You can easily delete a member from your project when and if you need to.  
  
Only admins can delete other members.

2\. Click on the user icon to the right of the user you wish to delete.

<p class="callout warning">Deleting a member from the elestio dashboard only removes their access to elestio, not your deployed services.  
If appropriate, please consider revisiting your service credentials.</p>
