How to Delete a Vimeo Account

If you have no further need for your Vimeo account, why not trash it? It is tempting to think there is no harm in simply leaving it alone, but sharp people like you know it is best to remove your online footprint of personal information whenever possible. Right?

Yet this could be easier said than done. Maybe you tried to log in to Vimeo and realized you don't remember your username or password. Perhaps you cleverly clicked the reset-your-password option, but it failed because you no longer use the email account with which you signed up.

Online experts agree old, unused accounts should be deleted for security reasons. Yet trying to accomplish this on your own may be a long, complex process when accounts are difficult to access.

DoNotPay is the perfect solution to this headache. Your challenge can be solved with our simple and automated process.

Is Deletion Really Necessary?

One of the most important steps in helping to keep your online life secure is to get rid of those unused, older accounts. When we allow those dusty things to lie around in cyberspace, they can become tempting targets for hackers who wish to commit identity theft and other crimes.

Data Theft

All it takes is one software developer to become disgruntled or greedy, and suddenly this person is scrolling through records of private phone, email, and credit card information of people who still have an existing account. Or perhaps a bored hacker has targeted a database that contains your data because you haven't deleted the old account. Marriott International suffered a data leak that affected 500 million guests, and more breaches occur constantly.

I Wish I Lived Your Life

Today the crime of identity theft is sadly common. Bad actors in the world look to obtain sensitive information about people to piece together and make illegal use of their identities to obtain loans, credit cards, and more. Erasing your trail of old accounts reduces your online presence and helps safeguard against this crime.

Trouble Brewing Under the Radar

As we forget about old logins, we lose visibility of what may be happening with our unused accounts. Should someone manage to break in, you likely won't notice. We cannot see activity within an account we no longer use or view.
