(Disclaimer: I speak for nobody, except possibly myself on a good day.)
The following excerpt from the 1.2.28 "COPYING" file (which always
provides the licence terms) seems to set that question to rest:
3. NON-COMMERCIAL USE LICENSE
Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein and provided that
you are a student, faculty member, researcher, employee or
administrator at university, other accredited non-profit educational
or university-affiliated research institution, or charitable
organization, SSH hereby grants to You, an end user, a personal,
non-transferable, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable license to install
and use the Software, free of charge, for non-commercial or charitable
purposes only.
Further, subject to the terms and conditions contained herein and
provided that your are an individual, SSH hereby grants to You, an end
user, a personal, non-transferable, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable
license to install and use the Software for recreational and hobby
purposes only.
I would strongly urge reading the entire file, though.
