Inactive Gmail accounts to be deleted next month: How to keep your Google Account active

 


Search giant Google announced in May this year that it has updated its inactivity policy for Google Accounts. If a Google account has not been used or signed into for at least 2 years, the company will delete it and all its contents in December 2023 this includes Gmail, Docs, Drive, Meet, Calendar and Google Photos.


The company did clarify that this policy only applies to personal Google Accounts and it will to affect accounts for organisations. Google justifies its new policy, saying that accounts that have not been used for an extended period of time are more likely to get compromised.
