# Deleting your account

Learn how to transfer team ownership, delete a team or account, and export your inventory data.

***

#### **Can I leave a team without deleting my account?**

Yes — you can leave a specific team while keeping your account. Go to <mark style="color:$primary;">`Settings`</mark> > <mark style="color:$primary;">`Team`</mark> and select <mark style="color:$primary;">`Leave Team`</mark> next to your account. Your account will remain active, and you'll still have access to any other teams you belong to.

Note that if you're a team admin, at least one other member must have **Admin** access before you can leave the team.

#### **How do I delete my team?**

Go to to <mark style="color:$primary;">`Settings`</mark> > <mark style="color:$primary;">`Team`</mark> > <mark style="color:$primary;">`Delete Data`</mark> > <mark style="color:$primary;">`Delete Team`</mark>. This will permanently remove the team and all associated data, and any members of the team will lose access.

{% hint style="warning" %}
If you're the only admin on a paid team, cancel the subscription first or transfer ownership to another member.
{% endhint %}

#### **What happens to my data if my team or account is deleted?**

All data is permanently deleted and cannot be recovered. This includes items, transaction history, team settings, and any other information associated with the team or account. We strongly recommend exporting your data before deleting anything.

#### **Can I export my data?**

Yes. You can use the <mark style="color:$primary;">`Export to Excel`</mark> feature to download your item list, transaction history, and other inventory data at any time. We recommend exporting periodically so you always have a backup of your records.
