Important Notes - Offlines services
Notes: Offline services include: provision of authorization codes and/or licens files for secure documents; code re-setting; technical support and advice service; administration program for generating own secure files and authorization codes or license files, code resetting and management reporting. When calculating the number of codes or license files you require, estimate this as the number of documents times the number of separate users for each document. Multiple use codes (e.g. 2x, 3x usage) can be counted as a single code if for a specific individual, otherwise should be counted as multiple codes (e.g. where codes can be set to 30x usage etc. and/or reset). Where a publisher opts to cancel a subscription service their allocation of "paid for" codes at that point will be computed and any additional codes issued or generated at that point in time will be reset to zero (i.e. will no longer be available for use). Where subscriptions are renewed on an annual basis at the same service level, any unused quota of codes or licenses are carried forward into the quota for the following period.
Please also see the About page for more details and terms and conditions of usage. Non-renewal of subscription services or expiry of registration or non-payment for services when due will result in service management facilities and code generation being disabled (please see the "bundle pack" options for 3-year service arrangements without subscriptions). For all codes generated, whether via subscription services or one-time "bundle pack" options, re-setting and/or re-assignment of codes to different users or documentIDs is not permitted and provision of secured documents and codes to third parties for resale or onward distribution is not permitted. These options do not include development resources (other than initial 'getting started' help) so if additional assistance is required to establish your e-store facility then you may need to order some consultancy resource, based on the information we will provide by individual quotation. Payment can be made via standard Card payment, Bank Transfer (Annual and other one-time payments only) or via PayPal
