This article explains the differences between Personal Folders and Shared Folders and how to manage them.

Instructions

Personal Folders

If you are an employee user, the Personal Folders section is the root level of your Workspace account. By default, you have the ability to upload and download files from this folder. You are able to create subfolders and add other users to subfolders with the permissions you set.

Shared Folders

The Shared Folders section of your account contains all folders that you have access to.

Retention Policy

Your Personal Folders may be subject to a retention policy set by the Admin of your account. To view the retention policy set by your Workspace administrator, click the Advanced Folder Settings link under More Options next to the Personal Folders heading.

Under File Retention Policy you can view how long your files will stay in the folder before deletion.
