Avoid this agency LIARS LIARS LIARS! To make your life easier, avoid every agency workers. DELETE PERSONAL DATA If the personal data that companies or other organisations (so-called controllers) have stored on you is no longer necessary for its original purpose, you have a "right to be forgotten" according to the General Data Protection Regulation. This means that you can ask the controller to delete said data.
