By the way, the policy of the service to delete unused accounts has been in place for several years – this is evidenced by the information at: whatsapp official website.

According to Messenger rules, all WhatsApp accounts that the user has not contacted for 120 days are automatically deleted. This is done to limit data storage and protect privacy.

“You must be connected to the internet in order for the account to be active. If a user opens WhatsApp on their device, but the device is not connected to the internet, the account will be disabled,” explains the management.

It is noted that the local content that the user saves on his smartphone will remain on it until the messaging application is deleted. If you sign up for WhatsApp again on the same device, your locally saved content will be available again.
