5. During activation, Bitdefender offers me complete protection. Do I need to provide my account details?
   No! You purchased an activation code valid for 12 or 18 months. After this period, you can decide whether you were satisfied with the product and want to continue using it.
   If you do not wish to subscribe to a plan that automatically charges your account on a regular basis, you can simply purchase a new activation code and use Bitdefender according to the validity of that code.
   If you do not want to sign up for the subscription offer presented by Bitdefender, you can decline it.
   Just scroll to the bottom of the offer window and click “Later”.
