The Right to Delete (also called the right to erasure) allows individuals to request that organisations permanently delete their personal data. It is a core consumer privacy right under laws like GDPR, CCPA, and MODPA.

Key Highlights:

• Empowers users to remove personal, sensitive, or identifiable information from a company’s systems.

• Applies to data collected online, via apps, or through third-party platforms.

• Organisations must verify the request, delete the data promptly, and notify third parties if the data was shared.

• Exceptions may apply, e.g., for legal obligations, fraud prevention, or internal record-keeping.

• Noncompliance can result in fines, lawsuits, and reputational damage.
