would the links created by me be deleted once my dropbox account is deleted or does it remain?

I have created some link and now I want to delete the link by deleting my account, is this possible?

    Hi again, ibrahimmk! Hope you’re well. 

     

    If you delete your Dropbox account, and you’ve created a shared link, then it’ll be disabled too, since the files it links to will no longer exist.

     

    However, please keep in mind that if you delete your Dropbox account, it won’t be possible to restore it, or any other file that was previously stored on it.

     

    If you just want to delete/disable a single shared link that you created, please go here instead, and click on the button with the 3 dots next to it. 

     

    Hope this helps.
