# How do I delete my account?

You can permanently delete your HuntedGift account anytime from your profile
settings. This removes all your data immediately and cannot be undone.

Account deletion is irreversible. All your gift lists, wish lists, search
history, and profile data will be permanently deleted with no way to recover
them.


DELETING YOUR ACCOUNT

 1. Go to your Profile page from the sidebar menu

 2. Scroll to the bottom and click Delete Account (red trash icon), or open the
    Account section and click Delete Account

 3. Read the confirmation warning carefully

 4. Type DELETE in all caps in the text field

 5. Click Delete Forever or Delete My Account Forever

 6. A 5-second countdown starts—click Cancel Deletion if you change your mind

If you don't cancel, your account is deleted immediately. You'll see a "Your
account has been deleted. Goodbye!" message, be signed out, and redirected to
the home page.

The confirmation button stays disabled until you type DELETE exactly (all
uppercase). This prevents accidental deletions.


WHAT GETS DELETED

Account deletion removes:

 * All saved gift lists and wish lists

 * Your complete search history

 * Profile information (name, username, email, preferences)

 * Any personalization data the AI uses

This happens immediately and cannot be reversed. There's no recovery option or
grace period.


SUBSCRIPTIONS AND BILLING

Deleting your account does not automatically cancel your Pro or Elite
subscription. If you have an active subscription:

 1. Cancel it first from Profile > Manage Subscription (opens Stripe billing
    portal)

 2. Then delete your account

You won't receive refunds for unused subscription time. See Managing your
subscription [internal://art_01KEW68Z8A8CKWBZ43NMWDCJSJ] for cancellation steps.

If you just want to downgrade to the Free plan instead of deleting everything,
cancel your subscription and keep your account. Your data stays intact.


TROUBLESHOOTING

"Please type DELETE to confirm" error: Make sure you're typing DELETE in all
capital letters, not "delete" or "Delete".

"Failed to delete account" error: Try again in a few minutes. If it continues
failing, contact support for help.

Need a break instead of permanent deletion? You can just stop using your
account. Free accounts have no monthly charges, and you can cancel paid
subscriptions anytime.
