The standard Maintenance Agreement is a contract between your organization and Trend Micro, regarding your right to receive technical support and product updates in consideration for the payment of applicable fees. A license to the Trend Micro software usually includes the right to product updates, pattern file updates, and basic technical support (“Maintenance”) for one (1) year from the date of purchase only. After the first year, Maintenance must be renewed on an annual basis at Trend Micro’s then-current Maintenance fees. The Maintenance Agreement expires. Your License Agreement does not.
