When I delete a trello board, is it completely removed from Trello's servers?

I am in the process of closing my trello boards and permanantly deleting all cards, lists, and boards, before closing my account.

Does deleting a card, list, and board mean that trello/Atlassian's servers will no longer store my information? 

I have read through a couple of articles:

- https://support.atlassian.com/organization-administration/docs/delete-your-organization/

- https://support.atlassian.com/trello/docs/deleting-your-trello-account/

- https://support.atlassian.com/atlassian-account/docs/delete-your-atlassian-account/

and all they mention is:

- my personal information (such as email) would be deleted

- cards/boards/lists created by me will no longer be accessible by ME

But I am curious if the data is still physically present in the cloud and accesisble by Trello/Atlassian.

If you permanently delete a Trello board (not just close it), it is removed and can't be restored through the normal interface. If you're not completely sure you won't need it again, closing the board first is usually the safer option because it can be reopened later. Are you planning to delete the board permanently, or do you just want to remove it from your Workspace without losing the data?

@liangmicha once you delete the board it is gone.  https://support.atlassian.com/trello/docs/deleting-a-board/  The caveat to this is that Trello data is backed up and is retained for 90 days.  So, it is not truly gone until 90-days after you delete it and the backup is destroyed.
