I wonder if you could call the church support number for ward and stake clerks and ask them. Even if they can't answer your question maybe they can get you in touch with the right people.
A buddy of mine and I wrote a search engine for the church magazines and we asked permission from the church to publish our software. Our experience was very good in talking with the church. Our question was more of an intellectual property issue so we sent an email to an email address on the church website. The email was forwarded onto the right people and we ended up eventually talking to someone who could answer our question. While I'm speaking of that, we will more than likely open source our app and I'll send a link to this list. We've got some work to do before it's ready for the public though, and I've got to many things on my plate at this point in time to finish it.

Hey Mary,
It is good to hear from you again... I hope things are going well.
Yes, it sounds like I would need to ask the Church directly. I was
hoping that someone a little closer to SLC would have a contact or
someone that works at the Church office was listening on this list. If
someone has a contact to the right person (other than the general
support email address) to ask please send me the contact info.
Best Regards,
