Do you use your Google Drive Trash as a storage folder? (Please don't do that - with any trash.) Drive Trash is emptied every 30 days, just like your other Google service trash folders. See https://support.google.com/drive/answer/2375102. |
To create a new Google Doc, Sheet, Slide, Form, Drawing, or Folder:
If the owner of a file moves it to their Trash and then empties their Trash, the file will no longer be accessible by anyone.
You can take a look at the biggest files in your personal Drive by visiting https://drive.google.com/drive/quota, or clicking on the Storage link on your drive.drew.edu page.
Please remember that Drew has a document retention policy which influences what you can store where (and for how long). Please review this policy and keep it in mind when using your Google Drive: Records Retention Policy
Also keep in mind the security of any information you are working with. Consult the Responsible Use of University Data Policy for more information.
