Want to remove some but not all of your account content? Learn more about deleting:Deleting your account (or any individual piece of content, like a video or comment) will remove it from public view on Vimeo. After deletion, we may retain some of your content on our internal servers for a period of time in case you wish to restore it or for certain legal purposes. Your account will not be viewable to the public during this time. We recommend that you exercise caution when deleting your account because we cannot guarantee that you will be able to restore your content once you have deleted it.
Please note that deleting videos, avatars, comments, or descriptions may not ensure complete or comprehensive removal because third parties may have reposted your material and search engines may have indexed or cached it before you deleted it. We have no control over third party sites or search engine results.
