# We are an Non-Profit-Organization, do you have a special discount?

We support the community with our free extensions.

Due to the fact that we cannot verify if you really belong to legally registered Non-Profit-Organization, we cannot award special discounts.

We have been already contacted by several users claiming to belong to a Non-Profit-Organization, that in a second stage purchased extensions for commercial usage.

Finally, our software is provided with full source code and we need to protect ourselves from fraudulent users who look for the extension with the sole intent of distributing unauthorized copies.

# We are an Non-Profit-Organization and we can't buy the extension without test, send us the source code

Our customers purchase subscriptions to have access to the extension. If we begin to distribute the extension for free, then it is not fair to our customers and it ends our business life cycle.

Our software is provided with full source code and we need to protect ourselves from fraudulent users who look for the extension with the sole intent of distributing unauthorized copies.

Finally, we cannot verify if you really work for a registered Non-Profit-Organization.

Your subscription supports our work, ensuring that we can continue developing products and offering support services.
