- A License Code is what you activate on each individual computer
- An Upgrade Code is what you can use to upgrade a license to the latest version
From the time of activation of a license on a computer, your activation code is valid with all versions that will be released in the upcoming 12 months.
When a license expires, it will continue to work with its latest compatible version. You can upgrade your license using an Upgrade Code. You are not required to upgrade immediately after those 12 months, upgrade codes can be used anytime and will upgrade any version to the latest version. Upgrading a license will give you a new activation code for the same machine over the years, which is again valid with all versions released within the upcoming 12 months.
We do HIGHLY RECOMMEND to upgrade regularly. Upgrading reguraly ensures compatibility with the latest Windows versions, patched Cyber Security issues, improved performance, and have access to the latest features.

NOT FOR RESALE
Our licenses are, under any circumstances, by our policy, NOT for individual (re)sale, offline or online. Licenses may only be sold by integrators or OEM in the context of their own installations / machines designated for their own End-User. Infringement to this policy leads to a claim.LIFETIME NOTE
You can only activate a license exactly ONCE. The license has the same lifetime as the computer hardware it is installed on. If the computer hardware would break down, stolen, lost, alternated, changed, or anything else, you will need to buy a new license. For these reasons, we keep the prices low. If you reinstall the operating system, and the computer hardware did not change in any way, you can reuse the same license on the same computer without problem. We recommend End-Users, Integrators and OEM to keep at least one license in stock. In case of an unfortunate event, contact us and we're open to listen to your story.Computer ID
Licenses are BOUND to the computer hardware configuration. You may NOT change the hardware configuration of the computer after deploying the license. We make an exception to Disk Space and RAM Memory and the Power Supply. You may expand this anytime, the Computer ID will not change. You may also change the Computer Name, Workgroup or Domain. For example, you may not change (including but not limited): Motherboard, CPU, RAM Type, Disk Type, Network Adapters, ...VIRTUALIZATION
Licenses may be installed on virtual machines. Please note that, virtual machines may NOT be cloned or shared whereas the same license would be used on multiple places at the same time. This is an infringement of our policy. Infringement to this policy leads to a claim.EXPIRY
Bought licenses and upgrades do not expire. We recommend to keep a license in stock in case of installing new hardware.OWNERSHIP
Licenses are bound to the email address of the person or company who bought the license. If you wish to change ownership, contact us.POLICY
