Trying to Understand the License Restrictions
I understand that I can use Campaign Cartographer 3:
- On 3 computers, at the same location, not running at the same time, for non-commercial use, or
- On 1 computer, for commercial use
I'm not sure what that means, though.
Is the commercial use restriction supposed to apply to a single user, who may want to use some of their maps in books and games or only to a business?
If I try Campaign Cartographer 3, and later uninstall it, switch to a new computer, and install Campaign Cartographer 3 on the new computer, does that count as using it on 1 computer, or 2 computers?
Yes, a lot of people have asked the same questions, but the usual answer is that they can install it on 3 computers... without explaining how they're counting 3 computers, or how that applies if you're limited to 1 computer.

Commercial use means as soon as you are starting to earn money with the maps you create. So if you start selling rpg adventures with your maps in them, yes that would be commercial use and you'd be limited to one install. But if you are concerned about your commercial setup/use, just send us an email as Sue suggests, and I'm sure we can come to an arrangement.
The number of installs refers to the concurrent use of CC3+ on different computers. Removing and reinstalling CC3+ never counts as a one of those uses. You could for example, have CC3+ on your own PC, your wife's and the laptop that you use for travel and/or work. How many times you've had it installed on previous computers does not factor into this at all.
