Google has decided to let Google account holders take control of their data and decide if they want to share this data with trusted friends later or simply delete the account automatically.

Its a very important tool which Google has passed on to users which allows you full control of your Google digital assets and how you want Google to deal with them should you pass away or the account becomes inactive for any other reason. Everyday we post lots of data, pictures, comments, files, videos – which we may like our loved ones to get control of rather than being deleted automatically – or you may have lots of private information which you might want to get automatically deleted as soon as possible rather than be accessed by your kin and their lawyers.
