You can recover from backup. All serious sites have auto backup system
ketkew  
Correct, but you suggested this: https://prnt.sc/j78vun so we thought that it was implemented
Mark  
ketkew we do not implemented as discussed, I think backup can do the job already.

GeorgiosT if you don't want to allow member can delete immediately, you can modify to hide "Delete my account" option. Change text "Deactivate my account" -> to "Delete my account" and you have to manually delete when getting the deactivation request.
Mark  
ketkew actually, the "Deactivate my account" already does the same what we has discussed, you only need to change wording of the popup message in http://prntscr.com/jlxnua . However, you have to review all requests and delete manually.

I think you guys also update the Privacy page on your own site to make it comply with new rules. I saw that many sites already updated.
ketkew  
Yup I did already. But more important is that before entering the website a message should be displayed with information about the privacy policy. So what I did it tweaking the cookie popup and add the privacy statement with an URL to our policy. See screenshot. I would like to add a more fancy solution (overlay), but that's for later.

https://gdprchecklist.io/ is checklist that can help you be in compliance with the GDPR rules. Hope it helps.
GeorgiosT  
Gentlemen from tomorrow that the regulation will apply if a member, asking for a copy of his or her data, from the site and does not get an answer, can go legal and severe fines are imposed on the owners
GeorgiosT  
Mark Why did I install it? patch if it is to make these changes

And first it was ok

I do not see what the installation has benefited from

with the requirements of the new regulation

Linked to what @GeorgiosT says, even if (e.g.) I should ask to download my personal data from this website, I mean, as I said, it's just to get an example. This should not be underestimated, because as has already been explained, these new regulations represent a paradigm shift in privacy laws worldwide.
