web, go to your Settings page from the drop-down menu under the person icon.
  2. In the username field, choose a new username (Try adding an underscore or a number to it).
  3. In the email address field, change your email address to a new address you also own.
  4. Confirm the new email address via a link we send to you (very important!).
  5. Proceed with deactivation as listed above. Your email and username will now be free to use on a new account should you choose to sign up again during the 30 day deactivation period.
