- We will no longer have access to your payment transactions
- All currency (including NCoin and Protobucks) on your account will be deleted.

How does Account Deletion work?
The process of Account Deletion is relatively simple:
- First, you submit your deletion request from your Account Management page or by contacting the Customer Support Team.
- The effective deletion date will be 21 days from when you submit the request, regardless of when you receive the confirmation. This date will be reflected in the confirmation email you receive from support, as well as on your Account Management page.
- After you submit the request, the Customer Support Team will review your request and either ask for additional information to verify account ownership or send you confirmation that your account has been confirmed for deletion.
- You will receive two additional emails from us within the 21-day time-frame:
- The first is just a reminder that your account is scheduled for deletion
- The second is confirmation that your deletion request is scheduled for that same day. It will be the last email you receive from us.
- After the deletion date, we will have removed your personal data from our systems and will no longer be able to access any historical data associated with your account.

Can I cancel an Account Deletion request?
