# Uninstall Upseam

Uninstalling the App on GitHub stops Upseam for every repository and deletes
the installation's data. To install it again, see
[Install the GitHub App](install.md).

## Steps

1. **Disconnect Slack first, if you connected it.** Open **Integrations** in
   the installation and press **Disconnect Slack**. Uninstalling does not
   revoke the Slack bot token with Slack. Without this step, remove the
   Upseam app from your Slack workspace instead.
2. **Open Defaults.** In the installation, open **Defaults** and find the
   **Disconnect** section.

   **You should see** the text "Uninstalling the App on GitHub stops Upseam
   for every repository and deletes this installation's data".

3. **Press Uninstall on GitHub.** It opens GitHub's settings page for this
   installation, in the organization's settings for an organization.
4. **Uninstall there.** When GitHub reports the uninstall, Upseam deletes the
   data below.

## What Upseam deletes

- The installation with its repositories, surfaces, findings and settings.
- The stored model key and the Slack link.
- The installation's product events. Upseam asks PostHog to delete the
  pseudonymous person.

## What stays

- A removal marker with only the installation id and the time of removal, so
  that late GitHub notices do not bring the installation back.
- An analytics marker with the installation id, deleted after 13 months, so
  that late product events are not exported.
- Records of queued work and received webhook deliveries. They follow the
  periods in [How long data stays](trust.md#how-long-data-stays).
