Once that’s done, you can set up auto-delete in the same way for Audio recordings. It’s not a bad idea to purge data from Google occasionally. Google uses this data to try and make services (and ads) more personalized, however, data from 18 or 36 months ago is probably not terribly relevant to what you want to do.
