Limitations and consequences due to non-payment

Hello! What will happen to the files in the storage if there are no funds on the card for payment? Can these files be deleted by dropbox? What are the limitations in this case?

    No, it won't be deleted. If, however, you leave the account idle for more than a year, the account and everything in it would be deleted and unrecoverable.

     


    Could you send a link to a document that indicates the possibility of deleting a large amount of data in the absence of payment?

    There is no such document because Dropbox doesn't delete your files for lack of payment. As mentioned above, your entire account can be deleted if it remains idle, which is outlined in the Terms.
