When you sign out, the account plus any child profiles attached to it, will be removed. If you sign back in, these will re-appear. 

Child profiles can't be removed separately as they are connected to the adult account. To remove child profiles from your account, have a look here: How do I delete a child profile?

Can I sign out remotely?

Yes you can! You'll need to sign into your account on the BBC website and head to your account settings. In the 'Security and privacy' tab, you'll see the option to sign out remotely.

You can choose to sign out of all devices, or only TVs and games consoles. When you sign out of a TV, it may take a while to log out and the app may look like you're still signed in, but selecting a user will refresh the page and it will confirm that you're signed out.
