Delete your account

You can delete your Rocketpunch account at any time. Deleting your account removes your followers, career information such as work experience and education, and every post and comment you have written. Once the deletion is complete, none of it can be recovered. You can request account deletion from Settings > My Info & Login > Manage Account.
You cannot delete your account while you are registered as an admin of a company profile. For details, see “Deleting a profile that is registered as a company admin” below.

How a deletion request is processed

To prevent someone else from requesting deletion without your permission, your account is preserved for 7 days after the request. If you log in again during this period, you can recover your account. For details on how your personal data is handled when you delete your account, see the Privacy Policy. It can take up to 30 days for the deletion to be reflected in search engines. If you want your information hidden right away, you can submit a request to each search engine.

Deleting a profile that is registered as a company admin

You cannot delete a personal profile while you are registered as a company admin. Remove your own permission from the company profile first, and then the deletion can go ahead. If you are the primary owner of the company profile, you have to hand the primary owner role to another member before you can remove your permission. For details, see Managing member permissions.
  1. Go to Enterprise Services > Permissions.
  2. Select Remove permission to leave that company.
  3. If you have permissions at several companies, remove them at every one.
  4. Delete your account.
Remove permission only takes you out of the company’s admin list. The company profile itself stays. Removing a company profile takes a separate deletion request. For details, see Deleting a company profile.

Frequently asked questions

Logging in is how you prove that you are the person authorized to manage an account. Rocketpunch does not delete accounts or information based on requests where we cannot confirm your identity. If you cannot log in, you can submit documents that prove your identity, get access to the account, and then delete it yourself.
If the profile was not created by you, or you suspect impersonation and cannot log in at all, follow the instructions in Report an impersonated profile.
