Why does ElephantDrive keep old versions of my files?

We believe that a backup solution should not delete files just because you deleted them from your local computer either accidentally or on purpose. In fact, this is a great advantage you have as an  ElephantDrive user - allowing you to use our system as online storage as you free-up local disk space.  This compares to systems that simply "mirror" your current system.
