How it works
Permanently removes your profile, your personal data, your children and every group enrolment. Use it when you will no longer use Classes.
Deleting lives in the Danger Zone box in the Account section of your profile (My Profile → Account). It takes two confirmations so it can't happen by accident: first you see what will be removed, then you have to type the word DELETE. Once it finishes you are logged out automatically.
Along with your profile, your children, group memberships, posts and friendships are removed, and if you are staff at a school, your access to it too. The account you log in with is deleted as well. It cannot be undone.
Good to know
The word must match exactly, in capitals and in the language the app is currently in. If the app is in Bulgarian, the word is ИЗТРИЙ.
The final delete button stays disabled until the word matches.

Keeps the one action that can't be undone apart from the other settings, so you don't press it by accident.
It sits below the Sign out row in the Account section. Below the title it says "Once you delete your account, there is no going back. Please be certain." and it contains only the Delete Account button.
Frequently asked questions
Can I restore my account after deleting it?
No. Your profile, children and group enrolments can't be brought back. If you later log in again with the same Google or Apple account, you go through registration again as a new user, your old enrolments don't come back, but your payment history stays linked to the account.
What if deleting fails?
The window shows "Something went wrong. Please try again." and your account is left unchanged. Try again in a moment.
