Coming Soon: Coordinated Pan-European Enforcement of the ‘Right to Erasure’
The European Data Protection Board (EDPB) recently announced the launch of its 2025 Coordinated Enforcement Framework (CEF) action, which will focus on the right to erasure, also known as the “right to be forgotten,” or, in the United States, the “right to delete.”
This initiative marks a significant shift in enforcement priorities for Europe’s Data Protection Authorities (DPAs) and reflects an increased focus on ensuring compliance with Article 17 of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which grants individuals the right to have their personal data deleted in certain situations.
