The policy offers numerous self-service tools and dashboards for users to access, manage, and clear some of their data across various Microsoft products. It explicitly states the right to 'erasure' and provides clear contact channels for data not manageable through self-service. While self-service deletion is noted as 'partial' for some data, the policy does not impose any explicit barriers such as excessive identity verification, fees, or extended processing timelines for full deletion requests made via contact. This makes the overall deletion process good, despite the limitation of self-service tools.
