Only one site license is needed if the GeoIP data resides on your servers, and one of the following two conditions are met: 1) The client must not have any direct or indirect access to the data. For example, the IP addresses of the client’s visitors should be captured through something like Javascript. If the IPs are obtained via log files, the clients must not have the ability to modify the log files. OR 2) GeoIP data is provided in aggregate, where the IP address is not presented with the associated GeoIP data. Please see the sample log report examples below: a) 3 visits from 24.24.24.24 Ithaca, New York, US (Not allowed, unless condition 1 is meet.) 2 visits from 24.24.23.23 Chitengo, New York, US (Not allowed, unless condition 1 is meet.
