Jon Clarke Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Just want to understand exactly what EULA is and what relevance it has to non EU buyers in for example US, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. As one who rarely reads small print (cos I want the addon anyway!) I am unsure what EULA determines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
