Closing Your Account And Deleting Images?

I just did a quick forum search for this and didn't see an answer. And, I don't want to click the "Close Account" button to see what the warning message says.

1. When you close your account, are ALL images throughout the FAA/Pixels/Artist Websites, and affiliates, etc. completely deleted? ie. no high or low resolutions images remaining whatsoever, on any and all backups?

And what about the 900 pixel images that show up on "view image" via Google image search? Are those all completely eliminated from all the above stated networks as well?

I know Sean says this is final when you Close Account, but I'm assuming there are backups as well. And, I'm also aware that it would take some time for the fresh backups erase all instances of your images and/previews via Google, etc. but would that in fact ALL be completely gone by the time new backups were finished? Or do they linger somewhere?

2. When you delete only specific images from your account, do they get completely eliminated throughout all networks and backups as well?

Thanks in advance

All images are removed from our search within the normal 24 hours
They stay on the server for 10 days and then are deleted for good. They stay there for 10 days in case the artist changes their mind

Same for any you remove manually

Google is their own person. They remove them when they feel like it.. normally up to a month or two but it can be a lifetime for some works unles syou contact them
