# Deletes

> How record deletions are handled in the Data Share

## Soft Delete Model

The Data Share pipeline uses a **soft-delete model** internally. When a record is deleted
in Affinity, it is marked as deleted in the pipeline rather than being physically removed.

**Note: Soft deletes are cleaned after 7 days, deleted records will only be visible in the share for 7 days after deletion.**
