Delete And Disclose: EDPB CEF 2025 & 2026

The European Data Protection Board (“EDPB”) has launched its Coordinated Enforcement Framework (“CEF”) action for 2026¹, which will focus on transparency and information obligations under Articles 12-14 GDPR. This marks a continuation of the emphasis placed by the EDPB on data subject rights, following the 2025 CEF action on the right of erasure (Article 17 GDPR), and the 2024 CEF action on the right of access (Article 15 GDPR).²

CEF 2025: The Right to Erasure

The EDPB’s 2025 CEF action assessed how controllers implement the right to erasure in practice, across different sectors and organisations of various sizes. In total, 32 supervisory authorities (SAs) participated in the CEF action and 764 controllers responded to a questionnaire. The findings of the SAs are set out in a report adopted by the EDPB on 10 February 2026 (the “Erasure Report”).
