Google has announced that it will be starting to delete inactive Gmail accounts on July 10, 2024. This means that if you haven't logged into your Gmail account in over two years, your account will be deleted along with all of the data associated with it, including emails, photos, and contacts.
Google is making this change to protect inactive accounts from being hacked and to free up storage space. The company says that accounts that have not been used in two years are more likely to be compromised, and that deleting these accounts will help to keep users' data safe.
If you want to avoid having your Gmail account deleted, make sure to log in at least once every two years. You can also sign up for Google's Data Usage Overview, which will send you an email notification if your account is at risk of being deleted.
What to Do If You Think Your Account Might Be Deleted
If you think your Gmail account might be deleted, you can try to log in to your account. If you can't log in, you can try resetting your password. If you still can't log in, you can contact Google for help.
How to Keep Your Gmail Account Active
There are a few things you can do to keep your Gmail account active:
- Log in to your account at least once every two years.
- Sign up for Google's Data Usage Overview.
- Use Gmail regularly to send and receive emails.
