How To Delete Any Pixiv Account In Seconds

Like Instagram accounts, artists use Pixiv accounts to share their artworks with millions of people online. While the website is based in Japan, it still attracts 50 million users worldwide. It's relatively easy to sign up, but many users don't know how to delete their Pixiv accounts.

Inactive social media accounts don't just attract unwanted spam to your email address. Unused accounts are easily accessed by hackers, who can steal your credit card or banking information. If you're no longer using a Pixiv account, let DoNotPay help you delete it.

How Can I Delete My Pixiv Account?

Pixiv says that anyone is free to delete their Pixiv accounts by following these steps:

1. Visit the 'Leave Pixiv' page.
2. Enter your password.
3. Confirm your request.

It seems simple, but many people can't locate the 'leave Pixiv' page because it's buried in customer support articles. You can't delete your account from your settings page or profile.

If you've forgotten your password, you won't be able to delete your account until you request a new one. It usually isn't too much of a problem, but it can extend the whole deletion process.

The new password will be sent to the email address associated with your account. If that email address is defunct (or you don't remember the password.), you'll have to contact Pixiv support for more help.

You also have to wait at least two weeks for the deletion request to be processed. During that time, you won't be able to use your email address to make a new account. You may also still see unwanted emails from Pixiv in the meantime.

Deleting your Pixiv can also be confusing because Pixiv manages multiple websites. Even if you deactivate your Pixiv account, your information will remain on FANBOX and BOOTH (if you signed up with Pixiv). DoNotPay also has a Manage Subscriptions product to help you keep track of these accounts.

To recap, here are your options for deleting a Pixiv Account:

Can I Delete My Pixiv Account With DoNotPay?

What Happens if I Don't Delete an Inactive Pixiv Account?

When you sign up for a Pixiv account, you have to provide the following personal details:

• Your email address
• A name or nickname
• Date of birth
• Gender
• Payment information (if signing up for a premium membership)
• Your IP address
• Your address (if you've won a contest or purchased goods)

Pixiv discloses this information in its privacy statement, stipulating that it is only collected for the user's benefit. However, if someone were to access your account, they could use those details for criminal purposes.

The older your account is, the more likely it will be targeted by hackers during data breaches. These individuals know that you're not paying attention to it and may have forgotten about the account completely.

Pixiv required all its users with unsecured passwords to change them last year. However, since the site had already been running for 15 years, there's a good chance your old account could have been accessed.
