Delete an Account or Organization
Deleting a Bitwarden account or organization permanently deletes the account or organization and all data that is associated with it. Bitwarden does not "soft delete" any data.
Deleting an account or organization does not automatically cancel a subscription. Learn how to cancel a subscription before deleting an account.
If you are locked out of your vault and deleting your account so that you can create a new one, contact us and we can help transfer your subscription to the new account.

If you delete a Bitwarden account that has a premium subscription associated with it, contact us and we will reapply your existing subscription to the new account.
