Archived Signals
When you stop monitoring a list or replace contacts, your signals move to the Archive tab. They're preserved as historical intelligence you can reference for future outreach.
What Goes to Archive
Signals move to the Archive tab when:
- You stop monitoring a list (Stop & Remove)
- You replace contacts in an active monitoring list with new ones
- You delete a list that had monitored contacts
The signals themselves are never deleted immediately. They stay in Archive so you can review past buying intent, draft outreach from historical data, or use them as context when re-engaging a prospect.
What Stays vs. What Gets Cleaned Up
Signado automatically cleans up orphaned data after 30 days to keep your workspace tidy.
| Scenario | What Happens |
|---|---|
| You stop monitoring but keep the list | Signals move to Archive. Contacts stay in their list. Nothing is deleted. |
| You delete the list entirely | Contacts are deleted. Signals move to Archive with no linked contacts. After 30 days, these orphaned signals are automatically removed. |
| You re-upload the same contacts | Fresh monitoring starts from scratch with a full signal scan, as if they were new contacts. |
Signals linked to existing contacts are never automatically deleted, even in Archive. Only signals where both the contact and the list have been removed are cleaned up after 30 days.
Re-Monitoring After Deletion
If you delete a list and later re-upload the same contacts, Signado runs a full signal scan as if they were new. Previous signal history from Archive will have been cleaned up after 30 days, so the new scan provides fresh intelligence.
