They mostly don't actually get deleted. They do get removed from the trash but the link is still able to be archived. It's only gone if the link is lost.

nowhere, just like computers, nothing is truly deleted until it is replaced. Only its pointer, as in, the “adress” is deleted. THe difference being that for scratch, even the adress is kept, it simply is permantly unshared. Infact, if you (and specifically you) had the link, you could access it!

Deleted projects aren't actually deleted if you mean through the trash.
If you just never saved any part of it or you completely deleted it off your computer (offline editor), it's lost.

If you delete a project from the trash, it will still sit in Scratch's servers. It doesn't do anything, it just sits there. There is no way to access it due to the recent API change, and it is unable to be “undeleted”. ST may be able to access the contents of the project when given a link.

contact us and request for you to regain access to your project again.Just note that the Scratch Team might not always undelete the project. Contact Us is the best way to ask — but they don't always undelete projects on request. If you have accidently; permanently deleted a project you can use
