How to remove your Washington Post account

From their FAQ:

“If you do not wish to receive the foregoing and therefore unregister from the site, please contact Customer Care and ask to have your registration account removed. Once your account has been removed, you will no longer have access to washingtonpost.com, however, you may reregister at any time.”

Customer Care can be found here: https://help.washingtonpost.com/ics/support/ticketnewwizard.asp?style=classic&deptID=15080 – fill out the form and ask for account removal. Be brief and polite, and include your account details like username and password.

Helpful Trick: Removing online data

Publicly visible text/images often aren’t properly removed even when you succeed in removing an account. Try editing or removing them manually before removing the account itself. If you’re unsure what happens to your tracks: this can be found mostly in the Terms of Service/Privacy Policy; otherwise you can always contact Washington Post and ask personally. By the way, removal requests don’t necessarily mean your data will actually be removed (e.g. due to legal obligations).
