I asked them to delete my data, they said "Install our app"
I asked them to delete my data, they said "Install our app"
A few days ago I sent a GDPR request to some company to delete my personal data. They said to install their app and send a ticket from the app. The email was sent from the email address to which the account is registered. Is this even legal?

Use this template in chat gpt...
Can you write an official letter for removal of my private data for (company name) and (my name). Use a strong tone and legalese langage. Make sure you verify the timeframe they must respond (act with 30 days of this letter) and any other specific to make sure they know what my rights are and that I am serious. List the typical types of data they might have on me. And write in a 1800L lexile scale.
Catch 22: give ChatGPT your data, then try to delete your ChatGPT account using ChatGPT
You can ask the text without name and write it after... I mean really? Search on hugging face for free LLM (that's the kind of ai of chat gpt) and try it for free without registration there is that's suuuch a thing
Oh I was just joking :)
How are you going to speak to it without revealing any information though? It now knows you need legal advice.
Don't do this.
Why?
chatgpt is not a lawer
It doesn't matter since none is needed for this. I understand that the goal is to add filler with intimidating legalese, but I doubt that customer "support" is going to react as they expect.
It would be complete bullshit, but clearly the people on the other end would be too stupid to recognize it as such. So there's really no reason not to do it as long as you're aware that it's an empty threat.
I think you could achieve the same without bullshitting by simply saying "Please delete my data within 30 days or I will report you to the relevant authorities", but each to their own.
I'm sorry but you live in another universe from not finding this the perfect letter.
