I recently requested a deletion of my data on a platform using the GDPR, but instead of them deleting my data they replied to the request with instructions on how to delete my account using their profile tools.
Is this the same privacy-wise in terms of deleting my data?
It should be the same. But depending on the organization behind the platform, they might play dumb if you only request the deletion through the profile tools.
Makes sense. Thanks for the answer
