Licence terms
What your IPX licence allows you to do, in plain language.
1. Licensor
HMF-IT UG (haftungsbeschränkt), Parkstr. 31, 49080 Osnabrück, Germany. IPX remains our intellectual property. You acquire a right of use, not ownership of the software.
2. Scope of use per edition
| Edition | Devices | Who may use it? |
|---|---|---|
| Single licence | up to 2 PCs | one named person, privately and professionally |
| Team | up to 5 PCs | the employees of a company, agency or organisation |
| Company | up to 15 PCs | the employees of a company or IT service provider, also at several locations |
| Trial | any | for trying out: 30 days with all tools |
| Basic | any | free and unlimited in time: My IP & adapters, Ping, Subnet calculator, IP/host lookup, DNS records, WHOIS, Reverse DNS, HTTP headers, SSL/TLS check |
The full version is activated once online with the licence key; afterwards it runs without internet. You release a PC in the program under Settings › Licence to use the licence on another one.
The licence is perpetual (no subscription). All updates for version 3 are included. A portable copy, for example on a USB stick, counts as one PC. Need more PCs? Contact us.
3. What is not allowed
- passing on, publishing or selling licence keys
- renting out, lending or offering the software as your own
- circumventing protection mechanisms
- decompiling or modifying the software unless expressly permitted by law (§ 69d, § 69e UrhG)
- using the tools against systems you are not authorised for (see § 8 of the terms)
4. Your data
History, favourites and watchlist belong to you. IPX stores them in open JSON files on your PC and can export every result as HTML, PDF, text or JSON – even after the licence ends.
5. Warranty and liability
The provisions of our terms apply.
6. End of the licence
In the event of a serious breach of these terms, the licence may be terminated after a prior warning. After a withdrawal from the purchase the licence key becomes invalid; the basic tools remain usable.
