Deletion and Recovery of your Account
If you want to permanently delete your account you may easily request your account deletion at any time under your profile in the Game.
When you request to delete your account, you will need to answer two questions to identify you as the true account owner, which answers will enable us to successfully verify your account information. Subsequently, the account deletion process will automatically begin, subject to a 15-day cooling-off period, before the account including all its items and content will automatically be fully and irreversibly deleted. Whilst the deletion process is being undertaken, during the cooling-off period, your account will be deactivated and any content associated with the account will no longer be accessible by you but will continue to be visible to other users until the expiration of the cooling-off period. During the cooling-off period you will have the opportunity to recall your deletion request by sending us a message via the in-game portal or to bidking@elegoosehw.cn. If you do not recall your account within the cooling-off period, your account will, upon the expiration of the cooling-off period, automatically be irreversibly, fully and permanently deleted, including all items purchased and other associated content under your account. Following the deletion of your account and associated content, it may take us up to another 30 days to remove it from backups and disaster recovery systems.
The deletion of your account and any content associated with your account may not be permanently deleted where deletion would restrict our ability to: (i) investigate or identify illegal activity or violations of our Terms and policies (for example, to identify or investigate misuse of our products or systems); (ii) protect the safety and security of our products, systems and users; (iii) comply with a legal obligation, such as the preservation of evidence; or (iv) comply with a request of a judicial or administrative authority, law enforcement or a government agency.
If you have initiated the deletion or deactivation of your account by yourself (provided your account has not been deleted or deactivated by us due to your non-compliance with these Terms), then, until the expiration date of the cooling-off period (i.e. 15 calendar days from your deletion request), you will be able to recover or reactivate your account by contacting our customer services via the in-game portal or by email: bidking@elegoosehw.cn. Following such a request, you will need to answer two questions to identify you as the true account owner, which answers will enable us to successfully verify you as the legitimate account owner, recover your account and abort your account deletion process.

We use the term Virtual Items to mean rights that we license to you to access or use certain features that are made available in our Game. Examples may include access to digital or unlockable content, additional or enhanced functionality (including multiplayer services), virtual assets, in-game achievements, and virtual points, coins and currencies.

We also reserve the right to change prices without prior notice at any time before the formation of the contract. We cannot confirm the price of an item until your order is accepted.
All credit and charge card holders are subject to validation checks and authorisation by the card issuer. If the issuer of your payment card refuses to authorise payment to us, your order will not be accepted and we will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery.
It is your own responsibility and you must comply with the terms and conditions applicable to your chosen payment method, as set by the payment provider. We may add or remove any payment methods in relation to our Game at our sole discretion and without prior notice to you.
Every purchase order is subject to our acceptance and to the Game being available. If we cannot process your order, we will tell you why and, where possible, explain.

Unless explicitly required by applicable laws of the country where you live or work, we will not refund any amounts paid when: (i) you have been the victim of in-game scamming (however, we will try to assist you to recover your Account); (ii) your Account has been cancelled or suspended as a result of you violating these Terms; (iii) you have used unauthorised software to access our Game without our permission; (iv) we no longer offer offering any of the Virtual Items, Game for any reason or (v) you decided yourself to cancel your Account .
