And that is where the problem is, when I bought it (and many others) there was no mention that I was buying only the current "version".
You actually are by having renewal popups on my screen when ever I open it, Professional version should not have renewal popups.
Mine was bought through your site, and I always have thought it was "lifetime" license because there was no mention otherwise on the Piriform websites.
- If there was a mention of yearly subscription on any part of your site I would not have bought it.
- If there was any mention of buying a specific "Version" series I would have not bought it.
See here it mentions "The world’s most popular PC cleaning and optimization solution! Full feature set, software updates and priority support. Instant online delivery!", no mention of a specific version set, or expiry after one year. https://web.archive.org/web/20140703101544/https://secure.piriform.com/502/uurl-tmnenxd8ra
No mention on payment form:

No mention here either... only "Automatic Updating - Software updates!" https://web.archive.org/web/20140703114020/http://www.piriform.com/CCLEANER/download
No mention in features:

There was plenty of opportunity to mention on piriform that buying was version related and buying required renewal after one year (subscription).
But nope, no where at all!
