How to delete your Mojo (Modular) account

About deleting your Mojo (Modular) account

Mojo, developed by Modular, is a high-performance programming language designed to unify the syntax of Python with the performance of C. It is specifically built for AI infrastructure, allowing developers to scale specialized hardware through a unified codebase. Users typically interact with Modular by accessing their cloud-based developer environments to test kernels and compile Mojo code.

Deleting your account is a critical step for developers who have completed their projects or want to move away from the Modular ecosystem. Reasons for deletion include:

• Migrating from Modular cloud environments to local self-hosted compiler installations.
• Removing proprietary AI kernel code or experimental scripts from cloud-based repositories.
• Reducing your digital footprint by purging developer profiles linked to institutional or personal email addresses.
• Closing inactive accounts that were created solely for testing or sandbox access.

What happens to your data

When you initiate the deletion process for your Mojo (Modular) account, Modular typically triggers a removal request for your primary profile identifiers. Because Mojo is heavily tied to compiler performance analytics and infrastructure telemetry, understanding what persists is vital.

Data removed during deletion:

• User profile information, including names and email addresses.
• Personal configuration settings for the Modular developer dashboard.
• Saved cloud-based script snippets or workspace configurations.

Data potentially retained:

• Anonymized performance telemetry logs generated during code compilation.
• Aggregated usage statistics that may have been decoupled from your specific user ID.
• Legal or financial audit trails if you were on a paid or enterprise-tier plan for hardware compute resources.

Privacy considerations

Modular handles sensitive intellectual property, especially when developers run proprietary AI models through their cloud platform. Protecting this data is a primary concern for privacy-conscious engineers.

• Audit your active projects: Before deletion, ensure you have exported or backed up all your Mojo source files.
• Revoke API tokens: If you have configured environment variables or API keys for modular interactions, revoke them through the settings dashboard before closing your account.
• Review GDPR rights: As a European user or one subject to specific data protection laws, you may exercise your 'right to be forgotten' regarding your personal identifiers stored by Modular.
• Monitor linked services: Ensure that no third-party integrations, such as GitHub or identity providers, have active OAuth permissions granted to your Modular account.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I recover my Mojo workspace after deleting my account?

No, deleting your account is a permanent action. All cloud-hosted workspaces and saved Mojo files will be purged from Modular servers once the deletion request is finalized.

Does deleting my account remove my compiled Mojo binaries?

If you have uploaded compiled artifacts or binaries to a cloud storage component provided by Modular, these will generally be deleted; however, you must ensure you have local copies prior to deletion.

Will my deletion request affect my access to the Modular community forums?

Yes, since your community account is often tied to your central Modular developer profile, closing your account will typically deactivate your access to forums and official support channels.

How long does the deletion process take?

Once you confirm the request via email, Modular generally processes the deletion request in accordance with their internal data retention policies, usually within 30 days.

Can I stop the deletion process once I click the confirmation link?

No, the confirmation link acts as an irreversible trigger for the automated data deletion pipelines at Modular.

Does Modular sell my code or AI model logic?

Modular's privacy policy generally emphasizes that they do not own the intellectual property you develop using Mojo, but it is important to review their specific Terms of Service regarding cloud compute access.
