⌛ When you leave a service, or if your information is stolen from that service, there may be steps you need to take.

⌛ Does my data remain online?
When you leave an online service you should take proactive steps to delete (or invalidate) the data you have stored there. Unfortunately if the service has been breached, that hacked copy of your data is out of your control. Similarly, if the service is properly doing backups, those may not be affected by your departure.
