Terms of Use

Effective Date: November 10, 2026

These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the mobile application BibleCore (the "App," "we," "us," or "our").

By downloading, installing, accessing, or using the App, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the App.

We may update these Terms from time to time. Where required by law, we will provide notice of material changes and obtain any necessary consent. Continued use after updated terms become effective constitutes acceptance to the extent permitted by applicable law.

Your use of the App is also subject to applicable Apple App Store or Google Play terms and policies. For iOS users, these terms are between you and us, not Apple. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them as permitted by the applicable Apple terms.

Nothing in these terms limits your mandatory rights under applicable consumer protection laws.

Description of the Service

The App is a recording, transcription, and note-taking tool designed primarily for Christians, pastors, and individuals interested in Bible study and faith-related activities.

The App supports various contexts, including Sunday sermons, testimony sharing, prayer meetings, personal devotion, and Bible study.

Depending on the available features, the App may:

• Record and transcribe audio;
• Generate AI-powered summaries and notes;
• Create scripture memory cards;
• Generate reflection and devotional cards;
• Create thematic question-and-answer flashcards;
• Provide other AI-assisted learning and organizational tools.

Certain Bible translations and related materials, including ESV® and NIV®, are protected by third-party copyright and licensing restrictions.

The App may implement technical measures to restrict unauthorized use of protected Bible content, including certain AI-processing activities.

You must not circumvent these restrictions through screenshots, external recordings, manual transcription, automated extraction, or other means for unauthorized AI or machine-learning purposes.

We may update, modify, suspend, or discontinue features from time to time. Where reasonably practicable and required by law, we will provide notice of material changes affecting paid features.

Temporary interruptions may occur due to maintenance, technical issues, or circumstances beyond our reasonable control.

We may introduce beta or experimental features, which may be changed or discontinued.

Apple and Google are not responsible for providing maintenance or support for the App.

Subscriptions

The App may offer paid subscriptions through Apple App Store or Google Play In-App Purchases.

Available plans, prices, billing periods, features, and any free trial offers will be displayed before purchase.

Automatic Renewal

Subscriptions automatically renew unless canceled before the applicable renewal deadline.

For Apple subscriptions, users should generally cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current subscription or trial period to avoid renewal, subject to Apple's applicable terms.

For Google Play subscriptions, renewal and cancellation are governed by Google Play's applicable policies.

Deleting or uninstalling the App does not cancel an active subscription.

Free Trials

We may offer free trials to eligible users.

The trial duration, subsequent subscription price, billing period, and renewal conditions will be disclosed before enrollment.

Unless canceled before the applicable deadline, a free trial may convert into a paid subscription under the terms presented at purchase.

Cancellation

You may cancel your subscription through the relevant app store's subscription management settings.

After cancellation, access to paid features generally continues until the end of the current paid period, unless otherwise required by law or the applicable purchase terms.

Refunds

Purchases and refunds are subject to the applicable Apple App Store or Google Play policies and mandatory consumer protection laws.

Nothing in these Terms excludes any statutory refund or withdrawal rights that cannot lawfully be waived.

Price Changes

We may change subscription prices or plans.

Where required, we will provide advance notice and obtain any necessary consent before a price increase takes effect.

Payment Failure

If a payment fails or a subscription expires, access to paid features may be restricted or suspended.

Users who are minors must obtain any parental or guardian authorization required by applicable law before purchasing subscriptions.

You must not use the App if you do not meet the applicable eligibility requirements.

Account Registration

Certain features may require an account.

Where available, you may register or sign in using Apple, Google, or other supported authentication methods.

Ownership

The App, including its software, design, interface, branding, features, and proprietary materials, is owned by us or our licensors and protected by applicable intellectual property laws.

All rights not expressly granted are reserved.

Third-party Bible translations, audio recordings, trademarks, and related materials remain the property of their respective rights holders, including Crossway, Biblica, and other applicable licensors.

References to third-party trademarks do not imply sponsorship, endorsement, or affiliation unless expressly stated.

You do not acquire ownership of third-party copyrighted materials by accessing them through the App or receiving AI-generated content referencing them.

We reserve the right to take appropriate action against unauthorized use of our intellectual property.

We, rather than Apple or Google, are responsible for addressing intellectual property claims concerning the App to the extent required by applicable law and platform terms.

User Content

"User Content" includes recordings, text, transcriptions, prompts, notes, and other materials you submit or create through the App.

You retain ownership of your User Content to the extent permitted by law.

You are responsible for ensuring that you have the necessary rights and permissions to record, upload, and process your content.

This includes obtaining any legally required consent before recording other individuals, including speakers, pastors, or participants in meetings and religious activities.

You grant us a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, transmit, and process your User Content solely as reasonably necessary to provide, maintain, secure, and support the Services.

This license includes processing by authorized service providers acting on our behalf where necessary to deliver requested features.

Any additional use of User Content for AI training, model improvement, or unrelated purposes will be subject to applicable law, appropriate disclosure, and any required permissions.

You must not submit content that:

• Violates applicable laws;
• Infringes third-party intellectual property rights;
• Violates another person's privacy;
• Contains malicious software;
• Facilitates fraud or unlawful activities;

We may restrict or remove content that violates these Terms or applicable law.

The App may store recordings, notes, transcriptions, and generated content locally, remotely, or through a combination of storage methods.

Although we take reasonable measures to maintain service reliability, we cannot guarantee that content will never be lost or unavailable.

We encourage users to maintain independent backups of important information where supported.

The processing, retention, and deletion of personal information are described in our Privacy Policy.

Artificial Intelligence

The App uses artificial intelligence technologies, including generative AI, to support transcription, summarization, flashcard generation, and other features.

AI-generated content ("Output") may be incomplete, inaccurate, misleading, or unsuitable for a particular purpose.

You are responsible for reviewing Output before relying on it.

AI-generated religious explanations, devotional materials, scripture references, and theological summaries are provided for informational, educational, and personal reflection purposes.

They do not necessarily represent the views of any church, denomination, pastor, religious organization, or the Company.

AI-generated Output is not a substitute for independent examination of original sources or appropriate professional guidance where relevant.

We do not guarantee that Output is unique, eligible for copyright protection, or free from similarities to content generated for other users.

Subject to applicable law and third-party rights, you may use Output generated through your lawful use of the Services.

Nothing in these Terms grants ownership of copyrighted Bible translations or other third-party materials included in Output.

You must not use the App or its Output to circumvent copyright restrictions, systematically reconstruct protected Bible texts, or unlawfully develop competing AI systems.

AI processing may involve third-party technology providers. Further details concerning personal data processing are provided in our Privacy Policy.
