How

Follow these steps to delete your account:

  1. Sign in to Mendeley.com. Click the down arrow next to your name in the top right-hand corner.
  2. Click 'Settings & Privacy'. This will open your Account page.
  3. Scroll down to the ‘Close Mendeley account’ section. Click on the ‘Close Mendeley account’ link and follow the on-screen instructions and sign out.

Please note: If you have access to other Elsevier products (such as ScienceDirect), please remember not to log in to Mendeley using your email address as this will activate the association of your Mendeley account, as Mendeley is part of Elsevier's "one login for all" policy.
