To meet privacy requirements, Softrip’s back-office CRM has a “Forget Contact” process that will anonymize PII for a given contact.
This document describes the “Forget Contact” process and its associated data updates.

Prerequisites

Contacts that have at least one reservation departing after today’s date cannot be forgotten.

Process
