# How do I disconnect my linked financial account?

You control your data.
Individuals and businesses may link their financial accounts with Stripe to receive payouts or access enhanced product experiences. Before you request to disconnect a linked financial account, we recommend reaching out to your merchant who can explain how disconnection may affect your product experience with them.
If you do not have access to the standard [Stripe dashboard](https://dashboard.stripe.com) nor have a Stripe Express account, please complete the form below to request disconnection of your linked financial account. Disconnection will prevent your merchant from accessing data from your selected account. If you disconnect from all businesses, you will also prevent Stripe from collecting new information from your selected account. You can also request that Stripe delete the data copied from your financial accounts and any stored financial login credentials.
If you have access to the standard [Stripe dashboard](https://dashboard.stripe.com) nor have a Stripe Express account, please review this article for how to disconnect directly from the dashboard or your account.
