You are allowed to install JReviews on a single domain per license. To enforce this we use a licensing system based on local key and remote checking. We think this system provides the most flexibility because:

(a) it allows you to move your license to a different domain if you need to; and

(b) if you don't like the remote checking you can request a permanent in the Client Area key two months after placing your order. After requesting a permanent key, you won't be able to move your license to a different domain.

Why does it say the local key expires in the JReviews administration?

Even though your license never expires, the local key has a valid life of 15 days. When the 15-day period has passed, the key is automatically renewed and stored in the database. This is done to reduce the risk of fraud and enables you to move the license as explained above.

You are allowed to use JReviews in subdomains. This excludes domain suffixes, such as countries and business types. For example .com, .org and .net are different domains. To enable the license to work on subdomains please submit a ticket, after activation, requesting the license change.
