I don't know, what is E3? We just have regular office 365 for email. Do we have to have the one that includes software?

You will have to find out what type of Office 365 licencing you have, there is Business and Enterprise licencing available amongst other options. Data loss prevention is only available with the Enterprise E3 or E5 licence. Every user that comes under a DLP policy will also need E3/E5 licencing from what I gather. I think the documentation could be clearer in this regards!
