[Software] may come as a one-off purchase or a subscription-based software application. In a one-off purchase you will have a right to receive services or other rights for the maximum period of time indicated in the package you have purchased or - missing that indication - for up to five years. In a subscription-based software application you will receive access to the services or other rights for the time when you will keep your subscription active by renewing it, until terminated by either parties.
The registration of the services will be performed as per the [Documentation] in the FileZilla Pro website (the “Documentation”), unless you purchased on other stores. In the latter case both the registration and the termination procedures may be different and depend on stores' standard terms.
Registration shall occur within 4 weeks since purchase to fully benefit from the entire period of the services. Should you fail to complete the registration within this period of time for a problem originating from our servers, please inform us and we will provide you with an extension to cover the time when you have been unable to complete the registration.
Termination of a subscription-based software application services will be performed sending a termination notice to the email address you have indicated in your subscription or registration form. It is your duty to keep this information updated. Failure to deliver the termination notice shall not impact our right to terminate the subscription. Termination will not affect anyway the subscription for the period you have already paid for.

This includes blocking the port or interfering with Internet port 443 (SSL/TLS) from the application, since the activation process relies on that port to establish due subscription; should you block the port, FileZilla Pro will fail to perform the activation and the advanced features will not be available.
No right is granted herein to any third party to use the [Software], to the Licensee to use the [Software] for any third party, or to the Licensee to utilize the [Software] for any purpose whatsoever not described herein.
