Exclusive to Pro and Advanced plan subscribers.
Groups, Galleries, and Collections may be given an expiration date after which the gallery's Access Control setting is changed to Private. Once private, the item will only be visible to the photographer. This is useful if you want the gallery, group or collection to only remain visible on your site for a specific amount of time.
Important thing to note about the expiration time for expiring galleries- the expiration time for the gallery is based on the hour that the changes to the expiration date is saved. That time is then rounded down to the closest previous hour.
So for example, if the gallery was set to expire on October 1 and the photographer saved the changes on at 1:15 PM UTC on September 1, then the gallery would expire at 1:00 PM UTC on October 1st.
