You can keep contact info even after a GDPR deletion request, so long as you're not using it for business purposes.

Otherwise imagine how easy it would be to violate the deletion request if you're running a business and can't remember the names of the people you had deletion requests for. Their data could come up again through normal channels and you'd treat them no differently than another sales contact, thus violating GDPR.
