Activation Ensures Valid Licenses
Pervasive uses product activation to ensure you have received a valid copy of the software. Once activation is complete, most users will never have to activate their software again.
Simple and Quick
Product activation is a simple and straightforward process. In most cases, the only information required is a Product Activation key provided with your software media or in the email with your download link.
Product activation over the Internet is fast and easy. All you need to do is install the product, enter the key and click "Activate".
Activation can also be completed by contacting Pervasive directly. If you need help, please email or telephone Pervasive, and a Customer Interaction Representative will assist you.
Data Collection
During installation and activation, Pervasive collects software and system information required to validate the product license. Data is collected about Pervasive products along with information about your hardware, network and OS to uniquely associate the computer with your Pervasive licenses. Data is also collected during uninstalls, product updates and any license management. No personal identity information is collected.
