I believe this is the part that @EKAloji was referring to [coinpaprika also has those terms]:

  • 4.1 Your use of CoinGecko’s API is limited by the following:-
    ~Snipped~
    4.1.7.3 use any Data, information or other content from any of our Property in any advertisements or for targeting advertisements, in any of your Products or part thereof;

I think this is not a big deal... You can't advertise Coingecko API data as yours, as far as I understand this text.

10,000 request per month is nearly 14 requests per hour, which is about 1 request each 4 minutes. It is good enough for most commercial services.

No, it does not allow data sharing.

I couldn't find anything related to "not allow data sharing". What line is bothering you? can you be more specific?

Found a couple more that might come in handy:

They clearly state that you can use it in your application and even charge for your application that uses their data.

Just add "powered by coingecko"

I also found this one. Which is free only for non-commercial use. Coingecko will fit your needs better:

Is there a service where I can get crypto currency data (price, market cap, 24-hour exchange etc.) free of charge and publish it with a 3rd party? All the api distributors I've found are damned forbidding sharing data publicly.

This is the best free api.
