In December Google will begin removing "inactive" accounts

Do you have a Google account that you haven't used recently? By the end of the week, you should sign in to prevent it from vanishing. Google said in May that accounts that have not been used for at least two years may be canceled under the company's revised inactive-account policy. Starting on Friday, accounts that are determined to be inactive will be deleted gradually. Google should send you many notifications if your account is in danger of being deleted, to the email address connected to the account as well as its recovery address (should one expire). However, here's what you need to know if you're only now learning about this new policy and want to make sure that your material on Google Drive, Docs, Gmail, and other platforms is preserved.
