# Request User Data

 * In the Settings tab there is an option under REQUEST USER DATA to check a box
   to “Activate page”. I notice this creates a page called “Data Access Request”.
   This page is Private. What is the purpose of this page and should it be public?
 * I thought it might be a form for users to request data access, updating, or erasure
   but it just has a statement “By using this form you agree with the storage and
   handling of your data by this website.” and a field for user to enter email address.
   thanks.

 * This is to enable the possibility for your site’s visitors to request the data
   you have of them based on their email address. As of now only data of WordPress
   comments, WordPress Users and WooCommerce orders are shown. All the others need
   to be collected manually by the administrator of the site.
