Data recovery from a Google account

Data recovery from a Google account may be necessary in case of deletion or loss of information such as emails, contacts, calendar events and documents. Here are some steps to recover data:

1. Check the trash: If you deleted something recently (for example, an email message), it may have moved to the trash of your Gmail account. Open the "Cart" section in the left sidebar of Gmail and check there.

2. Use the search function: If you know a keyword or phrase associated with a file or message you want to find, use the search field at the top of the Google application page (Gmail/Google Drive) to quickly search for the desired items.

3. Contact Google support for help: If the data is still missing after using the previous methods, please send a request through the Google user support form https://support.google.com/accounts/contact/disabled2

4. Use the Data Recovery for Android/iOS tool: This software can scan your phone or tablet and recover deleted data, such as contacts, SMS/MMS messages, photos, and videos. It can be useful for recovering data from a Google account on mobile devices.

5. Turn on automatic backup: To prevent data loss in the future, you can set up automatic backup of your files using Google Drive tools or other third-party applications.

Remember that some types of information (for example, e-mail) are stored only for a certain period of time after its deletion - pay special attention so as not to delay before the start of the possible recovery process!
