Delete Ancestry Account

If you want to delete Ancestry account, you need to follow a few steps to ensure that all your personal data, including your family tree and DNA information (if applicable), is removed from their system. First, log into your Ancestry account and navigate to the Account Settings page. From there, look for the Delete Account option, which might require you to enter your password again for verification. Ancestry may also ask you to confirm your decision through an email verification link. Keep in mind that once you delete your account, all your stored data, including family trees, records, and any DNA results, will be permanently erased and cannot be recovered. If you have an active subscription, you may need to cancel it first before proceeding with deletion, as Ancestry does not issue refunds for unused portions of a subscription. Additionally, if you've taken a DNA test and want your genetic data removed, you might need to submit a separate request to delete your DNA information. Before finalizing your decision, consider downloading any important records or data that you might want to keep for future reference. If you encounter issues, you can always contact Ancestry's customer support for assistance in ensuring your account is fully deleted according to their policies.
