Note this from the FAQ: Can I also use this license for projects that aren't open source, or to host private projects? <https://about.gitlab.com/solutions/open-source/join/#requirements> No. You may use the GitLab license you receive from the GitLab for Open Source Program only for the publicly visible open source projects for which it was approved. In some cases, we allow program members to host a small number of private projects if those projects contain sensitive data. Please email us at `opensou...@gitlab.com` to ask about your case. You must obtain written permission from us in order to use the license outside of program requirements.
