Hello @N92

Splunk sells its license either as perpetual or term license. So don't need to worry about license usage.
As per docs, if you need support after one year of perpetual license then, you need to purchase an annual support renewal.

these two docs can help you out better:

Then what is the meaning of determining license limitation?

Also in same document they mention below line.
Splunk offers both Perpetual and Term Licenses for Splunk Enterprise. A Perpetual License is a one-time license fee that grants you an indefinite right to use the software for as long as you comply with all terms of the license agreement.

There are some terms and conditions are pointed out with every license. Not sure about full terms and condition.
