// THREAT DETECTION AND DATA PRIVACY TERM
Right to Deletion
The Right to Deletion is a legal principle in data privacy laws that allows individuals to request that an organization erase their personal data. Also known as the 'right to be forgotten,' it empowers users to control their digital footprint.
TECHNICAL DEFINITION
The Right to Deletion, codified in regulations like GDPR (Article 17) and CCPA/CPRA, is a data subject's legal entitlement to request the erasure of their personal data by a data controller. This privacy right necessitates organizations to implement robust data lifecycle management, data discovery, and verifiable deletion protocols across all systems where personal information is stored or processed.
