Prohibited Uses

It is expressly forbidden to

  • Reverse engineer the source code of the Software or to decompile the Software, except to the extent permitted by mandatory law or applicable open source license;
  • Redistribute the Software as part of a product, "appliance" or "virtual server";
  • Share your license key(s) or use someone else's license key(s);
  • Sublicense the Software or otherwise make available the Software to third parties, including by rental, Software-as-a-Service models or otherwise;
  • Modify the Software, except to the extent permitted by mandatory law;
  • Remove or obscure copyright or trademark notices, or the copyright and trademark notices of third parties that have been included in the Software;
  • Use the Software in any manner that is illegal or not authorized by this EULA;

Concurrent Use

If you are agreeing to this EULA as an individual, if you purchased 1 license you may install and activate the Software on up to 2 compatible personal computers or workstations of which you are the primary user, only if you are the only one using the Software on these computers.

If you are agreeing to this EULA not as an individual but on behalf of an entity, you may install and activate the Software on a number of personal computers or workstations up to the number of licenses you purchased; provided, however, that the maximum number of users accessing and using the Software is equal to the number of purchased licenses. For the avoidance of doubt, if you purchased 5 licenses, you may install and activate the Software on 5 workstations, and it may only be used by 5 users in total.

Concurrent Use in a Virtualization Environment

If you are agreeing to this EULA not as an individual but on behalf of an entity, you may install a copy of the Software on an hardware partition, terminal server, or in any other virtualization environment (collectively "Virtualization Environment") within your internal network for the sole and exclusive purpose of permitting individual users within your organization to access and use the Software through the Virtualization Environment from another computer provided that the total number of users that access or use the Software at any given time does not exceed the number of purchased license keys.

For the avoidance of doubt, if you purchased 5 licenses, you may make the software available for use on a virtualization environment by 5 users in total. For the avoidance of doubt, in a cluster of 10 virtualization servers, hosting a total of 100 users, out of which just a total of 7 users will be using the Software, you would need to purchase 7 licenses. For the avoidance of doubt, if 7 users may ever access the Software, and there's at most 2 concurrent users using the Software at the same time, then you would need to purchase 7 licenses.
