  <title>Remove an account</title>

  <p>You can remove an online account which you no longer want to use.</p>

  <note style="tip">
    <p>Many online services provide an authorization token which your desktop stores
    instead of your password. If you remove an account, you should also revoke
    that certificate in the online service. This will ensure that no other
    application or website can connect to that service using the authorization
    for your desktop.</p>

    <p>How to revoke the authorization depends on the service provider. Check
    your settings on the provider’s website for authorized or connected apps
    or sites. Look for an app called “GNOME” and remove it.</p>
