Right to erasure
Your right to ask an organisation to delete personal data it holds about you, in certain circumstances.
The right to erasure — sometimes called the 'right to be forgotten' — lets you ask an organisation to delete personal data it holds about you. It applies in certain circumstances, for example when the data is no longer needed for the purpose it was collected, or when you withdraw the consent it relied on. It is not absolute: an organisation can sometimes keep data where the law requires it.
