Before You Delete
💡 Tip: Before deleting your account, consider:
- Export your data to keep a backup
- Cancel your subscription to stop billing immediately
- Transfer workspace ownership if you are a team Owner
Team Workspace Considerations
If you are a workspace Owner:
- Transfer ownership to another member before deleting your account
- If you are the only Owner, the entire workspace and all team data will be scheduled for deletion
Can I recover my account after deletion?
During the 30-day grace period, yes. Contact support@clarife.app. After 30 days, recovery is not possible.
Is my billing information deleted too?
Transaction records are retained for legal and tax compliance. Personal billing details (name, address) are anonymized after deletion.
What happens to my shared links?
All shared links stop working immediately when your account is deactivated. Recipients will see a "document not found" message.
Do I need to cancel my subscription first?
No. Account deletion automatically cancels any active subscription. However, you will not receive a refund for the current billing period.
