3. LICENSE ACTIVATION & VERIFICATION
===============================================================================

3.1 ACTIVATION REQUIREMENT
    The Software requires online activation to validate your license.

    to prevent unauthorized duplication.

    • LIFETIME licenses are not hardware-bound and may be used on multiple

      Device and reactivation on the new Device

    Once activated, the Software may function offline. Periodic online 
    verification may be required to maintain license validity.

3.4 TRIAL ACTIVATION

    • Trial period begins immediately upon first launch
    • Trial cannot be extended, reset, or reactivated on the same Hardware ID
