## 4.2 Deleting or Purging PII data

There are two ways in which PII data can be deleted or purged from the system.

- Using User Interface
  The information created in (or owned by) OBAPI can be deleted from its user interface. For example, a retail user can delete the beneficiaries he/she has maintained. Please refer to the ‘Manage Payee’ topic of User Manual Oracle Banking Digital Experience Retail Payments for more details.
- Using purge procedures
  OBAPI provides some out of the box purge procedure that can be used to purge the data. Otherwise the DBA / IT staff can prepare similar procedures to purge required data.
- Deleting or Purging PII data
  In scenarios where OBAPI does not have user interface to remove customer data and scheduled purge option is not useful, then data needs to be purged using SQL scripts.
