A substantive edit goes through review again, the same as a new submission. While it waits, nothing changes for your buyers: the version they paid for stays published and readable, their access clocks run on, and no email goes out. When a reviewer clears your edit, the new text replaces the old one.
Only BSVSearch taking the work down stops your buyers reading it — that pauses every buyer's clock and tells them, and when the work is cleared again the time is added back. You can archive the work yourself only once nobody holds access to it.
