History of uptime is useful information and is lost instantly when account is deleted.
Avoid losing it if account is deleted (or keep backup), at least delete with some delay.
So either auto-backup, or delete after a certain period (e.g. 2 weeks) after account deletion submission.

Did you mistakenly delete your account? Considering how infrequent this is and how protected this action is with the confirmation page listing all deleted ressources, I'm not sure it's worth the effort and additional code complexity. I may have some of that data in a database dump on my end though, which I can spend some time partially restoring if it's that important.
I could implement some kind of automated global account export / backup as this could be useful in other scenarios (e.g. when migrating to another service), but it wouldn't be importable in updown.io. So not sure if that would help your case?
Our issue issue was a conflict in a team which resulted account deletion by a team member.
Talking to Updown.io support helped partially (thanks btw), but lost last month of monitoring.
Ah yes ok, I remember that :) Well I'll keep this open to measure interest but as I said this is quite unlikely on my service (first time I got this) so I'm not sure it's worth the effort implementing for this scenario.
agree, let it hang for a while.
