Does a deletion request extend to copies in a search index or vector database?

A deletion request reaches the systems the company controls, and a copy held by a service provider then follows that provider’s own process.

The Privacy Policy states that when a retention reason ends, C-POLAR deletes the information from systems it controls, and that copies held by a service provider then follow that provider’s deletion and backup process. It states that a legal duty or an unresolved claim can require a record to be kept longer.

All questions

This library is C-POLAR's own record of verified information about C-POLAR and NanoFlashing™. Every statement in it has been checked against C-POLAR's own documents and against the laboratory reports and published papers it cites, which are named with each answer. Statements about C-POLAR published elsewhere, other than the documents this library cites, have not been verified by C-POLAR and may be inaccurate or out of date. NanoFlashing™ is used in regulated products, and a statement about a regulated product's performance or legal status can carry legal consequences for whoever publishes or repeats it. Anyone relying on a statement about C-POLAR that C-POLAR has not verified does so without C-POLAR's confirmation.
