4. Data Exchange and Security

4.1. Software Activation

The SOFTWARE requires activation by VENDOR's license server. Therefore SOFTWARE uses Internet protocols to connect VENDOR. Username and password of your customer account are required for activation. In order to prevent pirate copy, the SOFTWARE activation is hardware signature dependent.

Activating the SOFTWARE consumes an activation ticket. The number of activation tickets available in the license is defined in section 3. Once, the SOFTWARE is activated on a computer, the hardware signature of the computer is registered and cannot be unregistered at VENDOR's license server.

Some changes to computer components may require re-activation of the SOFTWARE which will consume another activation ticket. Reactivation of the SOFTWARE on an already registered computer with unchanged hardware signature will not consume an activation ticket. You take notice, that the number of activation tickets included in the license agreement is granted for the purpose of reactivation in the event of hardware changes. After expiring the maximum number of activations, there is no claim for further activation tickets within this agreement.

4.2. Privacy

During activation, the SOFTWARE will send information about the SOFTWARE to VENDOR. This includes your username and password, the software version, the language code currently used in the SOFTWARE and a hash of your computer's hardware signature. The hash code of the hardware signature does not contain any personal information. It is persistently stored in databases in combination with your username. By complying with the License Agreement, you entitle VENDOR to collect and store these hashed hardware signatures.

During request for updates and request for plug-ins as well as plug-in installation, the SOFTWARE sends information to VENDOR that is required to make these functions available to you. This information includes your username and password, the license ID and license edition, the software version, the type of operation system and processor architecture of the computer and the language code used in the SOFTWARE.

In no situation, the SOFTWARE will send any personal data, usage data or any files created or used in combination with the SOFTWARE to the VENDOR except when explicitly and individually granted by the end user.

4.3. Cryptography

All communication between the SOFTWARE and the VENDOR's web services is protected by cryptography (AES, RSA, SHA-2). Furthermore, cryptography is applied when end users protect documents by password. By complying with this End User License Agreement, you explicitly declare to follow local laws related to cryptography in the country where you are using the SOFTWARE, if any. You confirm that it is legal to import cryptography-using software from Germany into your country and you release VENDOR from any claims arising from thereof.
