Probably you have decided to delete your Facebook account temporarily or permanently. Your reasons may be among those that are rampant and prevalent these days: your Facebook account has been hacked or you may have forgotten your password.

It is very important to note that whichever decision you choose to take or whichever path you decide to go is different from the other. Deleting your Facebook account temporarily means DEACTIVATION. While deleting your Facebook permanently means total DELETION. As they are different, so do they have different characteristics. And so, we'll take a look at their differences.


Have you deleted your Facebook account temporarily and permanently?

Choosing to deactivate your Facebook account means that:
  • You can reactivate the account whenever you want
  • People will not be able to see your Timeline nor search for you
  • Some information like the messages you exchanged with friends may remain visible.

Choosing to delete your Facebook account means that:
  • Access to your account can't be regained once its deleted
  • Deleting your account may be delayed for a few days after you have made the request. This deletion request will be cancelled if you log into your Facebook account during this period of time.
  • Deleting your data in the back-up system may take up to 90 days and for that reason, your information will not be accessible during this time.
  • Some things are not stored in your account. For example, your friend may still have the messages you both shared after deletion of your account.
  • Copies of some materials like your log records may still remain in Facebook's database but they are disassociated from personal identifiers.
Now, let us show you how to deactivate and delete your Facebook account temporarily
