What happens when I delete my account?

If you delete your Facebook account: Your profile will be removed from public view –– meaning it won’t be listed in search results and friends can’t see it. You’ll be able to reinstate your account after 90 days , but your name may show up as “Name (deleted).” In the meantime, photos you’ve been tagged in will continue to appear on Facebook unless someone removes them or tags you in a new one. Posts that were made by others with your name attached or similar names will still appear on Facebook until after you delete your account. You’ll also no longer be able to create new content, such as posts or photos.
