Overview

Account deletion is a 30-day soft-delete. When you request deletion, your account is scheduled to be permanently deleted 30 days later. You can cancel at any time during this window.

Requesting Deletion

Via the Dashboard

  1. Go to Dashboard → Settings → Account
  2. Scroll to the Danger Zone section
  3. Click Delete Account
  4. Type delete my account to confirm
  5. Click Schedule Deletion
Your account is now scheduled. You will receive a confirmation email.

Via the API

curl -X DELETE "https://api.agentpowers.ai/v1/users/me" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"confirmation": "delete my account"}'
Returns:
{
  "message": "Account deletion scheduled.",
  "scheduled_at": "2026-04-11T00:00:00Z"
}

Cancelling Deletion

Sign in to your account at any point before the deletion date to automatically cancel the request, or cancel explicitly:

Via the Dashboard

Return to Settings → Account and click Cancel Deletion.

Via the API

curl -X POST "https://api.agentpowers.ai/v1/users/me/cancel-deletion" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer TOKEN"
Signing in before the deletion date automatically cancels the request — you don’t need to do anything extra.

What Happens to Your Data

During the 30-day grace period

  • Your account is hidden from the marketplace (profile, skills not listed)
  • Existing buyers retain access to skills they purchased
  • You cannot publish new skills or submit reviews

At deletion (day 30)

Financial records (purchases, payouts, Stripe IDs) are retained for 7 years to meet legal and tax requirements. All personal identifiers are removed from these records.

Blockers

Deletion may be delayed if:
  • You have pending payouts that haven’t cleared yet — wait for the payout to process
  • You have in-progress purchases — wait for checkout to complete
The API returns a 400 with a DELETION_BLOCKED code if a blocker is detected. Resolve the blocker and retry.

Email Reminders

You will receive:
  1. Confirmation email immediately after scheduling
  2. Reminder email 3 days before the deletion date
If you don’t receive these emails, check your spam folder or contact support.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I recover my account after 30 days? No. Once the grace period passes and your account is purged, recovery is not possible. What happens to skills I published? Your skills are archived and hidden from the marketplace. Buyers who already purchased them retain download access, but the skills cannot be discovered or purchased by new users. What happens to my Stripe Connect account? Your Stripe Connect account is not automatically deleted. Log in to Stripe to manage it directly. Pending payouts are processed before your account data is purged. Can I create a new account with the same email after deletion? Yes, once your account is fully purged you can sign up again with the same email address.
