A defined submission mechanism exists for erasure requests, but the clause establishes only the right to request erasure, not an obligation on Hugging Face to fulfill every such request.
Interpretive note: The clause establishes the right to request erasure and the mechanism for doing so, but does not state whether or under what conditions Hugging Face is obligated to fulfill such requests. The canonical claim is therefore limited to what the language explicitly establishes: the right to make the request.
