Data protection laws and regulations, such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR ) might require specific handling of user data, even after a user profile is removed. Additionally, employees or other clients with user accounts on API Portal may request that any user identifying information such as user name, email addresses, or client IP addresses be removed from API Portal. When a user is deleted in API Portal UMC, the audit events still retain the information about the user which should be deleted or anonymized. To comply with data protection requirements and user requests, in addition to deleting the user account, you have to complete activities to remove or anonymize data.
