As a software engineer, in any of our corporate applications when a user hits delete we toggle an archived flag, but the data is still there.

What many people don't realize is that this is how some low level data stores work as well. Even regular ol' file systems do this (basically).

Yeah I was shocked when I first started and was questing this behaviour with the owner and lead engineer.

They assured me it complies with GDPR as after a period of time we will anonymise the data.
