# Removing your account from a behavior graph


After you accept an invitation, you can remove your account from a behavior graph at any time. When you remove your account from a behavior graph, Amazon Detective stops ingesting data from your account into the behavior graph. Existing data remains in the behavior graph.

Only invited accounts can remove their account from a behavior graph. Organization accounts cannot remove their account from the organization behavior graph.
