1. Permanently delete the account
2. Temporarily deactivate account
How to permanently delete your Facebook account
Now, if you still intend to use your Facebook account later in the
future, you should use the second option which I’m going to explain
afterwards. Using this method deletes your Facebook account: photos,
videos, updates, notes… everything you’ve ever shared on Facebook (I
really don’t know if Facebook actually deletes your personal info from
their database anyway).
- Go to THIS PAGE
- Hit the Delete My Account button
- Enter your password and fill in the captcha.
You account should now be permanently deleted within 14 days. If you
change your mind, you can log in to Facebook before 14 days but if you
don’t, your account will be completely deleted and this is not
reversible.
How to Temporarily Deactivate your Facebook Account
This is the option I went for cuz it’s safer and sounded more like what I
needed. You can always log back in whenever you need to use the account
again but while it’s deactivated, your friends can’t interact with you;
it’s like taking a break from FB.
- Go to your Account Settings from the top-right menu
- Click on Security, then “Deactivate your account” as shown below:
- On the next page, select your reason for deactivating your account and hit the “Confirm” button.
- Enter you password, fill the captcha verification and that’s it. Your
account will be deactivated but you can always activate it back anytime
you want by simply logging in to Facebook with your normal log in
details.
