I have a few (semi-)hypothetical scenarios where I’m not sure which license would be appropriate, so I’d like to ask for some clarification. For instance, if you’re developing a website for a non-profit organization, like a human rights NGO, it’s not a personal website, but definitely not commercia…

This question is probably best answered by @bastianallgeier . From my point of view, your second example is certainly commercial. The purpose of the website is to sell the real estate and thus to make money. It’s basically the same as a photographer presenting photographs in order to gain new custo…

Yeah, the real estate example makes sense. Thanks for your reply!

I’ve got the same problem. I am working on a Podcast. The site will use Kirby CMS. I would like to add the possibilty to support the podcast via patreon or (in my wildest dreams :wink: ) finding a sponsor in the future. What license will I need? I am not sure if that’s a commercial usage.

I agree it needs to be more explicit, as many questions about licenses have been asked on this forum, but imho when you ask yourself which license you need, then you most probably need a pro one.

Hobby / non-professional activity, personal site or blog, family and friends. Seems like a good definition to me.

This interpretation doesn’t match some official statements, though: [image] Kirby (getkirby) @MarcelKlammer ja, eine personal license reicht in dem fall völlig 9:56 AM - 23 Feb 2015

That’s interesting, but as I said above, we can only guess what we think is reasonable as long as there is no official clarification with examples of websites that require a personal vs. pro licenses.

What about bulk buying? Where are the price list if i want to buy more than 10 licences? Because i want it… sooner or later. :smile: Another question, is a license linked to a specific domain? Or i can re-use a license i used for a website i decided to delete?

Which license is for which purpose?
