Watch out for
- Deletion is permanent. SHEIN says everything in the account is deleted and may not be recovered.

Other ways to do it

Submit a request in the Privacy Center
SHEIN says you can exercise your right to deletion through the Request Center in its Privacy Center. You need access to the email or phone number you used to register the account.
What stays out there
Deleting your SHEIN account stops SHEIN from holding your profile and order history going forward. It doesn't touch copies in marketing lists, data brokers and people-search sites that already hold your name, email or address.
Your delivery address is the detail most likely to have spread, since it can end up in people-search listings. Serus finds where your details are listed and removes them.
