But there is no strict time window in the law.
That's not correct, as far as I understand it.
You must respond to a request for erasure without undue delay and at the latest within one month, letting the individual know whether you have erased the data in question, or that you have refused their request.
Though,
You can extend the time to respond by a further two months if the request is complex or you have received a number of requests from the individual. You must let the individual know within one month of receiving their request and explain why the extension is necessary.

UK law is not relevant here. Danish law is. Company interpretation is also irrelevant (which any kind of blog or website on the web is), actual court decision specify the law.
In contrast to Anglo-Saxon law, jurisdiction in most EU countries is based on individual cases. There are no precedents that are used. In the case of FAForever and its peculiarities, a ruling can therefore be completely different than in the context of a for-profit company.

@brutus5000 The article in question discusses the GDPR, which is an EU-wide privacy law. This website (specifically from the EU) has a copy of the complete law and discusses some of its articles.
In any case, I am not a lawyer, and you guys probably know what you're all doing. o/

Dude that website is not from the EU but from some consulting firm.
Also EU law always needs to be transfered into national law. And I mention this particularly, because some countries can decide go stricter than EU law, but never more relaxed.
