End User License Agreement (EULA)

The User must be a single person — not a command, unit or any other group.

This license grants the User limited rights to use the software, software copies, serial number and documentation as expressly provided by this License. McMillan Study Guides, Inc. retains title to all the software, software copies, serial number and documentation.

The Licensee agrees to protect the software, software copies, serial number and documentation from unauthorized publication, use, reproduction or distribution.

PERSONAL USE ONLY

Your software and/or serial number are for your personal use only. If either is shared or transferred to anyone else, or if the EULA is violated in any other way, your software and serial number will be invalidated.

Please be sure to read this EULA carefully, as well as AFI 36-2605, Air Force Military Personnel Testing System, which states that sharing marked or unmarked commercial study guides constitutes a test compromise.

INSTALLATION LIMITATIONS

You are required to have a valid license for the software. Each valid license includes the ability to install on two concurrent machines that are both owned and operated by you. This clause intends to cover the Desktop and Laptop for a single User, not to be installed on multiple machines shared by users who inappropriately use the same serial number.

Multiple OS installations on a single machine must also be activated per install and each must have its own License and valid serial number — even if the machine has the same name and uses the same network cards.

ACTIVATION LIMITATIONS

WARNING: If a License is found to have been activated frequently, or from multiple IP addresses, the License may be revoked, and the software invalidated, at the sole discretion of McMillan Study Guides, Inc.

McM GOLD Studyware should be uninstalled from machines to complete the deactivation of the License on that machine. The software can then be installed and activated on a different machine, under the conditions of the EULA.

UNDER THIS LICENSE, YOU MAY NOT:

  • Copy the downloadable executable.
  • Loan, gift, rent, sell, lease or transfer the software or serial number to any other person or entity.

  • Allow multiple people to use this software and/or serial number.
  • Use a serial number that wasn't legitimately purchased from McMillan Study Guides, Inc.
