If you installed the 30-day trial, then at the end of the trial it will prompt you to purchase. If you decline then it will continue to work as the Free version.

When the trial ends it reverts to the free version 8. If you download the free version today it will be version 7 as the free V8 has not been officially released yet. The free version has most features that a home user would need. Downloads for all versions are here Macrium Software | Reflect Free Edition. You need to scroll down the page to see the free home version.
