You can use the recycle bin to restore contacts, companies, deals, and tickets up to 90 days after they were deleted. When you restore a contact, some of the data associated with them will still be lost. For example, restored contacts will not be in any static lists they were in prior to the deletion.
Learn more about the implications of deleting contacts to understand why deleting contacts is not recommended and the data that will be lost when contacts are permanently deleted.
Please note: users need Account access and add and edit users permissions to use the recycle bin. GDPR-related deletions will not be held in the recycle bin, and will be permanently deleted with immediate effect in compliance with GDPR.
