Battle Foundry only uses such data in the aggregate.

If your account is suspended or interrupted, you are not relieved of the obligation to pay the monthly account charges. Only a written notice to cancel this agreement relieves you of future charges. If you send us written notice via E-Mail, we will contact you or your authorized representative by phone to confirm you decision to cancel this agreement. If you cancel this agreement, payments for pre-paid months beyond the current month shall be refunded unless you are under contractual obligation for those payments.

The Subscriber is still liable for any and all charges incurred until the time of disconnection and any collection/legal fees incurred in the collection of the debt.
