LICENSE VIOLATIONS AND SOFTWARE PIRACY
License
Remember that each purchased copy of the WP-SpamShield license allows you one single-use (WordPress install), on one web domain only.

Multiple Domains/Installs
If you need to use the plugin on multiple web domains or on multiple WordPress installs, you will need to purchase a separate license for each.

For more information on license terms, see the CodeCanyon License FAQs. https://codecanyon.net/licenses/faq

WordPress Multisite
When you install a plugin on a WordPress multisite install, it has been installed on all sites in the network, whether the plugin is activated on each site or not, so you need to plan accordingly. If these sites are on different web domains, you would need individual licenses for each web domain in the multisite network.

Exceeding License Limits
Using WP-SpamShield on multiple web domains or multiple WordPress installs without having the appropriate number of licenses, is a violation of your software license, and it constitutes illegal software piracy. We take software piracy very seriously, and investigate all such cases.

This situation can easily be avoided by simply buying the correct number of licenses.

What is Software Piracy?
The unauthorized reproduction or distribution of copyrighted software is illegal and constitutes Software Piracy. (This includes using a premium WordPress plugin on more sites/installs than you have purchased licenses for.)

Criminal copyright infringement, including infringement without monetary gain, is investigated by the FBI and other international law enforcement agencies and is punishable by fines and imprisonment.

Software Piracy is a serious crime and will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

This is not intended to constitute legal advice, so if you have legal questions, we recommend that you seek the advice of your own legal counsel.

Pirated Software is a Security Risk
Pirated software (“nulled”, “warez”, “shared”, etc.) is extremely dangerous to use, and almost always contain malware that will compromise your website to hackers. Understand that “warez” or “nulled” plugin sites claim to be benevolent, but they exist solely to distribute malware-laden software and hack your website.

As with any WordPress plugin, for your website security and to avoid legal issues, you should only download plugins from the author’s site, or from a reputable authorized plugin directory. In this case, WP-SpamShield can only be legally obtained by purchasing a license at CodeCanyon. We cannot endorse or support a version of WP-SpamShield that you may have downloaded from another site.

If you have downloaded “WP-SpamShield” or a similar sounding plugin from another site, then your copy is not legitimate and is not safe to use on your site. Please purchase and download the current release from the only official source, CodeCanyon. https://codecanyon.net/item/wpspamshield/21067720
