Research direction

Read the linked IBM Knowledge Center GDPR topic and contact Jim Mulvey to confirm whether it would help Open Liberty users. Then locate the appropriate Open Liberty documentation area and create an adapted topic that omits part numbers and “WebSphere” and fits the context of an open source project.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Check with Jim Mulvey (@jtmulvey) if this KC topic would be useful to users of OL: https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSAW57_liberty/com.ibm.websphere.wlp.nd.multiplatform.doc/ae/wlp_gdpr.html

If it is, create a topic but modify so that the OL version doesn't mention part numbers or "WebSphere" and make sure it makes sense in the context of OL (an open source project, not an IBM product).
