The CKEditor for Drupal license covers both your editor usage and includes a CKFinder license. Until you enter your licensing data, CKFinder will run in the demonstration mode.

Each CKEditor for Drupal license is valid for a particular website (Website license) or all websites owned or produced by you (Corporate Websites license). Once you choose a suitable license type and conclude your purchase, a license name and key will be sent to you by e-mail.

Go to the Administration panel > Configuration > Content Authoring > CKEditor > Global settings section and edit the CKEditor Global Profile. The CKEditor Global Profile page that will open and contains a reminder that the CKEditor for Drupal module runs in an unlicensed mode.
