Deleting a site¶

Things to consider¶

• Deleting a website is permanent and cannot be undone.
• Deleting your website doesn’t delete your account or your website’s user accounts.
• If you want to save a copy of the website for later use, back up the website and download the backup before you delete it.
• If you delete a website, you cannot reuse its name for a website in the same Acquia Cloud Site Factory subscription.
• Deleting a website deletes all scheduled jobs associated with that website.
• Deleting a production website also deletes the database for all non-production websites associated with the production website.
