Unless POV-Ray is just an optional inclosure to your product (see 
distribution license 4.1.d.i-ii) you need to obtain a written permission 
by the POV-Team.  You can use the email address given in the license 
text to make such an inquiry.

The purpose of these regulation is to ensure the users of such a product 
are prominently made aware that POV-Ray is included with the product, 
provides parts of its functionality and is available for free.
