Does the USB export license allow usage on an desktop at workplace?

I read through the Common purchasing, upgrading and licensing questions

And found this:

  • Can I use the free laptop licence at work?
    The answer to this is generally no. Not only is the free licence specifically designated for a "personal" laptop (i.e. one that you own), but the licence terms don't allow the one licence to be used at home and work as well. The one exception to this would be if you take your own laptop in to work every day.
  • Can I use a dual licence at home and work?
    As above, the answer to this is generally no. A multiple install licence is only intended for use at the one physical location. So if you have two computers at home, a dual licence lets you install and use Opus on both, but you would need a separate licence to also install it on your work PC.

Does this also apply to the USB export license?

If so, could GPsoft consider adding a purchase option to the USB export license to assign one USB export to be designated as an workplace license at extra cost. The benefit would be that the user has a valid USB license to be used outside the home location at the work location-desktop and GPsoft also get's a purchase from it. (or maybe in some other form, this is just a suggestion).

You can use the USB licence anywhere, including at work.
