Technical Requirements

What is the right to be forgotten?

Under Article 17 of the GDPR, individuals have the right to have their personal data erased from data controllers and processors who hold them. The right to be forgotten only applies in certain circumstances such as the personal data is no longer necessary for the purpose the organisation originally collected data for, the organisation has processed the data unlawfully and if the individual withdraws their consent or objects to legitimate interests as basis for processing their personal data, direct marketing purposes.

How long do you have to erase data under GDPR?

Under Article 12.3 of the GDPR, organisations must comply with a legitimate request for erasure without undue delay and at the latest within one month of receipt of the request. Organisations should calculate the time limit from the day they receive the request (whether it is a working day or not) until the corresponding calendar date in the next month. This timeframe can also be extended up to 60 days depending on the complexity of the request.

Why is erasure important?

For businesses, erasure falls under the scope of compliance with the GDPR but also best practice for data management. Erasure works to encourages businesses to be transparent and consider their customers' rights and needs. For customers who are supplying their personal data to businesses, knowing that a business is complying with erasure requests increases their trust.
