Account Deletion vs Deactivation

What’s the difference between account deletion and deactivation?

• Account Deletion: Opting for account deletion will permanently remove your account on Simplify, including any native applications you've submitted. This means all your data and applications will be irreversibly erased.
• Deactivation: On the other hand, choosing to deactivate your account will hide your information from recruiters but preserve any native applications. Deactivation essentially makes your profile temporarily unavailable to recruiters. You can reactivate your account at a later time if you wish to make your information visible again.
