Using your licence and managing your account. These are the service questions from Help & FAQs. For help with an individual setting, use the illustrated menu topics.

## 1. Can I buy one license and share it with the rest of the office?

No. We use some cool A.I. to detect when people are sharing an unlock to create maps. We’ve created a part of the site where you can share your maps with as many people as you like and they don’t need an unlock.

## 2. My manager bought it but expects me to design all the maps, is that O.K?

## 3. Can I change the registered email from my old company to my new one?

If you email us from your old company email address and request the change then yes. We can’t do it if you don’t have access to the old email address.
