No, the sponsor isn't spyware, and the license also says that.
Spyware is, as Patchou said, far more "agressive" and sends information to servers. Adware also collects info, but this is done by cookies and stuff, in other words local, no valuable info is send to servers.

By saying that I see that you clearly don't know what Gator does or is, or what the Plus! sponsor does. Gator is far worse then the stripped down sponsor that comes with Plus!....
