SECURECRYPT may also terminate these Terms with you at any time, for any reason, and without advanced notice. That means we may stop providing you with any Services or impose new or additional limits on your ability to use the Services. For example, we may deactivate your account due to prolonged inactivity or a breach of these Terms, and we may reclaim your username at any time for any reason.
