Subscribers

Erase a person (GDPR)

Permission required: subscribers:write. Irreversible.

The right to erasure: the record, the name, the custom fields, the proof of consent and the tags are deleted. What was promised and not sent will not be sent; automation journeys stop. The statistics of campaigns already sent do not move — each message stays counted, with nothing left that links it to the person.

Distinct from DELETE /api/v1/subscribers/{email}, which unsubscribes and KEEPS the record so the address does not come back at the next import. The suppression list is not touched: an address on it stays there (suppressed: true), which is what guarantees nothing is sent to it again. Removing an address from that list is done by hand, in the workspace.
