Account & billing
Delete your account
Permanently delete your Contral account, what gets removed, and what to do first if you have a license or subscription.
You can permanently delete your Contral account yourself from the dashboard. Deletion can't be undone.
Before you delete your Contral account#
Warning
AppSumo lifetime customers: contact support before deleting. Your AppSumo license stays tied to the deleted account and can't be moved to a new account by redeeming again. If you want to keep using your license under a different email, contact support instead of deleting.
- Paid subscribers: cancel your subscription first in Dashboard → Subscription, so you aren't billed again. See Subscriptions, upgrades & cancellation.
- Want a copy of your data? Email contact@contral.ai and ask for an export before you delete.
- Just want a refund for the AppSumo deal? You don't need to delete your account. Request the refund on AppSumo. See Refunds & deactivation.
How to delete your Contral account#
- Sign in at contral.ai/account.
- Scroll to Danger Zone.
- Click Delete Account.
- Read the confirmation: "Are you sure? This will permanently delete your account, all usage data, and cancel any active subscription."
- Click Yes, Delete Everything.
You're signed out, and the account can no longer be used in the extension or desktop IDE.
What account deletion removes#
Deleting your account removes:
- Your Contral sign-in (the account itself). All signed-in sessions are revoked.
- Your profile and plan record.
- Your usage counters and usage history.
- Your telemetry events.
Payment records may be kept where the law requires it. See the Privacy Policy.
Signing up again after deleting your account#
You can create a new account with the same email address later. It starts fresh on the Free plan with no progress or history.
If account deletion fails#
If deletion shows an error, sign out, sign back in (to refresh your session) and try again. If it still fails, email contact@contral.ai from the account's email address and ask us to delete it.
