If you no longer want to manage your Business Profile‚ you can remove its content and managers. However‚ note that removing it from your account does not immediately guarantee it will vanish from Search and Maps entirely.

Steps to Remove Your Profile
To successfully remove a profile‚ follow these instructions:
- Sign in to your Google account associated with the listing.
- Go to your Business Profile settings.
- Select Remove Business Profile and choose Remove profile content and managers.
- Click Continue‚ then Remove‚ and finally Done.
If your physical location is permanently shut down‚ it is often better to mark your business as permanently closed rather than just deleting management access. This helps notify customers directly.
Important Considerations
- Only primary owners hold the authority to remove profile content.
- New owners or managers must wait a period of seven days before executing these actions.
- Marking a location as permanently closed means it will gradually fade from search results over time.
Always review your account permissions carefully before making changes to ensure you maintain control over your digital footprint across various platforms.
