| 7 | +Summary |
| 8 | +======= |
| 9 | + |
| 10 | +This license allows the licensee to use Bedrock and its software modules |
| 11 | +for non-commercial purposes such as self-study, research, personal |
| 12 | +projects, or for evaluation purposes. If the licensee uses Bedrock |
| 13 | +directly or indirectly to generate revenue, or to provide products or |
| 14 | +services to more than 500 people (users), the licensee must immediately |
| 15 | +obtain a non-profit or commercial license. |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +Examples |
| 18 | +======== |
| 19 | + |
| 20 | +These are examples of cases that are allowed by this license: |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | +* The licensee is an individual that creates Bedrock-dependent software for |
| 23 | + personal use only. |
| 24 | +* The licensee is an individual or group of students/researchers that uses |
| 25 | + Bedrock to experiment with an idea for a non-commercial project. |
| 26 | +* The licensee is a startup company that prototypes a Bedrock-dependent |
| 27 | + product before they have cash flow and will be testing the prototype |
| 28 | + software with less than 500 users. The service will not generate revenue |
| 29 | + of any kind. |
| 30 | +* The licensee is a for-profit organization that creates a product or |
| 31 | + service that is used by less than 500 users and is built with or |
| 32 | + integrates with Bedrock. The service must be exclusively provided for free |
| 33 | + and no parent, subsidiary, agent, or affiliate organization may profit |
