Hello and big thanks for your amazing work!

To clarify about the license: is it permitted to use the algorithm to provide free dunedinPace results to people who bring their own data?

If I am not missing anything the repository currently seems to have a contradiction between GNU GPL license (the LICENSE file in the repository), and the notice at the beginning of the README file.

Hi Dan,

The repository has a LICENSE file, which holds GNU General Public License v3. As a result this license is applied to the current repository and is, for example, also listed under the "About" section on the right side bar.

GNU GPL license is a license saying that every user has a right to do whatever he or she wants with the source code, with the main requirement being that all modifications of the source code also adhere to GNU GPL license. By contrast the statement in the README says that commercial users cannot use the clock without permission from the licensee.

Hence a contradiction. I am not a lawyer and this is not my expertise, but seems like currently the license and the statement disagree with each other. In short - you might want to modify/change the LICENSE file.
