Use of Unlock Document License

Which standards can I unlock and move?

The Unlock Document License allows you to unlock and move the standards you are permitted to open.

In which situations should I unlock and move my standard?

Please note that you must unlock and move your standard before:

 

  • installing new hardware on your PC;
  • reinstalling, updating or upgrading your operating system;
  • changing your PC;

otherwise you may not be able to open the standard subsequently.  

Am I allowed to transfer the standard to others?

Yes. However, please be aware that when you transfer a standard to another user, you also transfer all rights to the standard.

I have transferred my standard to another user – how is my standard transferred back to me?

If you have unlocked and transferred a standard to another user, you have also transferred your rights to the standard. This means that the other user will have to unlock the standard and then transfer it back to you.

Please note that once you have transferred a standard, you no longer have any claim to it.
