Your data

Take it with you

Everything you build in Mindola is yours. Open Settings then Export in the app to download your full mind - your facts, your sources, your spaces, your conversations.

You get a complete copy of what you have captured, in a portable format you can read and keep outside Mindola. There is no lock-in: a second brain you cannot take with you is not really yours.

Good moments to export:

• Before a big cleanup, as a safety net.
• On a regular schedule, if you like keeping your own backups.
• Any time you just want a copy.

Delete at any level

You can remove things at whatever scale you need:

• One item - delete a fact or source from your mind.
• A space - archive it to hide it, or delete it to remove it and what is inside. See Spaces.
• A lens - retire it from its page. The link stops working immediately, and visitors see a not-found page.
• Everything - open Settings then Danger zone to clear your data or delete your whole account.

Archive or delete

• Archive keeps something but pulls it out of active use. It stops showing in answers and stops reaching lenses, but it is not gone.
• Delete removes it for good.

When you are unsure, archive. When you are sure, delete.

Retiring a lens does not touch your mind

Retiring a lens only kills the share link. Everything the lens was built from stays safe in your mind, ready to power a new lens whenever you want.

Deleting your account

The Danger zone closes your account and removes your data. This cannot be undone, so export first if you want a copy.
