The Software generates a unique computer fingerprint (hardware ID) during activation
This fingerprint is not reversible and cannot identify you personally

Activation data is stored on our secure server and encrypted
You can deactivate a PC at any time by contacting us, allowing you to transfer your license to a new computer.

You may request deletion of your personal data at any time (see Section 9).

We take security seriously:
🔐 All data transmitted between the Software and our servers is encrypted using TLS 1.2+ (bank-grade encryption)
🔐 License activation data is stored in a firewalled database with restricted access
🔐 We do NOT store your credit card information
🔐 Source code is obfuscated to protect licensing logic
However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure. You use the Software at your own risk.
