Does deleting Family Link delete everything?

Deleting Family Link doesn't automatically delete the child's Google Account and its data (emails, photos, YouTube), but it does remove supervision, and if done incorrectly for a child under the age of digital consent (around 13), Google may close the account, causing permanent data loss. To remove supervision safely, you should either "graduate" the account (if old enough) or remove it from the device, but ensure you don't accidentally trigger permanent deletion by selecting that option, as it's irreversible and means losing everything.
