When you purchase Worry-Free Business Security Services, you receive a license for the product(s) and a standard Maintenance Agreement. 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 for one (1) year from the date of purchase. After the first year, you must renew the Maintenance Agreement annually against then-current Trend Micro maintenance fees.
Note
Note
The Maintenance Agreement expires, but your License Agreement does not. If the Maintenance Agreement expires, scanning can still occur, but you will not be able to update the malware/virus pattern files, scan engine, or program files (even manually). Nor will you be entitled to receive technical support from Trend Micro.
Register and activate your Worry-Free Business Security Services license to enable the full functionality of the product.

When a fully licensed Activation Code expires, you can no longer download scan engine or pattern file updates. However, unlike an evaluation version Activation Code, when a fully licensed version Activation Code expires, all existing configurations and other settings remain in force. This provision maintains a level of protection in case you accidentally allow your license to expire.
You can renew a full version of Worry-Free Business Security Services by purchasing a maintenance renewal. You need an Activation Code to install the full versions.
