Everything you want to know
Can an organisation refuse to erase my data?
Only where a statutory retention period applies to part of it; in that case they must tell you which categories are kept, on what ground and for how long.
Does the organisation have to notify others too?
Yes, Article 17 GDPR requires them to pass the erasure request on to every party your data has been shared with, and to confirm to you which parties those are.
