To avoid any misunderstanding (it's surprising how often statements like this are taken out of context) I think it is worth pointing out that (i) that's something of an oversimplification so it would not be a good idea to rely on in general; (ii) the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) came into effect three years ago.berkeman said:
The GDPR was made law in the UK by the Data Protection Act 2018 and although now we have left the EU we can change it, we have not yet done so and so the ‘right to be forgotten’ has not changed for an individual in the UK.fresh_42 said:

Linkless members on leave are those who have taken a temporary break from their membership but are still considered part of the organization. They may not have access to certain benefits or privileges during their leave, but their membership is still active. Lined out members on leave, on the other hand, have completely terminated their membership and are no longer considered part of the organization.
Linkless members on leave may still receive communication and updates from the organization, and may be able to rejoin at a later time without having to go through the membership application process again. Lined out members on leave, however, have severed all ties with the organization and would have to reapply for membership if they wish to rejoin in the future.
There are various reasons why a member may choose to take a leave of absence, such as personal or family reasons, health issues, or work commitments. Each organization may have their own policies and procedures for members on leave.
It depends on the policies of the organization. Linkless members on leave may still be able to participate in certain activities, while lined out members on leave would not have any involvement in organization activities.
Again, this varies depending on the organization's policies. Some may have a specific time limit for being on leave, while others may allow members to extend their leave or have no time limit at all. It is important for members to communicate with the organization and follow their guidelines for taking a leave of absence.
