### How to Delete All Wallets from Nova Wallet

Nova Wallet does not collect or store any of your data on a server. All your wallet information is stored either locally on your device or on your personal cloud storage. Should you no longer wish to use Nova Wallet, here is how you can delete all your wallets.

1. Open the Nova Wallet application.
2. `Export` all the wallets you wish to keep available in the future as described here: [export-wallet](https://docs.novawallet.io/nova-wallet-wiki/wallet-management/export-wallet "mention"). Your mnemonic passphrase, raw seed, and JSON file are all compatible with other Polkadot wallets.
3. `Enable` **cloud backup** if you have it disabled at the moment: [enable-cloud-backup](https://docs.novawallet.io/nova-wallet-wiki/settings/backup/enable-cloud-backup "mention").
4. `Delete` your cloud **backup file** by following this guide: [#delete-your-cloud-backup](https://docs.novawallet.io/nova-wallet-wiki/settings/backup/manage-your-cloud-backup#delete-your-cloud-backup "mention").
5. You can now `uninstall` the Nova Wallet application to erase the wallet data that was stored locally.
