# Delete your account

You can delete your account whenever you want. Before you do, it helps to know what happens to each thing.

## How to delete it

- **In your account:** sign in to Joonow, open your account settings and use the delete option. We ask for confirmation to avoid deleting by mistake.
- **Through Contact us:** if you cannot sign in, write to us through [Contact us](/en/contact#privacy) (topic Privacy and data requests), using your account's email address. We may ask you to confirm your identity.

## What gets deleted

- Your profile, résumé and uploaded files.
- Saved jobs.
- Job alerts: they stop immediately, and you no longer receive emails or notifications.
- My analyses: the results of the AI tools.
- Sign-in data, such as the link to Google, Microsoft, Apple or LinkedIn.

Account data is deleted within 30 days. Backups are overwritten within the same period.

## What does not depend on us

- **Applications already sent through Joonow:** the company that received your résumé keeps it, under its own privacy policy. To ask for deletion, contact the company directly.
- **Applications made on the company's site:** they were made outside Joonow, so deletion must be requested on that site.
- **Access logs:** the law requires us to keep these logs for 6 months, even after deletion.

## Just need a break?

If the problem is the emails, you do not need to delete everything: just delete or pause your [job alerts](/en/help/job-alerts). Every alert email also has a one-click unsubscribe link.
