Agreeing to these terms
These terms are an agreement between you and ROARX ANALYTICS LIMITED ("we", "us") about using Bible Verses: Prayers & Memes on iPhone and Bible Memes and Quotes on Android (together, the "app"). By downloading or using the app, you agree to these terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you don't agree, please don't use the app.
Who can use the app
You must be at least 13 years old, or the minimum age to use online services in your country. If you're under 18, you need a parent or guardian's permission. Posting to the prayer wall, circles or the public feed is for people who can follow the community rules below.
Your licence to use the app
We give you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use the app on devices you own or control, for your own non-commercial use. You may share cards and verses you make in the app, including on social media.
You may not copy, sell or redistribute the app itself, reverse-engineer it except where the law allows, interfere with our servers, collect other users' content or information by automated means, or use the app to break the law.
What you share
"Your content" means prayers, comments, prayer requests, circles, published cards, reports and anything else you post.
- You own it. You give us a worldwide, free licence to host, store, display and distribute it in the app and to moderate it, for as long as it stays posted.
- It's public where you post it. Prayer wall posts, public circles and published cards can be seen by anyone using the app. Private circles can be seen by their members.
- You're responsible for it. Only post what you have the right to share, and don't post other people's private details without their permission.
- You can delete it. Delete your prayers, comments and requests in the app, or use Settings › Privacy & storage › Delete my posts & reports. Copies others have already shared or saved may remain.
Community rules
We have no tolerance for objectionable content or abusive users. Don't post anything that:
- Harasses, bullies, threatens or mocks a person or group
- Promotes hatred or violence based on race, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexuality, disability or any other identity
- Is sexual, graphic or violent
- Shares someone's private information, such as their address, phone number or health details
- Is spam, a scam, advertising or a request for money
- Pretends to be someone else, or misleads people on purpose
- Encourages self-harm or illegal activity
- Infringes someone else's copyright or trademark
Reporting and moderation
- Report: use Report on any post, prayer, comment or circle. It's hidden from you right away.
- Block: block someone on the prayer wall so you don't see what they post.
- Our review: we aim to review reports within 24 hours. We remove content that breaks these rules, and may suspend or block people who post it, without notice.
We don't review everything before it's posted, and we're not responsible for what other users share. If you see something urgent, such as a threat to someone's safety, contact local emergency services first.
Premium and purchases
- What you get: Premium ("Bible Plus") opens extra features, and on Android also removes ads. On Android, Remove Ads only removes ads. The iPhone app has no ads. Features may change over time.
- Subscriptions: Yearly and Monthly renew automatically at the same price unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Payment is charged to your App Store or Google Play account when you confirm.
- Cancelling: manage or cancel in your App Store or Google Play account settings. Deleting the app doesn't cancel a subscription. After cancelling, Premium stays on until the end of the period you paid for.
- Lifetime (and Remove Ads on Android) are one-time purchases for as long as the app is offered.
- Refunds are handled by Apple or Google under their policies. We can't issue refunds for store purchases.
- Restore: use Restore purchases to bring Premium back on a new phone signed in to the same store account.
- Watch-an-ad unlocks (Android only) open some features for a limited time and can't be exchanged for anything else.
Ads
The iPhone app has no ads. On Android, the free version shows ads from Google AdMob. We don't endorse the products advertised, and anything you buy from an advertiser is between you and them. Our Privacy Policy explains your ad choices.
Scripture and our content
Bible translations in the app are used under their publishers' licences or are in the public domain, and remain their publishers' property. Verse cards, memes, devotions, quizzes, stories, artwork, sounds and the app's design belong to us or our licensors. Memes are light-hearted and meant to encourage, never to mock the faith or anyone's beliefs.
We work to quote Scripture accurately. If you find a mistake, use Report › Scripture is quoted wrong.
Not professional advice
Devotions, prayers, meditations and community posts are for spiritual encouragement. They are not medical, mental health, legal or financial advice, and they don't replace a doctor, counsellor or pastor. Breathing exercises and meditations are optional; stop if you feel unwell.
If you are in crisis or thinking about harming yourself, contact your local emergency number or a crisis line right away.
Other services
Some features use services run by others, such as Google Sign-In, Google Drive backup, the community prayer service, Apple and Google stores, and AdMob. Their own terms also apply when you use them, and we aren't responsible for them.
Extra terms for iPhone
If you got the app from Apple's App Store:
- These terms are between you and us, not Apple. We, not Apple, are responsible for the app and its content.
- Your licence is limited to Apple-branded devices you own or control, as the App Store Terms of Service allow, including Family Sharing.
- Apple has no duty to provide maintenance or support for the app.
- If the app fails to meet any warranty that applies, you can notify Apple, and Apple will refund the price you paid for it, if any. To the extent the law allows, Apple has no other warranty obligation for the app.
- We, not Apple, handle any claims about the app, including product liability, failure to meet legal or regulatory requirements, and consumer protection claims.
- If someone claims the app or your use of it infringes their intellectual property, we, not Apple, are responsible for investigating and resolving it.
- You confirm you're not in a country under a U.S. government embargo or listed as a terrorist-supporting country, and you're not on a U.S. government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
- Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms and may enforce them against you.
Disclaimers
To the extent the law allows, the app is provided "as is" and "as available". We don't promise it will always be available, error-free or secure, or that content will always be accurate or complete. Some countries don't allow these exclusions, so some may not apply to you, and nothing here limits rights you have under consumer law.
Limits of liability
To the extent the law allows, we aren't liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential losses, or for lost data, profits or goodwill, arising from your use of the app or other users' content. Our total liability for any claim is limited to the greater of what you paid us for the app in the 12 months before the claim, or [USD 50]. Nothing here limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or anything else the law doesn't allow us to limit.
Ending use
You can stop using the app at any time by deleting it. We may suspend or end your access to shared features if you break these terms, or stop offering the app or a feature, with notice where reasonable. Sections about your content licence, disclaimers, liability and governing law continue after you stop using the app.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of [country or state], and disputes go to the courts of [city, country], unless the consumer laws of the country you live in give you the right to use your local law and courts.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms as the app changes. We will update the date at the top, and tell you in the app before important changes take effect. If you keep using the app after that, you accept the new terms.
