Data Deletion

What this surface does

The Data Deletion surface receives customer right-to-be-forgotten (GDPR Article 17 / CCPA §1798.105) requests, runs the grace-period clock (migration 149), and executes the cascaded deletion when the timer expires.

When to use it

• A customer formally requests deletion — accept the request here.
• Reviewing pending requests inside their grace period.
• Executing the deletion at end-of-grace.

Key gotchas

• Grace period is 30 days by default. The customer can cancel inside that window.
• Some data must be retained for legal reasons (tax records, signed agreements). Deletion redacts PII but preserves the financial trail.
• Once executed, deletion is irreversible. Confirm twice. Audit log captures the operator.
