I deactivated my WhatsApp account. Can I retrieve the chats in my iPhone? I deleted my account accidentally, can I activate the account with the same group and individual contacts as I had before?
More important details about deactivated accountsWhen your account is deactivated, it is not completely deleted.While your account is deactivated:Your name is still on your contacts' Favorites / Select Contact lists.Your contacts can send you messages, which will remain in a pending state for up to 30 days.If you reactivate your account before it is deleted, you will receive any pending messages on your new phone and you will still be in all of your group chats.If a deactivated account is not re-activated within 30 days, it will be completely deleted.Note: Since your chat history is stored on your device, we cannot retrieve your previous messages.Source: What do I do if my phone is lost or stolen?
What will happen to my WhatsApp if I deactivated the SIM no. it was initially registered with and inserted a new SIM in the same device? Will I need to register with the new number?
Nothing!!!!!!!!!!!! Literally nothing.You can continue to use whats app on the previously registered No. , with the new SIM, on the same device like nothings changed. The problem arises only if:1. You register a new Whats App account with the new number and on the same device, in which case you loose your previous account with no way to get it back as Whats App requires you to enter a one time password to verify your No. and the one time password is going to be sent via text Msg. to the No. you deactivated.2. Worst case scenario, the No. you deactivated gets put back into the system after a couple of months and someone else registers their Whats App account with your old No. In this case you automatically get logged out of your account and cannot use Whats App on your previous No. ever again.There are of course ways of navigating around both the above mentioned scenarios but ill be writing a thesis if i get into that.

If I deactivate my WhatsApp account and then reactivate it later, will my contacts still be able to see me in their WhatsApp's contact list?
In order to answer your question to your understanding, let me explain you the procedure as it happens.When you download whatsapp and register your number with it, what happens is your number is registered against your account. You instantly start to see contacts, which are using whatsapp. The one’s not registered on whatsapp are shown with a label ‘Invite’.So now let’s just say that you deactivate your account from whatsapp. At this very moment contacts (or people) having your number will see the label “invite”, as you are not a registered user on whatsapp anymore. Next is when you reactivate your account using the same phone number, you are re-registered on whatsapp, and now the contacts will start seeing you. (Provided you have turned all the privacy settings to public/everyone)So if you want no-one to see your Display picture, status, last seen, just select no one in the privacy options. If you want only few people to be excluded, you have option to block them. When you block, the messages sent by them are not delivered to you. Nor can they see your updates like Display picture, status, last seen.NOTE:contacts not present in your contact list can see your updates when your privacy is set to public/everyone.
