Doesn't this fail DFSG#6 ?
What if I want to use the data for non-scientific purposes (for
instance, I could desire to use the data within a work of art, for
aesthetic purposes)?

Hi,

given that it comes from an email conversation and not a proper license, it is
hard to decide if it has to be taken as a disclaimer or as a restriction.

So if it is a serious concern, it means that a more formal clarification is
needed.

Cheers,
