How Software Ownership Works, Correct and Alternative Way of Software Deactivation

All software sold by am.co.za and affiliate companies, eg Buythis.co.za are either activated via software dongle, (eg.
FabriCAM); or activation code (VinylCut) as is in agreement with the respective software developer, therefore to also imply to client who bought the software – that the software ownership is not transferable.

We will only provide software deactivation service (if possible for such software) to the client who initially bought the software.

This basic term is also reflected in the terms of every software package of suite we sell, e.g on https://buythis.co.za/s-vinylcut

About Software Activation and Deactivation

Licensed software are only allowed a single installation, there are two ways our softwares use to impose such
limitation:

For software with Dongle, when dongle is present (may need drivers), the software will be activated by itself.
For software activated with activation code, please make sure you have active internet when the time activates the software.

Follow these guides for our 3 most common software:
