Hi! In the FAQ, https://developers.google.com/maps/faq#tos_commercial , the following is stated: "If you charge people to place information on your map (e.g. to list their homes for sale), but you display this information using the Google Maps API on a free part of your site, you'll also meet the Google Maps API Terms of Service"
I wonder how this can be correct when the Google Maps Terms of Service specify the following, https://developers.google.com/maps/terms#section_9_1_1 : "Your Maps API Implementation must be generally accessible to users without charge and must not require a fee-based subscription or other fee-based restricted access." Why wouldn't a Business License be required in the FAQ example above? My reasoning: If you charge people to place information on your map, wouldn't that imply that these people would be in contact with the Google Maps API within the admin solution that sets up the home sale? If so, doesn't this mean that you are offering a fee-based restricted access, since you can't add a home for sale unless you pay? Due to this I have a problem seeing how the FAQ example is in compliance with the Google Maps Terms of Service stated above . . . . Thanks for any clarification about this issue.
