Commercial Use of Mac App Store Version?

Software purchased via the Mac App Store is limited to personal and non-commercial use. Do you have any plans for commercial users or do you plan to abandon this market?

    I know that there is a (PDF link) [url="http://images.apple.com/business/docs/VPP_Business_Guide_US.pdf"]Volume Purchase Program[/url] in iTunes App Store. I am not sure there is anything similar for Mac App Store yet.



    We never were really good with purchase orders or invoices coming from commercial entities, hopefully Apple will do this better.

    Do you care if 1Password as licensed via the Mac App Store is used in a commercial environment?

    Please take a look at our support article on licensing:

    The relevant bit from Apple's [url="http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/us/terms.html"]Terms and Conditions[/url]:



    "If you are a commercial enterprise or educational institution, you may download a Mac App Store Product for use by either ( a ) a single individual on each of the Mac Computer(s) used by that individual that you own or control or ( b ) multiple individuals on a single shared Mac Computer that you own or control. For example, a single employee may use a Mac App Store Product on both the employee’s desktop Mac Computer and laptop Mac Computer, or multiple students may serially use a Mac App Store Product on a single Mac Computer located at a resource center or library. For the sake of clarity, each Mac Computer used serially by multiple users requires a separate license."
