PDIs are intended for you to use to learn, explore, and experiment with the <span class="ph">Now Platform®</span>. PDIs are not intended to be used for business or production purposes. Using a PDI for business or production is a violation of the <span class="ph">ServiceNow®</span> Developer Program Agreement. With a PDI, you receive admin-level access to all of the features the <span class="ph">Now Platform®</span> has to offer. Use your PDI on a continuous basis and it is yours forever.</p> </div> </body></html></div>
