    Using WordPress tools > erase personal data I can see this erases personal data from Woocommerce orders associated with a particular email address – good! However it doesn’t erase personal data from an account if they created one ??

    I had a look at the ‘delete me’ plugin – it will delete an account but not the personal data connected with orders in woocommerce ??

    From a customers point of view what is the method to delete both their account and order info?

    @barryruss – The Erase Personal Data function is built into WordPress, not WooCommerce. It’s explained in the Codex that accounts are not automatically deleted:

    When erasing user data, this tool does not automatically delete registered users and their profile data. Administrators should perform that step themselves after successfully erasing personal data for a registered user. User deletion is available for each user in the Users menu in the Dashboard.

    You can delete the account manually after performing the erasure.
