I’m hesitating to approve a [point](https://edit.tosdr.org/points/37008) created for [Kayak](https://edit.tosdr.org/services/6266)

`You may remove your Trips Information from Trips at any time, but the license that you have granted will remain in effect.`

It was linked to _This service holds onto content that you’ve deleted_ ([Case](https://edit.tosdr.org/cases/174))

The issue is, they don’t say in the agreements they are _keeping_ that content, only a license. Is it only a way to say licenses are perpetual, or should a user understand deleted content is not really deleted?

The former: the thing is there’s no way to legally revoke a copyright licence except for a very narrow statutory revocation opportunity (must be between X and Y years after initial publication, and must compensate all current users) and explicitly negotiated revocation provision. Hence I’d rate it neutral: they can’t initiate a revocation on behalf of you just because you erased your content from their platform.
