A quick definition of BSD license:
The BSD license is a type of open-source license that allows people to use and modify the source code of software, even for commercial purposes, as long as they don't use the names of the original creators to promote their products without permission. It's like getting permission to do something that would normally be illegal, but with some rules to follow.A more thorough explanation:
The BSD license is a type of open-source license that allows users to incorporate the source code into proprietary products as long as they don't use the names of the original creator or contributors to endorse or promote the products without permission.
For example, if a company uses code under the BSD license to create a new software product, they can sell that product without having to make it open-source. However, they cannot use the names of the original creators or contributors to promote the product without permission.
