The General Data Protection Regulation is enforceable May 25, 2018. For more information on this, please see here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Data_Protection_Regulation
In short, it's regulations that apply to citizens of the EU on data protection and privacy.
The purpose of this post is to provide notice that we plan to apply policy and codes changes to all users of FFXIAH/FFXIVPro to comply with GDPR.
The top line items that I hope are done soon are Right to Access and Right to Erasure. This will give users the right to access all their data and to permanently delete their data. This includes data such as:
- Forum Posts
- Private Messages
- Social Account Names
- Screenshots / Images
- Itemsets / Playersets
- Node (wiki pages)
- Bazaar / Wanted list (linked to a user)
Game related data won't be considered personal but will be subject to change. Such as:
- char data are hidden by default until verified by user
- char data can be downloadable if verified by user
Other facets of the GDPR are being discussed.

Who do we contact regarding Right to Erasure?
You will have a control in your account settings once it's complete.

Will this include any easy tools to download/export our personal information?
Deleting nodes was a real pain in the ***, are we gong to finally be able to delete them now?

How would they contact you if they are banned?
We can arrange it so that they are able to login and access account functions while being barred from forum, comments etc.

So that begs the question, why would you ever care enough to delete anything from here. Banned or not.
Do you want your guide removed out of spite? Cause that's like the only reason I can think of.

Users could of written something on the forums/comments/private messages 10+ years ago that they regret so that could be a reason.

I mean like yeah, sign me up for selective amnesia. But forum posts?
Maybe you showed pics of you having wild sex parties with the Dhalmels and your wife wants a divorce.
Probably want to keep that clean before the lawyers start digging.

[113 days between previous and next post]Account deletion is live.
Under "Account" in the right-hand menu, you will find "Delete" in the top toolbar. This nukes your account from orbit because it's the only way to be sure.
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

You can now officially tell people to delete themselves and they must comply.
I'm suggesting a rule that requires a user to write a lengthy, attention-grabbing post explaining why they are deleting their account and leave it up for 24 hours before actually deleting their account. :)
[+]
I'm suggesting it replaces every post made by that person with the lengthy, attention grabbing excuse. Would you like to see my lengthy, attention-grabbing excuse?
Account deletion has been temporarily disabled. Disregard the above, you saw nothing.

You cannot disregard my lengthy, attention-grabbing excuse.
