A: All of our products are delivered via ESD (Electronic Software Delivery) only. After purchase a customer will be able to download registration keys or passwords and download links for archives of full software versions.

A: We admit that our customers are interested in getting well-described purchase information. Therefore, we recommend you to take advantage of our free trial software downloads, available on our website.

We're sorry, but we cannot give a refund for the following reasons:

• You have chosen the wrong product during the purchase process.
• You have bought the wrong version for your development environment.
• Your computer doesn't meet the minimal system requirements.
• You changed your mind after you had purchased the product.

We approve of refund only if these both following conditions are met:

When your refund request has been reviewed, we will send our consent on processing refund to the e-commerce provider. Your refund will be credited to the credit card charged during your original transaction. E-commerce provider will contact you by E-mail to confirm that the refund has been paid.

NOTE: Charge backs to credit cards or stop payments on checks as a means to "returning" of software will be construed as fraud and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

A: We are Sorry, but no. When a customer purchases a software license, the software is registered for the customer's name. Once registered, this software cannot be transferred to a third party. Active Database Software provides technical support only for original customers.

A: FlySpeed Software Maintenance Program is a cost-effective and comprehensive program that includes technical support, software updates, and many other benefits. The primary benefit of this program is that having the functioning maintenance subscription you automatically receive the newest versions of software upon release at no additional cost. This allows you and your organization to keep up with the latest software technology developments, take advantage of usability improvements, and manage software licenses more easily. As a participant of the FlySpeed Software Maintenance Program you are eligible for:

• Technical Support assistance from skilled and experienced professionals
• Consultations on operational aspects of the software
• Free software enhancements, updates and upgrades during the maintenance period

A: Maintenance pricing is a percentage of the SRP (Standard Retail Price) of the product for which maintenance is purchased. Maintenance pricing depends on the period you purchase it for and makes:

• 1 year Maintenance - 30% of the product SRP
• 2 year Maintenance - 25% of the product SRP per each year
• 3 year Maintenance - 20% of the product SRP per each year

Thus, if you would prefer longer term coverage, you can purchase 3 year Maintenance for only 60% of the product SRP, which is a lot cheaper compared to paying 30% annually. Maintenance will always be quoted as a percentage of SRP rather than of net, or purchase, price. Pricing for maintenance terms beyond 3 years will be provided upon request.

A:The easiest way to purchase Maintenance is to set the appropriate option during the purchase process. To renew Maintenance or to purchase it separately, please contact us at sales.

A: The Maintenance term begins on the purchase date of your software product.
