Google now has managed to acquire a huge amount of an individual’s data through everything one does online. However, seldom do we think what will happen to this accumulated data after we are dead. Google’s Inactive Account Manager takes care of all the data and personal information once you are no more in the face of the earth.
For indicating your absence, you need to set a duration of inactivity of your account. Suppose, you set two months of time through this feature and your account stays unused for this period, Google will get notified after that and will take it as an indication that you are not there to use the account.

Among all the platforms (Chrome, YouTube, G Suite, PlayStore, Photos) which work concertedly with Google, you can select the ones whose data you want to share. By doing this, you will be sharing all the important data which you wish to pass on to your family or friends. Your selected administer gets notified by Google that you gave them the access to your information along with the link to download it.
Once the information is shared, you can select the duration after which you wish to completely destroy your data. If you haven’t done all the aforementioned process through Inactive Account Manager, your closed ones can still acquire the information from Google by requesting it. However, it might require a bit of hassle of submission of documents such as death certificate and other verifications.
