If you don't want your Gmail account to stay active indefinitely after you die, here's how to set it up to go away after a period of time.
What happens to your data if you can’t use your Google Account anymore. Such as, for example, after you die.
You can specify a timeframe after which Google will then be allowed to consider your Google Account inactive.And, finally, you can tell Google if your inactive account should be deleted.Among other important details to know, along these same lines Google also stresses that your designated contact “will only receive notification once your account has been inactive for the specified amount of time.” This also means those contacts won’t get any notification during the setup process.
Moreover, if you chose to only notify your contacts of your inactive account, they’ll get an email with a subject line and content that you wrote during setup. “We’ll add a footer to that email,” Google continues, explaining that you’ve told Google to send out an email on your behalf after you’ve stopped using your account. That footer might look like this:
“John Doe instructed Google to send you this mail automatically after John stopped using his account.If you also chose to share data with your trusted contact, the email they get from Google will contain details about the data you have chosen to share with them. As well as a link the person can click on to download the data from Gmail and other services.
