A Gentle reminder on GDPR’s Right to be forgotten

The right to be forgotten dovetails with people’s right to access their personal information in Article 15. The right to control one’s data is meaningless if people cannot take action when they no longer consent to processing, when there are significant errors within the data, or if they believe information is being stored unnecessarily. In these cases, an individual can request that the data be erased.

You have one month to respond to a request. I understand you’re busy. Make it easy by allowing users to erase their personal data.

I am not a lawyer and this is not a legal advice. In all circumstances I strongly recommend you consult directly with legal counsel familiar with the GDPR regulations.

Useful Plugin

Hi, do you have new update. The plugin is not working right. Ounce the user deletes their profile. It deletes their profile although it stays at the same page and says Oops! That page can’t be found. I have deactived all my plugins and that was not the cause of it. It was working fine 3 weeks ago.

The plugin is 5-star for what it does: it simply allows users to delete themselves from your site, and it's fantastic that with the click of a button a woo endpoint is added right there in the my-account tab. The woocommerce endpoint also has custom hooks that you can use with your theme to attach content around the delete me form to warn the user or provide more information to the user before they pull the trigger. Brilliant job, and thank you for all your hard work.

I installed this plugin and rebuilt the site. A failed site could never be repaired.

1) I see a 404 page not found while clicking the delete account tab? You might need to refresh the permalinks. Navigate to Settings->Permalinks and Save. 2) I accidentally deleted my own account. I am the owner of the site. There is no way to recover the deleted user because the data is permanently deleted from the database. If you’re locked out of your own site, you’ll need to create a new user and get access to the site. 3) How to add the delete account option in the PHP template file? Using the code snippet below: <?php do_shortcode( ['wp_frontend_delete_account'] );
