Terms Applicable to DNSP:

 

Term Definition
DNSP Contracted Seats The number of seats that an end user is licensed to use or deploy (measured by number of Endpoints), including to a Site, or that a channel partner is licensed to distribute, each for the specified subscription term.  DNSP Contracted Seats are not necessarily individual users.
DNSP Monthly Excess Usage Fee The fee, calculated on a per-month, per-Endpoint basis, owed to Webroot for each Endpoint used, deployed or distributed in excess of the DNSP Contracted Seats. 
Quantity For a DNSP contract, Quantity refers to the number of DNSP Contracted Seats.


For purposes of DNSP, “Endpoints” are measured as follows: (a) Webroot will validate if the DNSP agent software is installed, and if it is, Webroot will identify whether that agent was (i) activated in Webroot’s system and not deactivated as of the last day of the prior billing period or (ii) activated in Webroot’s system during the then-current billing period (with each active agent being an “Endpoint”); and (b) if the DNSP agent software is not installed, Webroot will identify all DNS requests or queries via external IP address (each, a “Request”) from any End User and divide such Requests by 30 to get the 30 day average for number of Requests. The 30 day average is further divided by the average number of Requests per day per End User (as measured and defined by Webroot), with the resulting number constituting the number of DNSP Endpoints for such End User. If the calculation in (b) above results in a fractional number, Webroot will round up in calculating the number of DNSP Endpoints for the applicable End User.
