To obtain a 30 day trial license all you need to do is install CSV Improved 1.5 and start using it. When you start using CSV Improved 1.5 it will connect with the license server and add your domain name to the system and grant a 30 day license.
When there are only 10 days left of your license, you will receive a notification of the amount of days you have left on your license. After 30 days you will get a message saying that your license has expired. Once you buy a license the expiration date will be updated by 1, 2 or 3 years depending on the license you buy from the day of purchase.

CSV Improved checks once a day if your license is still valid, provided you use CSV Improved. When the check is performed, only your domain name is send to the license server to check if your domain name has a valid license.
