Once your account has been deleted
As deletions are permanent, your channel (including your shows, tracks, etc.) will no longer be available for you or other listeners to access. Additionally, your username will be freed up for use by other Mixcloud accounts.
Once your channel has been deleted, it may show up on search engines or other sites until they clear their own servers. This can take up to 8 weeks and is out of our control, and we recommend contacting the website or search engine directly to remove the information sooner. You can contact Google to action this here.
