Dear friends,
the development of antivirus software is very expensive "hobby" and we can't allow anybody to use avast! for free - it's true that can hurt...
avast! 4 Home Edition is free for home non-commercial use only. Both these conditions should be met! And because most of charity, non-profit organization, schools etc. aren't home based, they can't use avast! 4 Home. It's the worst part of the answer.
But there is a second, little bit better part of answer. All these institutions can apply for a special discount
:
1. Non-profit charity organization - 50% off the list price
2. Schools & other educational institutions - 50% off the list price
3. Health care institutions (docs, hospitals etc.) - 30% off the list price
4. Goverment instituions (central or local) - 30% off the list price
If you're going to purchase avast! online, you can ask for your discount "coupon" at
sales@avast.com. If you like to purchase avast! through our partners or directly from us, ask for your discount in your order.
In very special cases we can allow the small licenses for very poor organization to be used for free, but don't ask for such license if you're not living in the poorest countris of the world. Before applying for free license, bo so kind and ask yourself: "Are we so poor that we can't spend about $10 for one year of virus protection per PC (over 20 licenses)?"
We'll describe this point in more details on our Web site next week.
