What specifically are you saying we removed, and where are you saying we removed it from? I'm not familiar with what you're talking about. To my knowledge you're free to contact sysadmin@kde.org and request full removal. Please clarify, thanks. Account removal requests are actioned in line with our privacy policy at https://kde.org/privacypolicy/ (see heading GDPR Requests at the bottom). There is nothing to correct here because we are compliant - the legislation does not require you offer a self-service capability, merely that you remove data when requested. Questions have been sent to info@kde.org without response and there was no indication that email is not in use, no automated response or anything. Subsequent questions and request will be directed to sysadmin@kde.org This page: https://phabricator.kde.org/maniphest/task/edit/form/2/ that is linked to in https://kde.org/privacypolicy/ requires a login. But we now have more information to go on and will look into how to proceed. Out of curiosity, where did you see information indicating that info@kde.org would be a good email address to send questions to? (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #4) > Out of curiosity, where did you see information indicating that info@kde.org > would be a good email address to send questions to? Generic email address. We thought it was used like on a lot of other organizations. Or we thought it would return a "this email is not in use" from KDE in response if it was not. https://www.coldlytics.com/glossary/generic-email-address https://blog.warmy.io/blog/generic-vs-role-based-email-addresses-exploring-the-benefits-and-drawbacks/ https://blog.mystrika.com/generic-role-based-email-addresses/ https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/comparing-generic-role-based-email-addresses-advantages-challenges-p4z5f Ok. So, just to make sure I understand the situation, you sent an email to an address that was not documented anywhere but that you assumed existed, and when you didn't get a response to the email, you assumed that the people who you had expected to respond were breaking the law. Do I have that right? (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #6) > Ok.

Do I have that right? No, you are completely missing what happened, and for both our, his, yours and KDE's sake, we choose to not say more. You are free to personally contact this email if you want further information. As far as we are concerned, we got the answers we needed from here. We are not after to hurt anybody, only closure. |
