Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which of the following rights allows covered individuals to request complete removal of their personal data from an organization's systems?
The 'right to be forgotten' (officially called the 'right to erasure' in Article 17 of GDPR) gives individuals the power to request the deletion of their personal data under certain circumstances. This right enables EU citizens and residents to request that organizations erase their personal data when there is no compelling reason for its continued processing. The right is not absolute and has certain exceptions such as when the data is needed for legal compliance, public health purposes, or establishing legal claims. The other options represent different data protection concepts but do not specifically address the complete removal of personal data from systems.
