Data Retention After Zendesk Account Expiry

Understand what happens to your data after your Zendesk account expires and how to export it before deletion.

What happens to my data after my Zendesk account expires?

After your Zendesk account expires, your data is not immediately deleted. Instead, it remains accessible for 90 days following the cancellation date. During this period, you have the opportunity to export your data if needed.

If you wish to export your data, you must contact Zendesk Customer Support to request a temporary reactivation of your account. This will allow you to access and export your data before it is permanently deleted. Remember, data exports are only available on certain plans and must be enabled on your account.
