What is the Right to Erasure
The Right to Erasure is a right that obliges the data controller to delete personal data (without undue delay) if one of the following reasons applies:
The personal data is no longer necessary for the controller — it has fulfilled the purpose for which it was collected.
The individual withdraws their consent to processing (applicable where processing is based on consent and no other legal basis for processing exists).
The individual objects to processing based on the legitimate interests of the data controller, such as maintaining employee records.
The personal data has been processed unlawfully.
Where parental consent for the processing of children's personal data has not been granted.
A legal obligation imposed by Union or Member State law.
