The Walgreens Photo service provides users with customizable photo books and various printing options. As users join the Photo Center, Walgreens implements storage policies for easy and quick access to their images before they get deleted. Let’s find out how long Walgreens stores your photos using both online and offline storage methods.
Does Walgreens Keep Photos?
If Walgreens keeps your images both online and in their offline stores, you may become concerned about their privacy and security. To ease these anxieties, it is important to understand why Walgreens stores them and for how long they retain them.
Does Walgreens Keep Photos?
Yes, Walgreen keeps your images for a certain period, both in physical and digital formats. When you print pictures at Walgreens, they will keep a digital copy of the picture for a period, in case you want to reprint it. However, after this time period, the digital copy is deleted from their system.
Walgreens also offers a digital image storage service called Walgreens Photo Center where you can upload and store your digital images online. If you use this service, Walgreens will keep your pictures for an indefinite amount of time, as long as you have an active account.
How Long Will Walgreens Hold Your Photos?
Walgreens will store your ordered images at their local store for 195 days. After this period, they will be discarded. But a digital copy of your printed photos will be kept for approximately 30 days in case you wish to reprint them.
Your saved images on your Walgreens online account will last for 18 months. If you fail to make any payments, the photos will be transferred to a slower storage method. However, as long as your account remains active, your online photos will remain safe and will not be deleted unless you manually delete them. To keep your Walgreens account active, you must purchase at least once every 18 months.
