I think I’m with you now. 🙂 That sounds like the invitation expiry date. After that time the invite link will no longer allow the invitee to sign up using it, but you can always send them a new one. 👍

Once a user is fully signed up and participating, there is generally no expiration on their account.

There are couple of caveats to that for users who haven’t met certain basic thresholds for engagement over a period time, but you can tweak those in the admin settings if you feel that you need to. 🙂👍

`purge unactivated users grace period days` (14 days)  
`clean up inactive users after days` (730 days)  
`clean up unused staged users after days` (365 days)
