How erasure treats content a person authored

Data-subject erasure deletes personal data across every store; documents and templates the person authored for the organization are anonymized, not destroyed.

Prerequisites​

  • Admin access to run a data-subject deletion

What is deleted​

  1. An erasure run removes the subject's personal data from every content-bearing service: conversations, messages, files, usage rows, feedback the person wrote, and derived copies of that feedback (mined pattern samples and locally curated test copies).
  2. A deletion certificate is issued only when every service reports complete — a partial run never mints a certificate.

What is anonymized instead​

  1. Prompt templates the person AUTHORED for the organization are anonymized: authorship and identifying fields are severed, the organizational content remains. Billing/cost-ledger rows and governance evidence keep their row with the subject identifiers severed.
  2. This is a deliberate, documented posture: erasure targets personal data, not the organization's work product. Destroying shared documents would exceed what data-protection law requires and damage the tenant.

Validate​

  • Erasure scope understood: personal data deleted, org work-product anonymized
  • Deletion certificate reviewed after a run

Next steps​

  • Run a test erasure in a non-production tenant to observe the certificate
