Last updated October 2018

Thank you for choosing a Microsoft Office 365 Consumer Subscription!  

Your use of the Office 365 Consumer Subscription service and software is governed by the terms and conditions of the Microsoft Services Agreement you agreed to when you signed up for a Microsoft Account (linked below) and the terms and conditions of this Supplement (collectively, the “Agreement”), which with other terms contained in web links listed in this Supplement (if any) are an agreement between you and Microsoft Corporation (or, based on where you live, one of its affiliates).  A separate license may be presented when installing or using the software on a device, and that separate license controls to the extent of any conflict with the Agreement. You should review this entire Supplement, including any linked terms, because all the terms are important and create this contract that applies to you. You can review linked terms by pasting the applicable link into your browser window.  In the event of any conflict between the Microsoft Services Agreement and this Supplement, this Supplement will govern as to your use of an Office 365 Consumer Subscription.

By accepting this Supplement or using the service and software, you agree to all these terms and consent to the transmission of certain information during activation and during your use of the software pursuant to the Microsoft Privacy Statement described in the Microsoft Services Agreement and linked below in this Supplement. If you do not accept and comply with these terms, you may not use the services, software or their features.

1.            Installation and Use Rights; Activation.  

a.    License; Number of Users and Devices Signed In; Other Requirements. The software is licensed, not sold. Provided that you comply with all the terms of the Agreement, we grant you the right to install and run copies of the software on devices you own and control, and for your personal use, as follows:

        (i)    Office 365 Home. For use by you and five (5) additional members of your household (up to six users total).

        (ii)   Office 365 Personal, Office 365 University and Office 365 Solo. For use by you only.  The non-commercial use restriction set forth in the Microsoft Services Agreement does not apply to users of Office 365 Solo.

        (iii) Devices Signed In. There may be technical limits on the number of devices that can be signed in by a user concurrently to use the service/software, as described in the help article found at https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid='874481.'

        (iv) Other Requirements. Except as permitted under Section 1.a(i) above, only one person at a time may use the service/software on each device. The service/software may not be used for commercial, non-profit, or revenue-generating activities. The components of the software are licensed as a single unit, and you may not separate or virtualize the components and install them on different devices. Except for the permitted use described under “Remote Access” below, this license is for direct use of the software only through the input mechanisms of a device, such as a keyboard, mouse, or touchscreen.  Installation of the software on a server or for use by or through other devices connected to the server over an internal or external network and commercial hosting are expressly prohibited.For more information on multiple user scenarios and virtualization, see Section 1.d below.

b.    Subscription Period/License Term. Your right to use the service/software is limited to the subscription period.You may have the option to extend your subscription. If you extend your subscription, you may continue using the service/software until the end of your extended subscription period. See the software activation screens or other accompanying materials for subscription details. After the expiration of your subscription, most features of the service and software will stop running.

c.     Activation.  

        (i)    How It Works. Activation associates the use of the service/software with a specific device.  Activation is required for each device to which a software license is assigned. During activation, the software will automatically contact Microsoft or its affiliate to confirm that the license is associated with that device. Because activation is meant to identify unauthorized changes to the licensing or activation functions of the software, and to otherwise prevent unlicensed use of the software, you have no right to use the service/software after the time permitted for activation and you may not bypass or circumvent activation.  If you have not entered a product key during the time permitted for initial activation, most features of the service and software will stop running.

        (ii)   Connecting to Microsoft. For more information about activation, see microsoft.com/piracy/activation.mspx. If the device is connected to the Internet, the software will automatically connect to Microsoft for activation. You can also activate the software manually by Internet. Internet service charges may apply.

        (iii) Re-activation. Some changes to your device components or the software may require re-activation of the software.

        (iv) Activation failure.During online activation, if the licensing or activation functions of the software are found to be counterfeit or improperly licensed, activation will fail. The software will notify you if the installed copy of the software is improperly licensed. In addition, you will receive reminders to obtain a properly licensed copy of the software.

d.    Multi-Use Scenarios.

        (i)    Device. In this agreement, “device” means a computer hardware system (whether physical or virtual) with a storage device or a mobile device capable of running the software. A hardware partition or blade is considered to be a device.

        (ii)   Multiple or pooled connections.You may not use hardware or software to multiplex or pool connections, or otherwise allow multiple users or multiple devices to access or use the software indirectly through a device.

        (iii) Use in a virtualized environment. If you use virtualization software, including client hyper-v, to create one or more virtual devices on a single computer hardware system, each virtual device, and the physical device, is considered a separate device for purposes of this agreement. This license allows you to install only one copy of the software for use on each device permitted under the installation and use rights above, whether that device is physical or virtual.  If you want to virtualize the software, you must obtain separate copies of the software and a separate license for each copy. Content protected by digital rights management technology or other full-volume disk drive encryption technology may be less secure in a virtualized environment.

        (iv) Remote access: As an exception, you may allow others to access the software installed on your devices remotely and simultaneously from another device only to provide you with technical support.
