Does anyone know that if I export my tree - do I retain a copy on Genes or is it deleted?

It stays there.
If you import a tree then any existing tree vanishes.

nb: the exported tree only contains text, no attached records, pictures or anything from your Keep folder..
You will need a tree program of some sort to read the GEDCOM text file.
If you are importing into another program/site google for potential problems first as GEDCOM implementations are not all that standardised.
