I cannot find a statement on the site but I can find a statement that it is a non-profit organisation. Maybe someone could confirm. Some of these rightsholders are for-profit companies and some are for-profit authors but some of the publishers are not-for-profit and I bet a lot of the rights holding authors do not make a profit but that may not be deliberate. I am not aware of the definition of a for-profit organisation in US law. I do know that many librarians consider that anyone who sells them anything is commercial.
