Terms of Service

Effective date: November 3, 2026

These terms are an agreement between you and Online Ventures LLC ("we", "us"), the publisher of the Bible & You app ("the app"). By downloading or using the app, you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the app.

1. What the app offers

• A daily Bible verse, reminders and a home-screen widget
• The full King James Version Bible, with search and bookmarks
• A private prayer journal stored on your device
• Ask Grace, an AI Bible study companion: 5 free questions per day, more with Premium

The King James Version text is in the public domain. The app's design, code, curated verse list, reflections and name belong to us.

2. Your licence to use the app

The app is licensed to you, not sold. We grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to install and use the app on Android devices you own or control, for your own non-commercial use, in line with these terms and the Google Play Terms of Service. We and our licensors keep all rights not expressly granted to you. That includes all copyright, trademark and other intellectual property rights in the app's code, design, curated content and the Bible & You name.

3. Reverse engineering and tampering are prohibited

You must not, and must not help or allow anyone else to:

• decompile, disassemble, reverse engineer or otherwise try to derive the source code, algorithms, data structures or underlying ideas of the app or any part of it, including its Dart, Kotlin or native code and its bundled assets
• modify, patch, adapt, translate or create derivative works of the app, or distribute modified, "cracked" or repackaged versions of it
• bypass, disable or interfere with any security, licensing, purchase verification, rate limit or usage limit, including the free question limit and Premium checks
• access, call or probe our servers or APIs other than through an unmodified copy of the app. This includes scraping, automated querying and security testing without our written permission.
• extract, copy or re-use the app's curated verse list, reflections, graphics or other content in another product
• copy, sell, rent, lease, sublicense or redistribute the app

These restrictions apply except where, and only to the extent that, applicable law expressly gives you a right that cannot be waived by contract. One example is the limited right under EU law to decompile software to achieve interoperability. Before relying on any such right, you must first ask us in writing at [email protected] for the information you need.

Breaking this section is a breach of these terms and of our licence. It immediately ends your right to use the app and may also infringe our copyright and other rights under the law, including laws against circumventing technical protection measures. We may block access to Ask Grace and Premium, and we reserve the right to take legal action, including seeking an injunction and damages.

4. Using the app responsibly

You also agree not to:

• use automated tools to send questions to Ask Grace, or overload our server
• use Ask Grace to create harmful, hateful, illegal or abusive content

We may limit or block access to Ask Grace for anyone who misuses it.

5. About Ask Grace (AI answers)

Grace aims to stay ecumenical and focused on Scripture. Answers don't represent the official teaching of any church or denomination. Questions and answers are handled as described in our Privacy Policy. Ask Grace needs an internet connection and may sometimes be unavailable.

6. Premium subscriptions

• Plans: Premium Monthly ($2.99 per month) or Premium Annual ($19.99 per year), in US dollars. Google Play shows the price in your local currency, which may differ.
• Free trial: new subscribers may get a 7-day free trial. Unless you cancel before the trial ends, the subscription starts and you're charged automatically. Trials are limited to one per person, as decided by Google Play.
• Automatic renewal: subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each period unless you cancel at least 24 hours before it ends.
• Cancelling: open the Google Play Store app → Profile → Payments & subscriptions → Subscriptions → Bible & You → Cancel. Uninstalling the app does not cancel your subscription. After you cancel, Premium stays active until the end of the period you've paid for.
• Refunds: payments are processed by Google Play, and refunds follow Google Play's refund policy. You can also email us and we'll help where we can.
• What Premium includes: more Ask Grace questions, subject to reasonable fair-use limits that protect the service from abuse. Features marked "coming soon" are planned but not promised. Our free features stay free.
• Price changes: if the price changes, Google Play will notify you in advance as its rules require. You can cancel before the new price applies.

7. Your content

Your prayer journal entries are yours. They stay on your device, and we never receive them. If your phone is lost, reset or the app is uninstalled, they may be lost too, unless your Android backup includes them. We can't recover them for you.

8. Changes and availability

We may update, change or discontinue features, including Ask Grace, at any time. If we permanently stop offering Premium, we'll stop renewals and handle any remaining paid period according to Google Play's policies.

9. Disclaimer

The app is provided "as is" and "as available". To the fullest extent the law allows, we make no warranties of any kind, whether express or implied. This includes warranties of accuracy, fitness for a particular purpose, and uninterrupted or error-free operation.

10. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages, or for loss of data, arising from your use of the app or from any AI answer.

Security incidents and data breaches. We take reasonable steps to protect the limited information we handle, and we keep as little as possible (see our Privacy Policy). No app, server or internet transmission is completely secure, so we can't guarantee that information will never be accessed, disclosed, altered or lost without authorization. To the fullest extent the law allows, we are not responsible or liable for any loss or damage caused by:

• hacking, unauthorized access, data breaches, leaks, malware or other cyberattacks against our server, our hosting provider, the AI providers, Google Play or any other third-party service the app relies on
• anyone gaining access to your phone, its backups or your Google account, including through a lost, stolen, shared or compromised device, and then reading or copying your prayer journal or other app data
• security weaknesses in your device, its operating system or other apps installed on it

Where the law requires us to notify you or the authorities about a data breach, we will do so.

Our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us for the app in the 12 months before the claim. Some places don't allow these limits, so they may not apply to you. Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability that can't be excluded or limited under applicable law, such as liability for our own gross negligence or wilful misconduct, or rights you have under consumer-protection and data-protection laws that can't be waived.

11. Ending these terms

You can stop using the app at any time by uninstalling it. Remember to cancel any subscription in Google Play. We may suspend access to Ask Grace if these terms are broken.

12. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Mississippi, United States, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. If you live in the EU, UK or another place whose consumer laws give you the right to bring claims in your home courts, you keep that right.

13. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. We'll change the effective date above and, for significant changes, mention it in the app's release notes. If you keep using the app after an update, you accept the new terms.
