Take note that on devices with a work profile (BYOD), only the work profile, including all business apps and data, will be deleted from the device. The deleted data cannot be restored. All private data, apps and settings remain untouched (left illus.). Alternatively, you can also delete the profile in the device settings under Accounts→ Work (right illus.).
