1. A method comprising:
receiving, by one or more processors, via a graphical user interface presented on a display device to a user, input indicative of changing a first default deletion policy to a different deletion policy;
changing, by the one or more processors, the first default deletion policy to the different deletion policy in response to receiving the input via the graphical user interface;
deleting one or more content items according to the different deletion policy; and
in response to determining that a threshold amount of time has elapsed since the first default deletion policy has been changed, automatically deleting an individual set of content items based on the first default deletion policy instead of the different deletion policy.
