Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between deactivation and deletion?

Deactivation: Temporarily disables your profile. People can't see your timeline, but Messenger remains active. You can reactivate anytime.

Deletion: Permanently erases your account. All data is removed from Facebook's servers after 30 days. This action cannot be undone after the grace period.

Can I recover my account after deletion?

You have a 30-day grace period after requesting deletion. If you log in during this time, your deletion request will be canceled. After 30 days, your account and all information are permanently deleted and cannot be recovered.

What data does Facebook keep after deletion?

According to Facebook's policy, they retain some information for:

  • Legal compliance and security purposes
  • Copies of some material (like log records) in their database
  • Information others have shared about you (like messages they sent you)

However, your profile, photos, posts, and all personal data will be permanently removed.

What happens to Messenger when I delete Facebook?

Your Messenger account is tied to your Facebook account. When you delete Facebook:

  • Your Messenger profile will be deactivated
  • People can no longer search for you on Messenger
  • Your message history will remain visible to others
  • You'll lose access to all Messenger features
