Deleting a contact removes them and their history for good. Relivo always asks you to confirm first.

:::warning
Deleting someone also deletes their timeline, emails, notes, deals and showings, and their photo. Their tasks stay on your task list, and listings where they were the seller stay without a seller. This can't be undone.
:::

## Delete one person

Use whichever is closest:

- On **Contacts** or **Leads**, click the menu at the end of their row, then **Delete**.
- In their preview, click the more button (the three dots), then **Delete contact**.
- On their full record, click the more button, then **Delete contact**.

Confirm with **Delete contact**, or **Delete lead** on **Leads**.

## Delete several at once

1. **Select them**

    On **Contacts** or **Leads**, hover over a person's row and tick the circle on the corner of their photo. Once one is selected, every row shows its circle, so you can tick the rest.

2. **Delete**

    Click **Delete** in the filter bar, beside the count of selected people. To start again, click **Clear selection**.

3. **Confirm**

    The confirmation shows how many people will go. Confirm to delete them.
