With the rapid advancement of technology, personal data is increasingly recorded in digital environments and can be stored for long periods of time. This situation causes individuals' past negative experiences or changing opinions over time to remain constantly accessible. In particular, search engines make personal data widely accessible by indexing results that appear when searching individuals by their first and last names. Within this context, the "Right to Be Forgotten" stands out as the right of individuals to request the deletion of their personal data or the restriction of access to it in digital environments.
The right to be forgotten refers to the ability of individuals to request the removal of information published about them in the past - even if it is accurate - or to prevent it from being brought back into public attention.
