Question

Shared devices privacy

Hi,

With my Adobe plan I can install the apps on up to two devices, so I'm going to let a friend use the apps on their PC as well. However I'm wondering if there are any privacy issues I should be concerned with. For instance, when I open Photoshop or Premiere Pro I see a list of my recently opened projects - would my friend on my Adobe plan see those same recent documents on their PC? Or is that only if the documents are saved on the cloud?

Thanks

Cloud License allows 2 activations at a time http://www.adobe.com/legal/licenses-terms.html
-you may use on ONE computer at a time, and you may NOT share your subscription

 

I don't know if this WILL happen, but now that you have stated you are going to break the license terms an employee who reads here COULD report you and have your subscription terminated

That is a violation of the EULA.

Your friend needs to obtain their own license.

what you're proposing (the sharing of your individual scription) is a violation of your terms of service from adobe (ie, it's illegal), not to say anything about privacy concerns.

Hi Edwin,

 

Thank you for writing to us. As you mentioned you want to let your friend use Adobe Applications, you have to share your Adobe ID details for him to log in as he has no subscription. As he has to use your Adobe ID details, is a violation of your terms of service from adobe (ie, it's illegal), because he will be able to view all the files you have stored, and shared through your account.

 

I hope this answers your question. Please let us know if this helps.

 

Regards,

Neelam
