30 day recovery period

When a user is deleted from Populum, the user’s account will continue to exist for 30 days in Populum, to allow for reactivation in case of an accidental deletion. However, the user cannot access Populum during this time, will not participate in any surveys and will not be part of the organization tree, but must be reactivated before being able to log in again. After the 30 day period, all the user’s personal data is erased, and cannot be restored.
