How can I delete my FetLife account?

To delete your FetLife account, you must first log in to your account. Once logged in, navigate to the website's Settings by clicking on the hamburger menu (three horizontal lines) in the upper right corner and selecting 'Update Settings' from the dropdown menu. Scroll down to the bottom of the Settings page and you will find a section titled 'Deactivate/Delete Account'. Here, choose the 'Delete' option rather than 'Deactivate', since deletion is a permanent action while deactivation allows you to return later. After selecting 'Delete', you may be asked to confirm your password and to provide a reason for your departure, though the latter is optional. Once these steps are completed, confirm the deletion to permanently remove your FetLife account. Remember that once an account is deleted, it cannot be recovered, so be certain of your decision before proceeding.
