One of the most basic restrictions you'll see with content covered by a Creative Commons license is the noncommercial clause.

This is a legal definition, so it is simple enough to find out exactly what that means. The definition of commercial use is broad, covering more than just obvious 'profit-making' uses. In practice, the term is equivalent to income-generating use of any kind, whether direct or indirect.

If you use the content for general research, even if not for any specific purpose, and you or your organization generates income, that counts as commercial use. Same goes for using this content for pro-bono work (from the Latin pro bono publico, meaning 'for the public good', or working for free). If it also enhances your reputation or leads to income-generating work in any way whatsoever you would be breaking the license('s). Basically, if there's as much as a sniff of commercial interest in what you're doing with this content then it counts as commercial use. There's also no such thing as fair use in commercial contexts any more.
