Since the forms are storing potentially private information to the database (when enabled), there should be an easy way to export, or delete the data that could be stored for a specific user if they request it (GDPR compliance).

WordPress already has tools available for fetching private data included:

So it should be easy to implement in the plugin to make it compliant.

sure, why not, as we are not storing users email directly but as a part of generic data I will need to create an option to search the data an provide the export. This only implies If you have "users that can login" on your website. correct?

Well, since in some forms you can store user's email, it wouldn't matter if they can or cannot login. The email is a private information, based on which you'd perform a search.

It would be easier if in the database table where you stored the form data had the email in a separate field (as an optional nullable field, as some forms may not have email field in them, so you don't need to search those).
