I could not remember if it was half a year or less, but what the screenshot shows was exactly my reaction when I saw their email.

I totally understand they want to contact people, this is legitimate. I also totally understand they keep logs. And this is legitimate to think that warning potential users who didn't move their money was ethically a good act. But saying that they removed customer data was a lie. I even remember an email from a bot saying my data was removed (I didn't ask but totally fine by the way).

That's quite a mess. But I don't want to make people angry so lol.

Seems like maybe they preserved email addresses so users could login and check that Coinkite didn't have any other info?

I see... I checked the old group on Telegram I joined at the time. Dee said "We do destroy all customer data after 120 days". On their website it is written also "Remember to expect a “Your Data has been Blanked” email from Coinkite a few months after you interact with the store." (Source: https://blog.coinkite.com/paper-spam/)
And they defined personal data as "Personal information means information about an identifiable individual. This includes, for example, an individual’s name, home address, home phone number or e-mail address." (Source: https://coinkite.com/privacy)

So I guess this was more like political talk and "all customer data" didn't include "personal data" but only a specific subset of it.
It is quite convoluted.

Wow! All that hubris now trying to hide it like a coward

Looking again at your screenshot it might be appropriate to remember the song of the Monty Python movie Life of Brian, at the end when the Romans killed Jesus: "Always look at the bright side of life [whistles]"
