Is it legal for Kabam to expire items you purchased in-game with cash?

I know in California, there are laws against things you purchase and it expiring. Purchases made with cash, not units...should they be able to expire? Just wondering if anyone knows.

    I had this conversation with support. Purchased items are broken down into two categories: currency (units/gold) and consumables. They don’t let currencies expire, but they do consumables.

    Seems like a real thin hair their splitting to me, but some in my ally thought it made sense.

    The law says that ingame currencies bought with real cash can't expire. Takes like 2 mins of googling or less and you'll have your answer

    Well since you don’t own anything on your account, it legally shouldn’t be an issue right?

    Yea so in game currencies would be units, gold, battle chips, loyalty and so on but not items such as sig stones or t5b.
    Yea this is why everything you can buy with comes with either units or gold. The rest is "extra" and they can say you're purchasing the currency.

    Everything physical has an expiry date, don’t see why it would be different for virtual products, as long as the information is shared
