Deactivate your account

In Zulip, you have a dedicated account for each organization you belong to. Deactivating your Zulip account in one organization will have no effect on any other Zulip accounts you may have.

Once you deactivate your account, you cannot register in the same organization with the email address you used before. If you are re-joining an organization, ask an organization administrator to reactivate your account.

  1. Go to Account & privacy.
  2. Under Account, click Deactivate account.
  3. Approve by clicking Confirm.
