Again, it does not factor in at all. Non-profit use is not an affirmative defense against a charge of copyright infringement. For-profit use is more likely to be infringing, but whether or not a given use is for profit or not has no bearing on whether or not a given action is infringing. In other words, there is a correlation between for-profit use and a higher likelihood of copyright infringement, but the relationship is not causal.
