This data is retained in accordance with Section 10 of this policy and may still be used as evidence in dispute or legal situations even after your account has been deleted. Deletion of your account does not constitute deletion of your transaction history and does not affect any obligations you agreed to under our Terms of Service or Refund Policy. All sales remain final following account deletion.
