The licences are available on the web site and you really should have yor lawyers look at them and give you professional advise.

The GPL2+ is probably the relevant one for your purposes and essentially require you to provide the source for the parts of R that you distribute.

However, the R licencing is a mess with core packages not on a GPL licence. We looked into it and it is a nightmare and I don't even think the UK CRAN mirrors are strictly speaking legal. So look carefully at what you use and get advice from somewhere other than a mailing list.

happy to discuss the UK side of things offline if you want, but I never looked at other jurisdictions.
