# Account settings

You can do two things with your account from the dashboard: change the language, and ask for your account to be deleted. You can't change your name, email or password here.

## Change the dashboard language

1. Click the globe button at the bottom of the sidebar. It shows your current language, and its tooltip says **Change language**.
2. Pick a language. Makeform saves your choice and reopens the page you're on in that language.

This only changes what you see. To change the language your respondents see, open the form's **Settings** and choose **Language** there.

## Delete your account

1. Open **Settings** in the sidebar, then click **My account**.
2. In the **Danger zone** card, click **Delete account**. The dialog lists what you'll lose, including your forms and submissions.
3. Type the code shown in the dialog, which starts with `DELETE-`, into the confirmation field. The code is different every time you open the dialog.
4. Click **Delete my account**. The button stays disabled until the code matches.

This sends a deletion request, and you'll get a confirmation email at your account address. Your account isn't deleted right away. The dialog says it takes about 24 hours, or up to 7 business days if your account has payments or a team.

Once deletion runs, you can't undo it. Your active subscriptions are canceled and you won't get a refund.

## What you can't change here

Your name is read-only. The page tells you to contact support if you need it changed.

Your profile photo is shown, but there's nowhere to upload a new one. There's also no screen for changing your account email or password.
