They have the Foundation that support their work financially
See this page: https://freebsdfoundation.org/our-donors/donors/
Most of the admins work on SBo on our free time and even Andrew Clemons 
used his own infractructure for the CI.

Well, it's a third party since it's not endorsed.
It was originally made by other people outside of SBo admins (Chess, 
Mauro, and slakmagik), i just continued to maintain it since i used it 
and found it useful and it worked for me.
