Watchdog Finds Hurdles in GDPR 'Right to Erasure'
The European Data Protection Board (EDPB) has identified major challenges that prevent EU citizens from fully exercising their right to be forgotten. A new study reveals that technical complexities and inconsistent cooperation from companies make it difficult for individuals to have their personal data deleted. The EDPB highlights that these obstacles undermine the effectiveness of the GDPR across the single market. National data protection authorities plan to coordinate more closely to ensure that companies comply with erasure requests more efficiently in the future.
