🟡 Bug · Deleted-team restore is still limited to 30 days, but docs now say it has no limit

"Stays restorable" implies no time limit. On the monorepo#5164 branch, teams/service.ts:229 still sets TEAM_RESTORE_WINDOW_SECONDS = 60*60*24*30, and restoreTeam (service.ts:1310-1312) throws NotFound once deletedAt + 30 days has passed. The team is no longer reaped, but after 30 days POST /v1/teams/{teamId}/restore returns 404. Keep the 30-day limit in the wording, or remove the window in the control-plane change first.

P1 Badge Restore the 30-day team recovery limit

A user reading this can reasonably defer recovery indefinitely, but the generated restoreTeam contract only restores a team within the 30-day window, while deleteTeam likewise says administrators can restore it for 30 days. Omitting that deadline can lead to irreversible loss when someone tries to restore after the supported window.

A version that is declared but never finalized is a draft. Drafts live for 24 hours. Past that they flip to `expired` and their file declaration is dropped, so an abandoned draft cannot be resumed. Publish again instead.
A version that is declared but never finalized is a draft. Drafts live for 24 hours. Past that they flip to `expired` and stop accepting uploads, so an abandoned draft cannot be resumed. Publish again instead. The expired draft stays in the version history.

This only affects versions still in `created`, `uploading`, or `uploaded`. A ready version has no clock on it.

## How many versions are kept

Ready versions stay until you delete them, with one exception. Free Spaces have a retained-version cap, counting everything that is not failed, canceled, or expired. The publish that takes a Free Space past its cap still goes through. The oldest ready versions that nothing serves expire in the background — their bytes are purged, but their history stays. A version the live pointer or a branch alias serves is never expired. Paid plans have no cap. See [Limits](/limits).
All of them. Ready versions stay until you delete them, on every plan.

🟡 Bug · Activity events row still says events are deleted, contradicting the new paragraph

This row says events are deleted, but the paragraph added below says nothing is deleted when a window ends. On the monorepo#5164 branch, apps/control-plane/src/activity/events.ts:602 notes the audit log is never deleted and the plan's auditLogRetentionHours only decides how far back feeds read. Reword to "Reads are limited to the window", like the HTTP access logs row.

Nothing is deleted when a window ends. Spacefast keeps your data until you delete it, and a delete hides the thing from everyone but you. Removing data for good is a manual step our team takes on request.

P1 Badge Do not claim retention windows never delete data

This blanket statement directly contradicts the table above, where activity events are deleted at the end of their plan window, and /anonymous-and-claim also says reminder addresses are deleted on expiry. Users therefore receive mutually exclusive data-retention and privacy guarantees; qualify this statement or reconcile every listed exception.

Reconcile the activity-event retention guidance.

The table says activity events are deleted when the window ends. The paragraph says nothing is deleted. Customers cannot tell whether they need to save events before expiry. Align both statements with the actual policy.

Reconcile the activity-event retention statements in the limits guidance so the
table and paragraph consistently describe the actual policy. Establish whether
events are deleted when the retention window ends or remain available until
manually removed, then update the conflicting statement without changing
unrelated retention guidance.

The two anonymous rows work together. A space that stops serving at its deadline is still recoverable through the claim link for another 7 days. Claim-page loads can push that deadline out by up to 6 hours. See [Publish without an account](/anonymous-and-claim).

P1 Badge Preserve permanent deletion semantics for version removal

For anyone deleting a version to remove its contents, this now promises the opposite of the shipped contract: deleteSpaceVersion in generated/openapi/api.json says it permanently deletes the version and files, and the generated CLI reference says sf versions rm purges those files. Claiming Spacefast retains them can mislead users about whether sensitive data was erased and leaves the authored command guide inconsistent with both public references.
