BME688 Software License terms (private users excluded?)

The license terms (December 2024) mention:

The Software is developed for business Users only. It may not be used by private customers.

This seems to be the case for:

  • License Terms and Conditions for the use of Bosch Sensortec’s BME688 Software (here BME AI-Studio)

  • License Terms and Conditions for the use of Bosch Sensortec’s BME AI-Studio Mobile App

  • License Terms and Conditions for the use of Bosch Sensortec’s BME680/BME688/BME690 Software (here BSEC)

as well as the BME688 Development Kit Software licensing terms.

Are private hobbyists not allowed to use the sensor and software? Could you please confirm and clarify why that is the case?
