Hi @DataBeli ,

Yes, we can 🙂 I've used my personal gmail account and I hadn't encounter any issues.

I know technically we can, but I am doubtful if databricks will accept it as valid or they will reject because the heading says company email.

Of course they will accept it. Free edition was designed for learning. It wouldn't be useful at all if they would require for us be already a working employee in some company. 

So, just use your personal account and you can participate in hackathon 🙂
