The deposit required to register the ROFL app will be returned to the current
administrator account.

:::danger Secrets will be permanently lost
:::danger Secrets and key generation seed will be permanently lost

All secrets stored on-chain will be permanently lost when the ROFL app is
deregistered! If you backed up your manifest file, those secrets will also be
unretrievable since they were encrypted with a ROFL deployment-specific keypair.
All [secrets] stored on-chain will be permanently lost when the ROFL app is
deregistered! If you backed up your manifest file, those secrets will not be
recoverable since they were encrypted with a ROFL deployment-specific keypair.

Similarly, the ROFL's internal seed for [key generation] will be lost, so you
will not be able to generate the same keys in another ROFL.
