Can I restore files deleted over 30 days ago?

I have files that were deleted over 30 days ago that I need restored. I still have the original links that I created when sharing these files. Is there any chance that they can be recovered?

    Unfortunately if you have a free account after 30 days they are not recoverable. 

    If, however, you didn't own the files and the links are from somebody else the only person who can restore and do this is the person who shared the links I'm afraid - and that's regardless of how long ago the file was removed.

    Hey castleb007! Sorry for jumping in. If you're the owner of these files indeed, can you check your Events page and clarify when these files got deleted exactly?
