Strong Password Tips
Use at least 12 characters with a mix of letters, numbers, and symbols. Consider using a password manager to generate and store secure passwords.
Active Sessions
View and manage devices logged into your account:
- Go to Settings → Security
- Scroll to Active Sessions
- Review the list of logged-in devices
- Click Sign Out on any you don't recognise
Each session shows:
- Device type (desktop, mobile, tablet)
- Browser and operating system
- Location (approximate)
- Last active time
Security Alert
If you see sessions from locations you don't recognise, sign them out immediately and change your password. Someone may have access to your account.
Connected Accounts
View services connected to your Guildbase account:
- Discord: Used for identity verification and notifications
You can disconnect these at any time, but some features may stop working.
Deleting Your Account
To permanently delete your account:
- Go to Settings → Account
- Scroll to Danger Zone
- Click Delete Account
- Enter your password to confirm
This Cannot Be Undone
Account deletion is permanent. All your data, including guilds you own, will be deleted. Transfer guild ownership first if you want to preserve them.
What Gets Deleted
When you delete your account:
- Your profile and personal data
- Guilds you own (and all their applications)
- Your submitted applications (anonymised)
- Email and notification preferences
You'll be removed from any guilds where you're a team member, but those guilds will remain for other members.
