How can I wipe data like pics and contact on Nokia Lumia 1020 and KEEP THE PHONE UNLOCKED??

[Windows Central Question]

I have an unlock Nokia 1020 Lumia. I want to wipe data such as pic and contacts but I want to make sure it stay UNLOCKED. If I did a factory reset, not sure it the phone will remain Unlocked?? what's the easiest way to wipe data and make sure my phone is still unlocked??

Factory reset doesn't have anything to do with your phone being unlocked or not.

I agree with 2 Shirts. Factory Reset does not delete your unlock.
