Do I need a license to ship PineForge Codegen's C++ in a product or hosted service?

Plans and prices that apply

Prices in US dollars, plus tax where it applies, for 12 months. Self-serve plans renew automatically each year unless you cancel; plans bought by quote, invoice or purchase order, and the pilot, do not renew automatically.

• Above this: more products or more than 50,000 monthly active end users (a quote); own trading capital above $10M needs a Team plan as well, for the band that holds it.
