A terminal stores in a storage section content distributed from a server and a data access power for deleting a service that differ from a service to which the content belongs in association with each other. The terminal determines, when the stored content requests the deletion of the differing service that is indicated by the statement contained in the content, whether or not the content and the data access power are stored in the storage section in association with each other. When the terminal has determined that the content that requested the deletion of the differing service and the data access power are stored in the storage section in association with each other, the terminal deletes content that belongs to the differing service from the storage section.
