In Audit Now you can delete your account from the Profile page. When you delete your account, you transfer your data to another user. This article explains where to click and how Transfer and Delete Account differs from Delete Organization.
Delete Your Account
- Open the account menu in the lower-left corner and click Profile. The My Profile page opens
- Scroll to the bottom of the page. You will see two red sections
- In the Transfer and Delete Account section, click the Delete button
- Follow the instructions that open on screen
The description of the Transfer and Delete Account section says: "Transfer your data to another user and delete your account."
Before you delete your account, decide which user will receive your data.
Transfer and Delete Account Is Not the Same as Delete Organization
| Section | What It Does |
|---|---|
| Transfer and Delete Account | Deletes only your own account, and you transfer your data to another user |
| Delete Organization | "Disable all user access and delete my organization." This affects every user in the organization, not only your own account |
Warning: If you only want to delete your own account, click Transfer and Delete Account, not Delete Organization.
