I definitely understand the importance of having your phone secured at all times as well as preserving your battery life. Your battery will be consumed every time an app is running in the background.  Disabling the app will stop battery usage. If you would like to stop notifications as well as preventing battery usage from this app, please go into the phone Settings>Apps>select Security and Privacy>select force stop and Uninstall. Please let me know if that works.
