When you delete work such as a project, survey, dataset, custom question it is removed from your workspace and moved to Tasks. Here it is queued for processing.
Processing will permanently remove the item from the platform. It is possible however to cancel the deletion and return the item to your account as long as you do so prior to it being processed.
