To permanently delete 1password account & all data
After I delete the account from the website, are my password vaults still cached on my local devices or are they automatically deleted as well?

Community ManagerHi Lexxx,
If your goal is to be absolutely sure no local data is left on any device, I'd recommend following our article on how to uninstall 1Password and delete all local data. Depending on the device and operating system, the steps to delete all local data will vary.
Since you tagged this post iOS, I can tell you that you just need to delete the 1Password app to also remove all the local data from any iPhone or iPad.
I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any questions!
Thank you so much Simon.
So that is for the iPhone app version But I also have on my Windows Desk top so I do the following steps:
1. SIGN IN
https://my.1password.com/profile
USER NAME:
PASSWORD:
2. MANAGE ACCOUNT PAGE
BOTTOM OF PAGE
PERMANENTLY DELETE ACCOUNT
CONFIRM
But do I also need to remove anything remaining on the Cache ?

Hi Lexxx 👋
For Windows, the steps are a little different! I've copied the steps from this article below:
To uninstall 1Password for Windows- Open the Start menu.
- Click the gear button (Windows Settings) > Apps > Installed apps.
If you're using Windows 10, click (Windows Settings) > Apps. - Click 1Password, then click Uninstall.
If you're using Windows 7 or 8.1, open the Start menu and choose Control Panel. Click Uninstall a program. Click 1Password, then click Uninstall.
To remove all local data from the device, follow these steps on your Windows PC.
- Open the Start menu, type %LOCALAPPDATA%, and choose Open.
- Find the folder named 1Password and move it to the Recycle Bin.
Please let me know if you have any questions!
