Unless it was specified at the time of delivery or download or in the relevant pricing plan, the Licence permits you to use the Software on a single computer system for single use only upon the terms and subject to the conditions contained herein. The Software may NOT be transferred electronically from one computer to another nor used over a network, unless this was explicitly authorized by the Licensor at the time of delivery or download. Please contact the Licensor to purchase additional or special licences if you intend the Software to be used by multiple users or systems and this was not explicitly authorized at the time of delivery or download. 

(b) The Licensee acknowledges that if so specified at the time of delivery or downloading of the Software, the use of the Software may be conditional upon the use of a security code provided by the Licensor.

2.Licence Fee

The fee is due at the beginning of the subscription. Unless otherwise stated in the pricing plan, you may cancel your subscription with a notice to be received 30 days before the expiry; otherwise the subscription will automatically be renewed for an additional same period, under the same conditions. Early termination or non-use of the Software does not entitle you to a refund of the licence fee already paid.
