Google will begin deleting inactive personal accounts starting December 1. The tech company had announced this new policy in May, stating that it will remove content from inactive accounts on Google Workspace, YouTube, and Google Photos. This means that any account unused for 2 years will be subject to deletion, with the company asserting that its products reserve the right to delete data from accounts that have not been used within a 2-year period. However, this policy does not apply to Google accounts set up through work, school, or other organizations. Google explained that inactive accounts are more susceptible to being compromised, which is why they are implementing these changes. In August, the tech giant had indicated that it would be updating the inactivity period for Google accounts to two years across all its products and services. These new measures are being taken to improve security and prevent compromised accounts.
