# Trash can

The Trash Can in Cirrus allows you to restore or permanently delete the following:

- Users
- Collections
- Assessments

When you delete users, collections, or assessments in Cirrus, they are not immediately removed. Instead, they are placed in the Trash Can for a 30-day quarantine period.

During and after this quarantine period, you can restore items by clicking **Restore**. After 30 days, permanent deletion becomes available.

              Role permission

              

Access to **Admin > Trash Can** is typically restricted to the System Administrator role. Users with this access can restore items, which will then reappear under **Admin > Users**.
