Right to be Forgotten (Data Erasure Request)
Overview
Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), individuals within the European Union have the right to request the deletion of their personal data in certain circumstances. This right is also known as the "Right to be Forgotten". At [Your Company Name], we are committed to ensuring the privacy and protection of your personal data.
When Can You Request Data Erasure?
You can request the erasure of your personal data when:
-
The data is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was originally collected or processed.
-
You withdraw consent and there is no other legal ground for processing.
-
You object to the processing and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing.
-
The personal data has been unlawfully processed.
-
The personal data has to be erased to comply with a legal obligation.
