Can data processor delete personal data?

If Data subject asks me (Data Processor) for deleting his personal data that are stored on controller side may I do it for this Data subject or I need to send the request to the Data controller or I need to advise Data subject to contact his Data controller?

Answer:

I assume from your question that you are acting as a data processor in regards to the personal data of the data subject asking for the data to be deleted. In this case, as required by EU GDPR art. 28(3)(e) – Processors (https://advisera.com/eugdpracademy/gdpr/processor/) such requests should be forwarded to the respective data controller. You can inform the data subject that you as a processor have forwarded the request to the controller.
