Commercially purchased one-time licenses can be used on a maximum of one device, monthly or annual subscription licenses can be stored on a maximum of two devices at the same time.

“If a consumer has not submitted his contract declaration either in the premises used by the entrepreneur for his business purposes or at a stand used by the latter at a trade fair or market, he can withdraw from his contract application or from the contract. This withdrawal can be declared up to the conclusion of the contract or within one week thereafter; the period begins with the delivery of a document containing at least the name and address of the entrepreneur, the information necessary to identify the contract as well as an instruction on the right of withdrawal to the consumer, but at the earliest with the conclusion of the contract.

1. if he himself has initiated the business relationship with the entrepreneur or his agent for the purpose of concluding this contract
2. if the conclusion of the contract was not preceded by a discussion between the parties or their agents (…)”

“The withdrawal must be in writing to be legally effective. It is sufficient for the consumer to show a document containing his or her contract declaration or that of the entrepreneur to the entrepreneur or his agent who participated in the contract negotiation with a note indicating that the consumer has concluded or maintained the contract refuses. It is sufficient if the declaration is sent within the withdrawal period mentioned above. “
