# Privacy and deleting your data
> Get a copy of your data, delete a foundable or your whole account, and find Foundable’s privacy policy, terms and other legal pages.
**Privacy & security** in Settings is about your data. There you can get a copy of it, delete it, and read the policies that govern it. Open **Settings**, then **Privacy & security**, in the Account group.
## Get a copy of your data
Email [privacy@foundable.com](mailto:privacy@foundable.com), and the team will send you a copy. There’s no download button in the app: your copy comes by email.
## Delete a foundable
To delete one business and keep your account, press **Go to General** next to “Delete this foundable”. Only the owner can delete a foundable. See [Delete a foundable](/account/foundables#delete-a-foundable).
## Delete your account
Deleting your account erases it, along with every foundable you own. It can’t be undone, and nothing can be restored.
### Before you delete
* **Only want to stop paying?** Cancel your plan instead. See [Cancel your plan](/account/plans-and-credits#cancel-your-plan).
* **Only want to leave someone else’s foundable?** Leave it from Team. See [Leave a foundable](/account/team#leave-a-foundable).
* **Want a copy of your data?** Email [privacy@foundable.com](mailto:privacy@foundable.com) first.
* **Want to keep a domain you bought?** Transfer it out of Foundable first. See [Manage your domains](/domains/manage-domains).
### Delete it
Open **Settings**, then **Account**. Or, in **Privacy & security**, press **Go to Account**.
It’s under **Danger zone**, at the bottom of Account.
The window “Delete account?” lists how many foundables will be deleted and their names, “with their websites, mailboxes and data”. It also says your plan stops now, and that domains stop renewing.
Type **DELETE** in capital letters, then press **Delete account**. You’ll see “Deleting…”, then “Logging out…”.
### What happens when you delete your account
* You’re logged out everywhere at once.
* Your plan stops right away. “The rest of this billing period isn’t refunded.” The card you paid with is removed from Stripe.
* “A domain you bought through Foundable stays registered until the year you paid for ends, then lapses.” It doesn’t renew.
* Every foundable you own is deleted, with its website, mailbox and data. Your teammates lose access to them.
* Foundables you joined as a teammate aren’t deleted. They stay with their owners.
* Then your account is erased. “This can’t be undone.”
If you don’t own any foundables, the window says “You don’t own any foundables.”, and only your account is deleted.
