Does that mean I can’t use them for telecommuting (working from home)?

You may use Norton 360…for telecommuting…working from home.
Not for commercial use means - not using Norton property to make money.
Commercial use is a legal term that defines the use of certain merchandise, tools or intellectual property for financial gain.

You’re not remediating malware using Norton 360 for financial gain.
You’re not using Norton 360 to advance your commercial or economic interests, such as by inducing another person to buy, rent, lease, join, subscribe to, provide, or exchange products, goods, property, information, or services, or enabling or effecting, directly or indirectly, a commercial transaction.
Your use of Norton 360 does not cause a commercial transaction.

Thanks so much for your very helpful, thorough response bjm!

I purchased Norton 360 Premium, which includes 10 licenses, and have 2 related questions:

#1. Is it OK for my wife (living at the same address, in the same household) to use 1 or more of the 10 licenses?

#2. Is it OK for me to use licenses for mobile devices provided for me by my employer (and used only by me)?

1. Yes, your subscription with 10 seats may be used by anyone…up to the number of available seats.
2. Yes, okay regarding Norton…does your employer know/have comment?.

Are the devises used for telecommunication…owned by you or by your employer?
Seems like if the machines were owned by your employer. You’d be obligated to their rules.

Thanks, bjm.

Re: #2: Some devices are owned by my employer. But they don’t have SIM cards, so any communication is via the Internet. I discussed it with my employer, and they’re fine with it.
