"Business Use" means any use of the Software or a Derivative Work by or on behalf of a legal entity (including but not limited to a corporation, LLC, partnership, sole proprietorship, or equivalent) in the course of that entity's business operations, regardless of whether the specific use directly generates revenue.

COMMERCIAL USE — ATTRIBUTION REQUIRED Any Commercial Use of the Software or a Derivative Work is permitted only if the Attribution requirements set forth in Section 4 are fully satisfied. If such use also constitutes Business Use as defined in Section 1, the requirements of Section 5 apply in addition to (and not instead of) the requirements of this Section and Section 4. 4. ATTRIBUTION REQUIREMENTS Any person or entity engaged in Commercial Use of the Software or a Derivative Work must provide Attribution that includes ALL of the following: (a) the text "Powered by Alucard" or "Built with Alucard"; (b) a clickable hyperlink to https://github.com/evilsocket/alucard (where technically feasible; if not feasible, the full URL must be displayed as plain text); (c) the text "Created by Simone Margaritelli".
