FAQ

If you're a business that handles client data or has servers, then you need more than what our free consumer antivirus offers. Avast Business solutions offer advanced security, privacy, and productivity features to give your employees total digital privacy, security, and unparalleled productivity. They also come with an online management platform to provide real-time visibility of threats, comprehensive reporting, and remote management capabilities from a single platform.

Avast free consumer antivirus, Avast One, and Premium Security are intended for private, personal, and non-commercial use only. If you would like to use Avast in a business, commercial, non-profit, or government organization, we recommend trying Avast Business solutions.

For more information, please review our Avast End-User License Agreement (EULA).

All of our products include our next-generation antivirus for businesses designed to prevent, search for, detect, and remove malware and other malicious software (worms, trojans, adware, spyware, and more). We protect millions of businesses worldwide by using the industry’s best prevention, detection, blocking capabilities, machine learning, advanced heuristics, advanced anti-exploit, and other Avast proprietary techniques.

To protect users, Avast detects and immediately reports any suspicious files or behavior. This state-of-the-art infrastructure and access to an immense amount of security data gathered from millions of devices around the globe gives us one of the largest, most advanced threat detection networks in the world.

As your business and security needs grow, the Avast Business Hub allows you to add other services such as Patch Management and Cloud Backup that can all be managed from one platform.

No, Avast Essential Business Security is only available with our online management platform, the Avast Business Hub.

Tärkeää tietoa tilauksestasi

Mikä on tilaus?

Tilaus on Avastin sitoumus sinulle, asiakkaallemme, että työskentelemme jatkuvasti pitääksemme sinut virtuaalisesti suojattuna ja yhteydessä ja laitteesi optimoituna vastineeksi vuosimaksusta, jonka laskutamme pankkikortiltasi tai PayPal-tililtäsi. Tilausmaksun ansiosta Avast kykenee tarjoamaan sinulle valitsemasi palvelun siihen saakka, että perut tilauksesi. Jos tilauksesi on päättynyt, voimme auttaa sinua täällä.

Valittu maksettava ajanjakso mitataan kuukausina, ja sen pituus voi olla yksi kuukausi, yksi vuosi tai useita vuosia valitun Avast-palvelutilauksen mukaan. Valitun maksetun tilausjakson loputtua Avast veloittaa automaattisesti käyttäen tallennettuja maksutietoja, jotta palveluun ei tule katkoksia.

Automaattisen uusimisen ja hinnoittelun ehdot

Seuraava tilausjakso veloitetaan kulloinkin voimassa olevaan hintaan. Maksut veloitetaan käyttäen tallennettuja maksutietoja enintään 35 päivää ennen Avast-tilausjakson loppua. Maksut saattavat muuttua. Vuositilauksissa muistutamme enintään 65 päivää ennen tilausjakson loppua sinua vuosipäivästä sekä tilausmaksusta, joka laskutetaan seuraavasta tilausjaksosta.

Avast-tuotteet myydään jatkuvina tilauksina, mikä tarkoittaa sinulle keskeytymätöntä suojaa koko tilauksesi ajan. Tilauksesi jatkuu siis keskeytyksettä, ellet manuaalisesti peruuta sitä ennen seuraavaa laskutuspäivää tai ellei maksu tallennetuilla maksutiedoilla epäonnistu. Noudatamme jatkuvan tilauksen käytäntöä, jottei palveluusi tule katkoja ja jotta voit jatkaa palvelumme hyödyntämistä.

Avast tarjoaa monia erilaisia palveluita, joita voit tilata vuositilauksena. Tarjoamme usein alennuksen tilauksen ensimmäisestä vuodesta, jotta pääset helpommin mukaan ja voit nauttia markkinoiden johtavista palveluista. Ensimmäinen maksujaksosi on siis seuraavia jaksoja halvempi. Teemme tämän hintaeron selväksi, kun valitset palvelutilaustasi. Ennen tilausjaksosi päättymistä lähetämme sinulle laskutusmuistutuksen seuraavasta maksujaksosta.

Tilausten päivitykset, peruutukset ja hyvitykset

Avast laskuttaa käyttäen vain tallennettuja maksutietoja, eikä Avastilla ole toista tapaa veloittaa sinua jatkuvasta tilauksestasi. Tämä tarkoittaa sitä, että sinun vastuullasi on sallia maksutapasi tallennus ensimmäisen oston yhteydessä sekä pitää se ajan tasalla, jotta palvelusi ja suhteesi meihin jatkuisi keskeytyksettä tilausjakson ajan. Voit peruuttaa tilauksesi Avast-tilillä, joka on liitetty tilauksen oston yhteydessä antamaasi sähköpostiosoitteeseen. Lisätietoja ja ohjeita tähän saat täältä.

Voit pyytää hyvitystä ottamalla yhteyttä Avastin asiakastukeen täältä 30 päivän kuluessa tilaamisesta tai tilausjaksosi päättymisestä. Lisätietoja tilauksista ja uusimisesta voit lukea täältä.

Asiakkaan vastuut

Suhtaudumme sinulle antamaamme sitoumukseen vakavasti, mutta luotamme myös siihen, että sinä lataat, asennat ja säännöllisesti päivität ohjelmistomme. Tämä on tärkeää, sillä teemme parannuksia ja laajennuksia tilaamaasi palveluun ja haluamme, että voit jatkossakin nauttia uurastuksestamme. Nämä jatkuvat parannukset ja laajennukset noudattavat Avastin loppukäyttäjän lisenssisopimusta, jonka voit lukea täältä.
