 I would be happy with a selection basis noted above and a more hands off
 automated email event driven data deletion, but as mentioned over on
 github I very much doubt any business will want to (and to stay legal)
 delete order data - hence I suggest order data should only have one
 checkbox.

 That selection should cover all data obtained for that particular order
 (billing/shipping address/names/ip/products/emails/invoices/receipts/etc).
