As described, not AT ALL related to Exim, as Exim does not implement the
functionality you are asking about.

Maybe you should ask ask lawyers then, rather than Exim admins. Ideally,
ask a lawyer with relevant experience and expertise that you have paid
to give you legal advice.

I am not a lawyer and have no experience at all interacting with EU law
in any meaningful way. However, for over 20 years I've had a steady
trickle of occasional Germans tell me with absolute certainty that the
way I configure and manage mail servers violates German privacy law. No
lawyer has ever told me the same thing, even German lawyers when
discussing systems subject to German law in a professional business
context.

Everyone who has ever asserted to me that I could not legally configure
a mail system to reject or discard or content-filter or preserve email
in a particular way has been a spammer, a spammer's collaborator, a mail
admin, or some combination of the three. None have been lawyers
qualified to make such assertions.

I am not a lawyer. This is not legal advice. If you want legal advice,
find a lawyer.
