My interpretation of that is that you can only do donations if you'e a 501c3, but that anyone can do digital or downloadable products. I would say that what Ze is doing, essentially online advertising, seems to be okay by that text.
But maybe I'm just reading it wrong.

Keep the comments coming. I'd love to hear what everyone thinks of this move by Checkout in light of Paypal, etc.
Big fan of BlogHUD, btw. Great platform and awesome tool for SecondLife!
If Ze re-words the promotion page to make is painfully clear that he's selling something, then contacts Google, I bet they'd re-instate his account.
Most likely this was caused by some intern/new hire who was tasked with auditing sites using Checkout to verify that they're in compliance and, being disgruntled at having such a craptastic assignment while working for the oh-so-great Goog, they made some rash decisions.
