Deleting a Customer Profile

The GDPR and CCPA requirements grant the user in scope to request the removal of their personal data without undue delay. This guide provides instructions on how to delete a profile from Lytics via the Lytics UI. In addition, you can use the Lytics API to delete a customer profile. A successful deletion request of a profile using the Lytics API will not update the status of a customer in the Lytics UI until the profile has been removed from Lytics. The removal is handled in background batch processes that will be fulfilled within 14 days.
