What is Piracy?
For computer software, the term "piracy" refers to copying, selling, distributing, or using software that hasn't been properly licensed — or paid for.
How does Piracy impact our Customers?
Software piracy certainly impacts our business, but our customers are the ultimate victims. Pirating software is stealing, and it is illegal. If revenues are lost due to piracy, fewer resources can be allocated to research and development of new products and solutions.
