I am considering downgrading my account from a Paid Plan to the Free Plan. Before I proceed, I would like to clarify the following points:

Will my past conversation logs and history remain accessible after the downgrade?

Is there a risk of any recorded data being deleted or restricted once the plan changes to “Free”? I want to ensure that I can still view and keep my records even after the transition.

Thank you,

Hello,

No, downgrading to the Free plan will not delete or remove your existing chat history. Your past conversation logs and records will remain in your account; only your usage limits and available features will change according to the Free plan.
