Customers who have visited your organization services, websites, or products may want to search for PII related to them stored in the organizational data sources/instances. They may request to delete the information. For this purpose, users can create data subject requests and assign the task to the administrators. This request is processed by the data source owners. After reviewing the request and ensuring that the PII has been deleted from the data sources, the request can be closed.
