I recently requested a deletion of my data on a platform using the GDPR, but instead of them deleting my data they replied to the request with instructions on how to delete my account using their profile tools.

Is this the same privacy-wise in terms of deleting my data?

    I’m assuming that if they sent you these instructions, at least on their service specifically your data will actually be deleted along with your account.

    However, I don’t know enough about the GDPR to know whether an account deletion request is equivalent to a request for data deletion in general.
