# Deleting your account

**Looking to delete your Account?**

Account deletion is permanent and irreversible. The multi-step process ensures you are not deleting your account by mistake. 

**What is the difference between deleting an account and deleting a workspace?**

Once you sign up with MessageBird, an *account* is created. Each account automatically contains one workspace and more can be added if needed. Deleting your account will result in you no longer having access to the entire MessageBird platform.

**Note*****:*** To fully delete your MessageBird Account, you must not be connected to any workspaces

The *workspace* is the place where you can do all things MessageBird - sending SMS, creating Flows in Flow Builder, handling voice calls and setting up conversations channels. You can be the owner of multiple workspaces and it is possible to delete a workspace without deleting your account. Doing so will irreversibly delete all the data we might be holding related to your workspace. 

**Note*****:*** Deleting a workspace is only possible if you are the owner.

Don’t want to delete your workspace, but would like to transfer workspace ownership instead? Check out [How to change ownership of your workspace](/connectivity-platform/accounts-workspaces-users-subaccounts/changing-ownership-of-your-workspace.md).

**How do I delete my account?**

For a step-by-step guide on how to delete your account and your workspaces, please take a look at this article here:[ Deleting an Account and Workspace](/connectivity-platform/accounts-workspaces-users-subaccounts/delete-an-account-and-workspace.md).
