I downloaded my information and then deleted my account before realizing that the archive I downloaded did not include any of the photos or posts that I had been tagged in, because I made those posts only visible to me on my timeline.

If these are posts by other people that you were tagged in then those posts should still be up, just without the tags of you, on the original posters timeline.

Sure, this just doesn't do me any good because I don't have them archived or any ability to access them :)
