Costeja
Shorthand for the case of Google Spain v AEPD and Mario Costeja González, where Costeja successfully sued Google Spain, Google Inc. and La Vanguardia newspaper. When the Court of Justice of the EU ruled that Google Spain must remove the links to the article, the "right to be forgotten" was effectively established in the European Union. The General Data Protection Regulation subsequently more formally granted data subjects the right to deletion in certain circumstances.
