# Deactivate your account

|
|
{settings_tab|account-and-privacy}
|
|
|
|
1. Under **Account**, click **Deactivate account**.

## What happens when you deactivate an account
|
|
|
|
* Accounts are local to an organization; so deactivating a Zulip
|
|
account in the `foo.zulipchat.com` organization will have no effect
|
|
on any Zulip account you might have in the `bar.zulipchat.com`
|
|
organization.
|
|
|
|
* Any bots that you maintain will be disabled.
|
|
|
|
* Deactivating your account won't delete messages you've sent or files
|
|
you've shared. If permitted in your organization, delete content you'd
|
|
like to remove before deactivating your account.
|
|
|
|
* You cannot register a Zulip account using the email address of a
|
|
deactivated account in that organization. If you change your mind
|
|
about deactivating an account, an organization administrator can
|
|
[reactivate](/help/deactivate-or-reactivate-a-user#reactivate-a-user)
|
|
your account at any time.
|
|
|
|
!!! warn ""
|
|
|
|
If you are the only owner in the organization, you cannot
|
|
deactivate your account. You'll need to
|
|
[add another owner](/help/change-a-users-role) first.
