### Note: This is a community fork that took place after the release of the Sandboxie source code and not the official continuation of the previous development (see the [project history](./README.md#-project-history) and [#2926](https://github.com/sandboxie-plus/Sandboxie/issues/2926)).
A supporter certificate is like a license key and enables the use of new supporter exclusive features, like [Privacy Mode](https://sandboxie-plus.com/privacy-mode/) or [Application Compartment](https://sandboxie-plus.com/compartment-mode/) sandboxes. See the [Feature Comparison](https://github.com/sandboxie-plus/sandboxie-docs/blob/main/docs/Content/FeatureComparison.md) for more details and certificate options. <br>
Patreon certificates are valid for as long as the subscription is active and unlock all features. Patreons who have ended their subscription are entitled to a residual certificate corresponding to the total amount of their support. See also [how to renew a Patreon supporter certificate](https://github.com/sandboxie-plus/Sandboxie/issues/2144).
Contributor certificates do not expire (regardless of how many PCs you own) and are available to all people who open meaningful [pull requests](https://docs.github.com/articles/creating-a-pull-request) or provide continued support to the [Sandboxie-docs](https://github.com/sandboxie-plus/sandboxie-docs) / [Sandboxie](https://github.com/sandboxie-plus/Sandboxie) repositories.
