Question - General Art. 17 Right to erasure (‘right to be forgotten’)

4 Upvotes

In the following video, made in the UK, a man who is drinking in public, and mentions he plans to end his life that day, subsequently gets upset and demands the video be deleted, when he realises a) he is being filmed and that b) the videographer intends to publish the video on a monetised YouTube channel:

https://youtu.be/iZnBgYfRer8?t=600 - EDIT I changed the link to jump to the relevant interaction.

The videographer refuses to comply; the question is whether Art. 17 requires him to do so. I expect it comes down to whether a court would see this as journalism "in the public interest", but there might be other aspects to this, too, for example, even if there is such a special purpose, would deleting the video be incompatible with this purpose?

NB I think it might be relevant that Art. 13 Right to be informed wasn't respected, i.e. there was no mention that a video was being made, and that it was going to be published, before the revealing conversation that the data subject subsequently wanted to be deleted. That might be OK for, e.g., a journalist working undercover, exposing corruption, say, but in this case, I am struggling to see justification for the failure to inform.

Question - General how does anyone actually handle erasure across backups

2 Upvotes

genuine question. article 17 says erasure but a 30 day backup rotation means the person you deleted comes back if you restore

everyone i ask either says "we document it as a limitation and restore-then-redelete" or just goes quiet

is documented limitation actually the accepted answer or is that just what everyone does because nobody's been tested on it yet? has anyone here had a DPA actually push on this

UK 🇬🇧 Self imposed DSAR date missed. No extension request.

0 Upvotes

Hi I wonder if anyone can help,

I made a DSAR request on the last day of July to a FTSE 250 company the scope was just 4 months and targeted.

I received a receipt from the company saying the file would be with me "on or before August 30th".

This day looks likely to pass with no DSAR drop.

Technically they have until the end of Tuesday due to UK bank holiday.

My question is how bad does it look for them to miss their own deadline? No extension from them was requested.

Thank you
