From sensitive details such as name, phone number, physical address and bank information to photos you wish hadn’t been posted on the web;

Erasing your personal data from the web could lower the chances of someone finding and using it for nefarious purposes.

If you’re up to help protect your identity, here is a good simple yet effective way to do it :

On every website you need to find the ‘contact us’ button or any way to contact the support;

Thus, you will be writing them this simple, legal and effective short paragraphe based on GDPR ( General Data Protection Regulation ) :

Greetings, please delete my account and any data you store about me. I appreciate your help.

Erase my personal data according to Article 15 GDPR. I meet the requirements of data removal requests set forth in Article 17(1) GDPR.

If I consented to the processing of my personal data (e.g. according to Article 6(1) or Article 9(2) GDPR), I hereby withdraw my consent I no longer want my data stored or processed by your organization.

Thanks.

Here’s the information you’ll need to identify my account:

* Your E-mail.
Sincerely,
Your name.
