Revise pipenv check caveat for pyup.io feedback
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Jannis Gebauer of pyup.io let us know that he's definitely fine
with commercial *use* of the `pipenv check` feature, so it's
only commercial redistributors of `pipenv` that may need to
take a closer look at the licensing situation, and perhaps
talk to `pyup.io` directly.

Follow-up to #1651

Commercial users and redistributors of `pipenv` should be aware that the public
`Safety-DB` project backing this feature is licensed as CC-BY-NC-SA. Non-commercial
use of this feature and use by organisations with their own pyup.io commercial license
are thus both clearly fine, but other commercial redistributors and end users may want
to perform their own legal assessment before relying on the capability.
Commercial redistributors of `pipenv` should be aware that the public `Safety-DB`
project backing this feature is licensed as CC-BY-NC-SA by `pyup.io`. While
`pyup.io` have [stated explicitly](https://github.com/pypa/pipenv/issues/1651#issuecomment-372583779)
that commercial *use* of this `pipenv` feature is fine, commercial redistributors may want
to perform their own legal assessment and perhaps chat directly to `pyup.io` about
the specific licensing terms.
