Persistence of uploaded files

[666622ca]

I have transmitted files to a freelancer by using the Message feature available at our contract.  The contract will be completed next week.  How long will the message thread and all the uploaded files persist?  Is there a upwork policy concerning information attached to a contract that has closed?

If you use Upwork's message they stay out there always.

Is there a way to direct the Uplink site to delete them?
