Hi @marybaum In your recent patch you have deleted:
''Providing an export of all data that a business or website has collected
about an individual is a requirement of many Privacy Laws around the
world, and is sometimes referred to as the "Right To Data Portability".'''
and replaced this by:
''Privacy Laws around the world require businesses and online services to
delete, anonymize, or forget all the data they collect about an
individual. The rights those laws enshrine are sometimes called the "Right
of Data Portability".'''
I understand from the bug scrub that this has been done to create an
active construction.
However, from a legal point of view, the currently proposed text is not
correct. If you want to use an active construction on that particular
place, it should be something like this:
''Privacy Laws around the world require businesses and online services to
**provide an export of some of the** data they collect about an
individual. The rights those laws enshrine are sometimes called the "Right
of Data Portability".'''
