How to delete your Modulz account

About deleting your Modulz account

Modulz is a visual code editor designed to bridge the gap between design systems and production-ready code. By enabling teams to create design systems that output actual React components, Modulz streamlines the workflow between designers and developers. Users rely on the platform to store design tokens, component libraries, and structural code snippets that form the backbone of their digital products.

However, users may choose to delete their Modulz account for several reasons, such as transitioning to a different design-to-code workflow, migrating to self-hosted alternatives, or minimizing their digital footprint by removing proprietary code assets from third-party cloud environments. Whether your team is sunsetting a project or you are consolidating your development tools, understanding the deletion process is essential for maintaining control over your intellectual property.

Reasons to delete your Modulz data:

• You have migrated your design system to a localized or open-source component repository.
• You wish to reduce your exposure to third-party data processing of your UI components.
• You are moving away from the Modulz ecosystem as part of a company-wide tool consolidation strategy.
• You want to ensure that no legacy design tokens or private component structures remain on cloud servers.

What happens to your data

When you initiate the deletion of your Modulz account, the platform typically targets the removal of your user identity and the associated configuration data stored within your workspace. Because Modulz handles sensitive UI logic and component dependencies, it is important to understand what is purged.

Data points typically addressed during deletion:

• User profile information including your email, login credentials, and personal settings.
• Custom design tokens, color palettes, and typography configurations you have defined.
• Private component libraries and the associated React code exports stored in the cloud.
• History of version control logs related to your account's interactions with the platform.

While Modulz aims to purge data, note that cached files, system logs, or backups mandated by legal requirements or for system integrity may persist temporarily. It is recommended to download your component code and token definitions locally before submitting a deletion request, as account removal is often permanent and irreversible.

Privacy considerations

Using a visual development platform like Modulz involves entrusting a service with your frontend architecture. Because your component libraries represent the unique branding and functional logic of your applications, data privacy regarding your codebase is paramount.

Privacy tips for Modulz users:

• Always export your work locally before deleting your account to avoid data loss.
• Review your shared team settings; deleting your account might leave orphaned workspace content if you are the sole administrator.
• Ensure you have revoked any third-party integrations, such as GitHub or Figma, before closing your account to prevent lingering API connections.
• Be aware that Modulz may process your usage statistics to improve their editor performance; evaluate their current privacy policy to see how this telemetry is stored.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will deleting my Modulz account remove my exported code from my GitHub repo?

No, any code you have successfully pushed to your own GitHub or external repositories through Modulz remains there. Modulz deletion only affects the workspace and assets held on the Modulz platform itself.

Can I recover my component library after deleting my account?

Generally, no. Once the account deletion process is finalized in the Modulz system, the data is purged from their primary databases. You should treat the deletion as permanent.

How long does it take for Modulz to process a manual deletion request?

If you have to email support to delete your account, response times vary based on their current ticket volume, usually taking a few business days.

Do I need to delete individual projects before deleting my account?

It is best practice to delete or archive projects manually to ensure you have accounted for all assets, although closing your account will eventually terminate access to all projects associated with that login.

Will my collaborators still see the work I created after I delete my account?

If you were the sole owner of a workspace, deleting your account may revoke access for others. Coordinate with your team before deleting an account tied to shared company design systems.

Does Modulz retain my usage data for marketing purposes?

Modulz generally tracks usage to improve the editor experience. Deleting your account typically stops this collection, but check their updated privacy policy for specific details regarding long-term record retention.
