# Removing a Buoy

{% hint style="info" %}
**Want to 'undeploy' instead?** This section covers deleting a buoy from the organization. If you are looking to temporarily undeploy it, see: [Updating Deployment Location](/fundamentals/buoys-and-sensors/buoy-settings/updating-deployment-location.md)
{% endhint %}

Removing a buoy refers to permanently deleting the selected buoy from your organization. This process cannot be undone. For example, you may choose this option when your buoy is decommisioned. If you just want to change its deployment location, there is no need to delete it.

### Think before you act

* Deleting the buoy cannot be undone.
* All data about the buoy will be lost.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Permissions:** You must be an Owner of the organization to remove buoys.
{% endhint %}

Deleting a buoy can be carried out via the Buoy Settings's Admin tab.
