You can delete your Imgur account yourself â this is a self-service process (rated easy â most people can do it in a few minutes). After deletion: all content will be deleted.
Please refer to steps outlined in 'steps' above.
All your content will be permanently deleted.
Imgur states a data retention period of Indefinitely after account deletion. Back-ups and statutory records can fall outside that figure, so request written confirmation from support if you need certainty.
The stated recovery window is 30 days. Once that passes the deletion is permanent and the account cannot be restored.
Deleting your account means: All content will be deleted. Export or download anything you want to keep before you begin â it is normally not recoverable afterwards.
Have the following ready: username; password. Having it to hand avoids getting part-way through the flow and having to start again.
Imgur is recorded as GDPR compliant and recorded as CCPA compliant. If you are in the EU or California you can also file a formal erasure request under GDPR Article 17 or the CCPA â that route creates a record you can follow up on, separately from the in-product delete flow.
Common alternatives include Flickr, Google Photos, Dropbox. If you are switching because of how Imgur handles your data, check the replacement's retention and deletion policy before you migrate.
