But to delete your account, you\u2019re going to have to jump through some hoops, as Clubhouse doesn\u2019t make it easy. Here\u2019s what you need to do.<\/p>\n<p>First, let\u2019s define some terms. Although deleting, deactivating, and disabling your account are often used interchangeably in the context of social media accounts, there are important differences that you need to take note of. Also, keep in mind that each platform (like Facebook or Twitter) handles deactivation and deletion differently. We\u2019re specifically talking about Clubhouse here.<\/p>\n<p>When you <em>deactivate<\/em> your Clubhouse account, your account is removed from the public eye, but the app still retains your user data, and you can reactivate your account within 30 days by simply logging back in. After the 30-day grace period, Clubhouse will then\u00a0<em>disable<\/em> your account. A disabled account means that you permanently lose access to your account and its information, and you can no longer log in to your account. Clubhouse has the \u201cright\u201d to retain your user data, though.<\/p>\n<p><em>Deleting<\/em> your account, which is what we aim to accomplish in this article, means permanently removing any and all evidence that you ever had a Clubhouse account in the first place. That includes the deletion of your user data from the Clubhouse servers.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Deactivate_Your_Account\"><\/span>How to Deactivate Your Account<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To deactivate your account, first, open the app on your smartphone, and then tap your profile image in the top-right corner of the screen.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-740618\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Tap-your-profile-picture..png?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"Tap your profile picture.\" width=\"328\" height=\"450\"\/><\/p>\n<p>On the next screen, tap the gear icon located in the top-right corner.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-740616\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Tap-the-gear-icon-in-the-top-right-corner-of-the-screen..png?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"\" width=\"327\" height=\"357\"\/><\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll now be in the Settings menu.

The same goes for deleting your account on\u00a0Twitter, which actually deletes all of your user data 30 days after deactivation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> <strong><em>What Is Twitter Spaces, and Is It Different From Clubhouse?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Clubhouse actually forces you to email their support team (support@alphaexplorationco.com) or <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/clubhouseapp.zendesk.com\/hc\/en-us\/requests\/new\">submit a request through their support form<\/a>\u00a0and request that they delete your user data. This, of course, is buried deep in their <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.notion.so\/Privacy-Policy-cd4b415950204a46819478b31f6ce14f\">privacy policy<\/a>. Sending an email is simple enough, but the option to delete your information should be as simple as pressing a button.<\/p>\n<p>To add fuel to the fire, there\u2019s no way to tell how long it will take them to process your request, or even whether they complied with your request to begin with. Hopefully, Clubhouse will change this in the future by simplifying the account deletion process and making it more transparent. Until then, this is the only way to get it done.<\/p>\n<p>This is another good reminder that you should always be careful what you share online\u00a0and what personal data you hand over to companies who don\u2019t have your best interests in mind.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> <strong><em>6 Things You Should Never Share on Facebook and Social Media<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>\n setTimeout(function(){\n  !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n  {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n  n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\n  if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\n  n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n  t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n  s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s) } (window, document,'script',\n  'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n   fbq('init', '335401813750447');\n   fbq('track', 'PageView');\n  },3000);\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
