Note – How is the data of deleted users handled?
A deleted user loses all access to Collavate upon deletion.No approval files are deleted upon deletion of the account from Collavate. However, in Team Plan, ownership of submitted approval files remains with the submitter; this can cause remaining users to lose access to the original documents. It is recommended that the administrator backup all files of the user before deleting the account.
