WhatsApp: Two Functions for Phones that YOU DIDN'T Know About
WhatsApp suspend accounts only at the request of their owners, and only for a period of 30 days, after which the account will automatically be deleted from its servers along with all its data. Apart from that, you can also request the deletion of the WhatsApp account, this procedure being done directly from the settings menu for the application, so you don't have to send emails to someone, but just press a button that will trigger the account deletion procedure.
WhatsApp will delete your account immediately along with all the data that was associated with it, including Google Drive backups, but not iCloud backups, so some data may remain. WhatsApp offers this option for all users because it must allow people to delete their accounts from the messaging platform as needed, which is mandatory not only in the US, but also in Europe, otherwise they risk serious fines from the authorities.
WhatsApp It helps users to suspend their accounts when needed, delete their accounts upon request, but for certain actions a proof of account ownership may also be needed.
