USE A THIRD PARTY PSEUDONYMOUS MAILING ADDRESS FOR ANYTHING BITCOIN RELATED.
I have been down the rabbit hole of customer data retention policies and data deletion practices. I can delete all of my customer data from my website, which I will be doing every 3 months moving forward.
BUT I can't seem to delete my customer data from my third party shipping label provider, I have emailed their legal team and I am waiting for a response on details.
Even if a company deletes all of their customer data, that information can still be linked to the company through their shipping label provider who is often legally obligated to retain their label information for 3-7 years (often kept INDEFINITELY).
So the next time a Bitcoin company says "We delete all customer data after x time" remember that doesn't mean your address isn't linked to them potentially forever in a third party's system.
