The clause establishes the operational conditions under which account data is removed from the service platform. It creates two separate termination pathways: one automatic upon failed payment processing, and one discretionary after a defined inactivity period, each with different notice requirements.
Users must maintain valid payment methods to prevent account deletion upon renewal, and accounts without paid status will be terminated after one year of inactivity, resulting in permanent loss of associated account data. The terms specify that advance notice applies only to inactivity-based termination, not payment-failure scenarios.
