For a Site/App that makes it impossible to delete an account, or for a page that is not yet listed, a link to a service like this would be useful:
https://yourdigitalrights.org/

Here, a user can send "legally valid" emails based on the law of the region and, if they refuse to delete the data, send this to the responsible authority.

Nice suggestion, didn't know such a thing existed and I am surprised to see it even supports Brazil's LGPD :)

It's a nice suggestion indeed. But it's also a bit unnecessary in my option. I know where to go with a simple web search and even already have bookmarked the place i need to be for my complains. Ironically enough, stuff like the links listed below are insanely handy for this.

(didn't look into Brazil's LGPD complaint method yet)

I understand, that some people do know that, or know what to search. But the reason for jdm is to help people, and make privacy more accessible. And at least some information would be nice :)

(Thats my understanding of this tool)

True that. But i think linking a tool rather then a actual official government source. First, comes kind of over like a behind the scenes sponsorship deal. Two, biased choose/opinion. Three, kind of fishy (when you're new to the website).
