GDPR Compliance for AI Agent Mailboxes: Retention and Erasure
Nylas provides APIs for GDPR-compliant email agent mailboxes, enabling retention policies and targeted erasure. Retention is set via control-plane policies to auto-delete aged messages, while erasure uses data-plane operations to hard-delete specific messages or grants. The approach separates blanket time limits from individual deletion requests, both required for compliance.

The piece is a practical walkthrough, not legal advice, but it highlights a critical gap in many AI email demos that ignore data deletion obligations.
