The subscription determines your Kaspersky Security Cloud usage settings (subscription expiration date and the number of protected devices). The subscription is related to the unique code that you have for activating your copy of Kaspersky Security Cloud.

There are three packages:

Kaspersky Security Cloud – Free. This package gives you the right to use the basic set of protection functions for free. You can install and simultaneously use the application on three devices connected to the same My Kaspersky account. For details about the protection you get under the Free package, refer to Kaspersky Security Cloud package comparison. Free package subscription is renewed automatically. You do not have to perform any actions.

  • Kaspersky Security Cloud – Personal. This package gives you the right to use all functions except Kaspersky Safe Kids. This package is meant to be use by a single person and will not let you share the application with your friends and family.
  • Kaspersky Security Cloud – Family. This package gives you the right to unlimited use of all application functions, including child protection using the Kaspersky Safe Kids application. If you purchased the Family package subscription, you can share application usage rights with people close to you (friends, family, and even colleagues).

The Personal and Family packages possess auto-renewal functions. If you activate the auto-renewal function on one of our partners' websites or at Kaspersky's website, at the expiration of your subscription it will automatically renew without your involvement. Free package subscription is renewed automatically. You do not have to perform any actions.

If you do not turn on the auto-renew function or for some reason the application was unable to perform auto-renewal of your subscription (your bank card has expired or was refused), at the end of your subscription to the Personal or Family package, the application may switch over to the Free package if your package supports such switching. In this event, to continue to use the application under the Personal or Family package, you will need to manually renew your subscription at the Kaspersky website or at one of our partners' websites.

Personal and Family package subscriptions include the right to use the following services:

  • The right to use the application on one or several devices

    The number of devices on which you may use the application is specified in the End User License Agreement.

  • Assistance from Kaspersky Technical Support
  • Obtaining other services available from Kaspersky or its partners during the term of the subscription.

Before purchasing a subscription, you can get a free trial version of Kaspersky Security Cloud. The trial version of Kaspersky Security Cloud remains functional during a short evaluation period. After the trial period for Kaspersky Security Cloud, you must purchase a subscription to keep using the program.
