Delete my account / forget my data client feature
...
HostBill gives you the opportunity to allow your customers to delete their account and remove their personal information. You can enable this feature in Admin → Settings → Other → GDPR. When enabled, the client will be able to click Delete my account / forget my data button placed in Client Summary section.
Notice: Client can start the account removal process only if there are no unpaid invoiced linked to their account.
If the client has active services that can't be cancelled (domains, unpaid invoices etc.), the following message will pop-up:
Following services cannot be automatically cancelled:
- the list of services/domains that block account deletion
Please contact us to resolve this and have your data removed

Account removal process
...
Once the client starts the process:
The account is being marked with Pending Removal status.
The client with the account status 'pending removal' will not be able to sign-in anymore.
Every day HostBill automation will search for 'pending removal' accounts in the database and if the account meets the requirements (was closed X days ago - to be determined in settings):
if the client profile can be deleted as the account meets the Data Retention Settings requirements (the last paid invoice is older than X months), the account will be completely deleted (along with all the services, domains etc)
if the client profile can't be completely deleted as the account doesn't meet the requirements, the account will be anonymizated.
