What is the difference between leaving and deleting a LastPass Families account?
As a family member or Family Manager, you can leave a LastPass Families account. However, only Family Owners can delete a LastPass Families account.
Leaving a LastPass Families account
If you decide to leave a LastPass Families account (as a family member or Family Manager), please keep in mind the following:
- Your account status will change to a LastPass Free plan, unless you upgrade to a Premium, Teams, or a Business plan tier (see pricing and features)
- Items in shared folders you created will be moved to your personal vault and will no longer be accessible by others (with whom you previously shared)
- You will lose access to any items within shared folders that were shared with you by other family members (those items will be moved to the sharer's personal vault)
- All non-shared passwords, notes, and items in your vault will remain as-is
- Any emergency access contacts that you set up will remain as-is
Deleting a LastPass Families account
If you delete a LastPass Families account (as a Family Owner), keep in mind:
- Your account is affected in the same ways as leaving a LastPass Families account (listed above)
- All existing family member and Family Manager accounts (including yours) will downgrade to LastPass Free accounts (unless you choose to upgrade to a Premium, Teams, or a Business plan tier (see pricing and features)
- All shared folders that contain items (that you created) will be migrated to your LastPass Free account and converted to standard (non-shared) folders.
