Abstract

Techniques for managing erasure of data are presented. In response to receiving a request for erasure of data from a set of data stores, an erasure component can analyze a set of rules and information relating to the user account, including an account status and erasure hold status associated with the user account. The set of rules can be based on legal or contractual obligations applicable to the set of data stores, and can indicate various conditions under which data associated with a user account of a user can be eligible to be erased from the set of data stores or an associated data vault repository. The erasure component can determine eligibility for erasure of all or a portion of the set of data from the set of data stores based on the analysis results. Erasure component can determine erasure eligibility scores to pre-qualify user accounts for erasure eligibility.
