Account deletion or anonymization
Request to administrators
When a request for anonymization or account deletion is made, users in the sysop group will receive an email notification.
They can then access the Privacy page located in Global actions > Administration or by navigating to Special:Privacy_Administration.
This pages lists the submitted requests. Administrators can review and approve or deny them.
- Grant request (click on
Approve) - Reject request (click on
Deny)
In addition, administrators can see the status of thePrivacy policy consent for every user on the wiki on this page.
Direct action by users
The wiki can be configured sothat users can perform these actions immediately without approval from an administrator first (not possible in BlueSpice cloud). Requesting actions applies to:
- anonymization
- account deletion
Immediate action can be configured as $bsgPrivacyEnableRequests = false; be activated in LocalSettings.php.
Configuration settings
The following settings can be made in the configuration management:
- Enable mandatory cookies: Users have to explicitely accept the mandatory cookies to get access to the wiki. If this setting is not activated, users accept the mandatory cookies implicitly.
- Enable mandatory "Privacy policy" and "Terms of service": Users have to consent to the "Privacy policy" and "Terms of service" to get and to keep access.
- Accept "Privacy policy" and "Terms of service" on login: Accepting the "Privacy policy" and "Terms of service" is integrated into the login process. It is required on first login and everytime a user deactivates the consent in the user preferences.
