How to delete your Google+ profile


In light of recent potential data breaches -- as well as Google+'s lackluster overall success -- many Google+ users may be considering deleting their profiles.  Deleting your Google+ profile is easy to do, and it won't restrict your use of other Google accounts, beyond any features dependent on Google+.  (Note that deleting your Google+ profile is permanent and can't be undone.)


To delete your Google+ profile:

- Log in to your Google+ account.
- Select Settings on the left hand sidebar.
- Select DELETE YOUR GOOGLE+ PROFILE at the bottom of the page.
- If asked to verify your identity, provide the requested information (password and two-step verification, depending on your account settings).
- Click the check box next to the statement affirming that you understand this action can't be undone and any deleted data can't be restored.
- Click the Delete button.
- Select a reason for deleting your Google+ account.
- Click the Submit button.
