License multilpe PC's and what about 3+sections after period

I've two questions:

1) I work with free-CintaNotes on 3 or more PC's.
I consider buying a license key because I like the application a lot.
But, do I have to buy as many license keys as PC's I run it on or will one be enough?

2) With a license you can make as many as Sections you want. OK.
But what will happen with section 4, 5, 6, etc, after I don't buy a new license key for a new period?
Will all the sections after 3 be deleted or so?

You will need one license only, as long as you work with one PC at a time only.

Your existing license will stay valid. That is, all existing functionality will remain at your hand. The update license is not about existing features, but will entitle you for future updates including new features.

@Alex, please confirm the information above.

Thomas, thanks for stepping in :)

Hi Awm,
really good questions!

1) Our licenses are per-user, so you'll need one license only provided that only you will be working with all 3 PCs.

2) Nothing will happen. The limitation will only affect your ability to create/import new sections.
Also as Thomas has said, you may opt not to update and stay with the last version your license key is valid for.

Thanks again for considering supporting the project!

I am confused. Are you saying, that after my license expires i will no longer be able to create new sections? I'd expect, that once i bought a lifetime PRO license, i can manager my sections as i like.

You license will expire only if you update to a CN version which is not covered by your license key. After that the license will revert to Free and you won't be able to create new sections in a given .db file if you have already 3 or more sections there - until you renew the license key. There's no such thing as a "lifetime PRO license". If you don't update CN then of course you'll be able to have as many sections as you want.

Yes, you're right. Thanks for clarifying.
