2. Terms of License.
We hereby grant you a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to install and use the Software on this single computer or workstation (machine), to be used exclusively by the single, named individual specified on the applicable invoice. A machine-specific license key will be provided to you. This key will expire upon termination of your right to use the Software. Unless you have purchased the Server License Option, as described in 2(f), this is not a license to store the Software on a network server computer. This Software is licensed as a single product and its component parts may not be separated for use on more than one computer.
(a) Limited Time Evaluation License. If this license is for evaluation purposes, the license will expire at the end of the evaluation period. The length of the evaluation period will be dependant upon your particular arrangement with us and will be confirmed in a separate correspondence between you and us. If other people within your company would like to evaluate the Software, they may request separate license keys for their machines at no additional charge. The scope of the evaluation license is limited to evaluation purposes internal to your company.
(b) Annual License. If the license is not for a limited time evaluation, then the license is for a term of one (1) year from the applicable invoice date, unless stated otherwise on your invoice, and you may use the Software for any internal purpose. This license does not include the right to market, sell, distribute, or sublicense the Software to any third parties.
(c) Secondary Copies. If the license in not a Multi-User or Site License, then the named user of the license may make a second copy for his or her exclusive use on a portable computer. An additional license key is required for the portable computer, which we will provide at no additional charge.
(d) Site License. If this license is for a machine covered by a separate Site License Agreement with us, you may install additional copies of the Software up to the number of machines specified in that Site License Agreement. The Site License is for the term of one (1) year from the applicable invoice date unless stated otherwise in the Site License Agreement or on the applicable invoice. A machine-specific key is required for each computer that is added to the Site License.
(e) Multi-User License. If you purchased a multi-user license, then you may install the Software on one computer for use by any individual in your organization. The software is not to be used by people outside of your organization. The multi-user license does not allow you to put the Software on a server, nor any other device that enables remote access.
(f) Server License Option. If you have purchased the Server License Option, then you may install the Software on one server that allows you to access the Software from anywhere within your organization. The Software must be installed in such a way that it is inaccessible by anyone outside of your organization. The other terms of your license, whether a single- or multi-user license, remain in effect. For example, if you have a single user license, the Server License Option does not grant access to the software to anyone other than the single, named user.
(g) Renewal. Unless special terms have been detailed on your invoice, pricing for renewing your license will be based on the renewal prices and policies in effect as of the date you actually renew. The start date of your renewal license will be the day following the expiration of your prior license, and not the date you actually renew. If you do not renew your license within 60 days of its expiration, you will no longer be eligible for renewal pricing and will have to buy a new license based on then-current pricing policies.
