Serus is a privacy company with paid tools to find and remove your personal data. This guide shows the free way to do it yourself.

Step by step

  1. 1

    Check you can use self-service deletion

    SHEIN says the self-service option is for customers based in the EU, UK or US. Elsewhere, SHEIN says you can't delete the account on your own and should contact customer service with your reason.

  2. 2

    Clear pending orders and your wallet balance

    Self-service deletion is only available when you have no pending orders and no remaining wallet balance.

  3. 3

    Back up anything you want to keep

    SHEIN says that once the deletion is processed, everything in the account is deleted and may not be recovered.

  4. 4

    Open My Account > Account Security

    Sign in on the SHEIN app or site and open My Account, then Account Security.

  5. 5

    Choose Delete Account and verify the request

    Select Delete Account and follow the prompts to verify the request.

Watch out for

  • Deletion is permanent. SHEIN says everything in the account is deleted and may not be recovered.
  • Open orders and a leftover wallet balance block self-service deletion until they're resolved.
  • Outside the EU, UK and US, SHEIN says you have to go through customer service instead of deleting the account yourself.

Other ways to do it

  1. 1

    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.

Frequently asked

Can I delete my SHEIN account in the app?

SHEIN's help page says customers in the EU, UK and US can start deletion from the app or site under My Account > Account Security > Delete Account.

Why can't I delete my SHEIN account?

SHEIN says self-service deletion needs no pending orders and no wallet balance. It also says customers outside the EU, UK and US should contact customer service.

Is there another way to ask SHEIN to delete my data?

Yes. SHEIN says you can submit a deletion request through the Request Center in its Privacy Center, using the email or phone number tied to the account.
