Right to Be Forgotten
Also: Right to Erasure
The GDPR right of individuals to have their personal data deleted in certain circumstances, also called the right to erasure.
Why it matters
People can ask you to delete their data, and in many cases you must comply and be able to prove you did. Your systems and processes need to support honoring these requests across every place the data lives.
What good looks like
Readiness means having a process to receive erasure requests, verify them, delete the data across all systems where it lives, and confirm completion within the required timeframe.
In the European market
This is a core GDPR right available to anyone in the EU, and European buyers and individuals do exercise it, so the capability is not theoretical.
