If you’re an Instagram user, it’s important to be aware of the deletion process. If you’re not careful, your account could be deleted without warning. Here are some tips to help keep your account safe:

  1. Make sure you have a valid email address for your Instagram account. If you don’t, someone could easily delete your account if they receive an email from Instagram with a Delete Account message.
  2. Keep your phone handy when deleting your account. If you lose your phone or it’s stolen, you’ll need to remember to delete your account so that no one can access it again.
  3. Be sure to follow the instructions on the Instagram website for deleting an account. The website is very clear about how to do this and has helpful videos that show you how to do it correctly.
