Overview
Polymarket is a decentralized, blockchain-based platform. Account deletion works differently here than on traditional platforms. Your profile and personal data can be removed, but certain information is permanent by nature of how blockchain technology works.
Before submitting a deletion request
You must complete the following steps before your account can be closed:
Close all open positions on the platform
Withdraw all funds from your Polymarket wallet
Please note that you will be unable to delete an account that is still holding positions or tokens and will be prompted to withdraw before proceeding.
How to delete your account
Once your positions are closed and funds are withdrawn, you can delete your account directly from your settings here: https://polymarket.com/settings?tab=account
What gets removed
Your Polymarket profile and associated personal data will be deleted in line with our Privacy Policy. Some data may be retained where required by applicable law or regulation.
What stays on the blockchain
Because Polymarket runs on a public blockchain, your past transaction history will remain visible on-chain even after your account is removed. This is how blockchain technology works and is not something that can be changed.
