### Delayed deletion **(PREMIUM)**
By default, projects in a personal namespace are deleted after a seven day delay.
Admins can restore the project during this period of time.
This delay [may be changed by an admin](../admin_area/settings/visibility_and_access_controls.md#default-deletion-delay).
Admins can view all projects pending deletion. If you're an administrator, go to the top navigation bar, click **Projects > Your projects**, and then select the **Deleted projects** tab.
From this tab an admin can restore any project.
