We are creating a web app utilizing Google Speech2Text (https://www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/demos/speech.html).
We know that we should be aware of the acceptable use policy, and also plan on monetizing the app at some point, so we are worried that using this W3C/Google technology we will be relinquishing some rights to our own software. Or maybe we will be forced to make it open source or similar.
So my question is: What implicit usage rules are typical in free software, especially software that is collaborated on between 2 or more groups/companies. For example, I wasn't able to find a "Google & W3C Terms and Conditions for Speech Technology" doc. I just don't fully understand what we are agreeing to using this.

In this case it also makes a difference whether you are using Speech2Text as API, or that you are using the code behind the Speech2Text API. If you are using the API the regular terms and conditions apply. Part of that says:
"You may use our Services only as permitted by law, including applicable export and re-export control laws and regulations. We may suspend or stop providing our Services to you if you do not comply with our terms or policies or if we are investigating suspected misconduct.
Using our Services does not give you ownership of any intellectual property rights in our Services or the content you access. You may not use content from our Services unless you obtain permission from its owner or are otherwise permitted by law. "
This means that Google will be able to influence the availability of your web app if they suspect it is breaching their policies. This is something you should really let some professional dive into if you want to monetize your app.
If you are using the code behind the Speech2Text, Mary already sketched the landscape.
Hope this helps.
