Saying Goodbye to Salam? A Guide to Deactivating Your Account
If you’re considering taking a break from Salams, or permanently stepping away, there are a few options to consider before hitting that delete button. Let’s explore the ways you can manage your account and decide on the best path for you.
Taking a Break:
- Pause your Discoverability: This keeps your profile hidden from others while you decide your next move. You can reactivate anytime and pick up where you left off.
- Unsubscribe from emails and notifications: Reduce the Salams presence in your inbox and on your phone while you mull it over.
Moving On:
- Deactivate your account: This temporarily suspends your profile and data. You can reactivate within 30 days if you have a change of heart.
- Delete your account: This permanently removes your profile, matches, conversations, and data from Salams. It’s a one-way street, so be sure you’re ready.
Before you commit:
- Download your data: Salams lets you download a copy of your profile information and conversations. This can be a good keepsake or helpful for reference later.
- Cancel any subscriptions: Make sure you’ve ended any paid memberships to avoid future charges.
Remember:
- It’s your decision: Take your time and choose the option that feels right for you, without pressure.
- Be mindful: Deactivating or deleting your account can’t be undone after 30 days. Make sure you’re confident in your choice.
- Stay safe: If you’re leaving because of safety concerns, remember you can report inappropriate behavior or block users directly within the app.
Focus on you:
Whether you’re taking a temporary hiatus or saying a final farewell, prioritize your well-being and digital comfort. Salams is just one part of your online experience, and there’s a whole world (both online and offline) waiting to be explored!
