Is OpenStack a 501c3?

In order to disable ads on your free CSE, you site must belong to an organization recognized as exempt from taxation under section 501(c)(3) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code.

Or do we pay for google cse? In which case it seems the directions are actually to:

Disable ads on Google Site Search

Follow these steps to disable ads on a paid or non-profit search engine.

* On the Control Panel, on the left-hand menu, click Make money.
* If your Google Site Search engine already has an AdSense ID associated with it, this will be displayed on the Make Money page. To disable ads, click Undo this association.
