Comment (by subrataemfluence):

 I can't believe that GDPR or any other privacy law would demand that no
 further data can be saved from a person that used the "right to be
 forgotten".

 The question is if I chose "right to be forgotten" and erase all my
 "existing" data from a site at a given point of time, does this mean this
 is a Permanent Rule has set by the site for that email address?

 There is every chance that I come back, use the site and allow it to
 "store" my personal data at a later point. I only removed personal data
 for the time being! How GDPR law deals with such a situation?

 And if this is not Permanent, how long a site remembers my "right to be
 forgotten" settings?
