Yes, I'm also pretty sure that you can just completely ignore the
license since you're only using the data within your own organization.
The licence only kicks in when you're doing re-distribution to third
parties.

(See e.g. Google's use of Linux, they don't re-distribute their
changes, and don't have to)
