For someone who has died
Depop says only immediate family or the family's solicitor or executor can request closure. You'll need proof of the relationship and proof of death.
What stays out there
Closing an account stops new data piling up at Depop. It doesn't reach copies that data brokers, people-search sites and old search results already hold, such as a public profile or an email address that was scraped or sold on.
Serus finds where your details are listed and removes them. See the data broker opt-out guides for the sites that matter most where you live.
