In this article, we explain how to recover deleted Ring videos to provide the answers Ring owners are looking for.<\/p>\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"why_do_ring_owners_lose_their_videos\"><\/span>Why Do Ring Owners Lose Their Videos?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<p><a href=\"\/howto\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/ring-doorbell.webp\"><img class=\"border-gray border-radius-10 aligncenter wp-image-42606 size-full\" src=\"\/howto\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/ring-doorbell.webp\" alt=\"ring doorbell\" width=\"1524\" height=\"716\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cleverfiles.com\/howto\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/ring-doorbell.webp 1524w, https:\/\/www.cleverfiles.com\/howto\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/ring-doorbell-300x141.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.cleverfiles.com\/howto\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/ring-doorbell-500x235.webp 500w, https:\/\/www.cleverfiles.com\/howto\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/ring-doorbell-768x361.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1524px) 100vw, 1524px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>The good news is that most owners of Ring security cameras and doorbells never experience any video loss issues. If they do, it\u2019s because they somehow manage to delete important videos by mistake or forget to download them in time.<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li><strong>Accidental deletion<\/strong>: All it takes to delete a video from the Ring app or the web interface are a few taps or clicks. That\u2019s all well and good, but what if you have the wrong video selected when you press the Delete button? Well, then you have a major problem on your hands.<\/li>\r\n\t<li><strong>Automatic removal<\/strong>: Ring videos are stored in the cloud (on secure AWS servers), and they are available for up to 60 days. To keep them longer, you need to manually download them to your mobile device or personal computer. If you don\u2019t do that, they will be automatically deleted.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>While losing a Ring video is always unpleasant, especially if you haven\u2019t experienced any similar data loss issue before, solving this problem is sometimes much easier than it seems, and we explain when it\u2019s possible to recover deleted Ring videos in the following sections of this article.<\/p>\r\n<div class=\"alert alert-info\" role=\"alert\">\r\n<p><strong>Note<\/strong>: Ring lets its users choose Video Storage Time from 1 day all the way up to 60 days. If you\u2019re not sure which Video Storage Time option you have currently selected, then you should check as soon as possible to avoid an unfortunate surprise.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"when_its_possible_to_recover_a_lost_ring_video\"><\/span>When It\u2019s Possible to Recover a Lost Ring Video?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<p>Ring is well-aware that people care about their privacy. To protect it, the company automatically deletes video recordings stored on its servers after a certain amount of time. Ring also uses a combination of AES encryption (Advanced Encryption Standard) and TLS (Transport Layer Security) to encrypt videos both at rest and in transit.<\/p>\r\n<p>As a result, videos that are deleted from Ring\u2019s servers are gone for good, and there\u2019s no way to recover them. The only deleted Ring videos that can be recovered are those that had been downloaded to a mobile device or computer before their deletion.<\/p>\r\n<p>In other words, you can recover accidentally deleted local copies of your Ring videos, but you can\u2019t recover Ring videos that have never left Ring\u2019s servers.<\/p>\r\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"can_the_police_recover_deleted_ring_videos\"><\/span>Can the Police Recover Deleted Ring Videos?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\r\n<p><img class=\"border-gray border-radius-10 aligncenter wp-image-42608 size-full\" src=\"\/howto\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/police-ring-doorbell.jpg\" alt=\"police ring doorbell\" width=\"1192\" height=\"647\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cleverfiles.com\/howto\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/police-ring-doorbell.jpg 1192w, https:\/\/www.cleverfiles.com\/howto\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/police-ring-doorbell-300x163.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.cleverfiles.com\/howto\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/police-ring-doorbell-500x271.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.cleverfiles.com\/howto\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/police-ring-doorbell-768x417.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1192px) 100vw, 1192px\" \/><\/p>\r\n<p>According to Ring\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/shop.ring.com\/pages\/privacy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">privacy notice<\/a>, the company may share video recordings in response to legal proceedings or requests from government agencies to comply with the law or, in the case of government requests, there is an emergency involving danger of death or serious injury.<\/p>\r\n<p>However, even the police can\u2019t recover videos that have been removed from Ring\u2019s servers or securely deleted from a mobile device or computer.<\/p>\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"recover_a_downloaded_ring_video_with_data_recovery_software\"><\/span>Recover a Downloaded Ring Video With Data Recovery Software<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<p>Have you accidentally deleted a downloaded Ring video and want to get it back?
