After reaching out to Apple’s Privacy Team in the EU on January 17, 2024, we received a response today regarding keyboard data synced with iCloud. Key points:

👉 The data is end-to-end encrypted

👉 Users cannot delete or reset this data unless they delete their Apple account

@mysk There is a setting to reset the keyboard dictionary, so is this something different? Or does that setting not fully clear the user’s keyboard history?

@mysk Try sending a GDPR erasure request specifically for that data. Refusing to honor a scoped deletion request might violate GDPR's principle of fairness. Data being encrypted on Apple's end is also no excuse. They are a controller for that data and should have provided a self-service tool that operates on the user's device to pull and export data.
