How to delete your account

Guide to password-authenticated immediate soft deletion, email address rewriting, pruning rules, and open transaction settlement.

Learn about the account deletion process, email address recycling, and data retention rules.

1 Password-Only Soft Delete & Immediate Effect

Deleting your account requires password confirmation. Account deletion is executed as an immediate soft delete with no grace period or data export.

2 Email Address Rewriting & Pruning Rules

  • Email Rewriting: Upon deletion, your email is immediately rewritten to the format <email>::deleted::<timestamp> (User.php:165-170), freeing your original email address to be reused for a new registration if desired.
  • User Pruning Exemption: The model:prune Artisan command never hard-purges user records (User does not implement MassPrunable).
  • Open Orders & Listings: Deleting an account does not automatically cancel open active listings or pending orders. Members must settle active transactions or close listings before deleting their account.
