We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account for any reason, including violations of these Terms.

6. Intellectual Property
The App and its content (e.g., Bible translations, devotionals) are owned by us or our licensors and protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. Bible texts are provided under license from copyright holders (e.g., public domain or licensed translations like NIV, ESV). You are granted a limited, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Services for personal, non-commercial purposes. No other rights are granted.

8. Third-Party Services
The Services may integrate with third-party platforms (e.g., Apple App Store, Google Play, social media). Your use of those services is subject to their terms. We are not responsible for their content or practices.
9. Termination
You may stop using the Services at any time. We may terminate or suspend your access immediately for violations of these Terms or for any other reason. Upon termination, your right to use the Services ends, and you must delete the App.
10. Disclaimers
The Services are provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of content. Bible interpretations are for personal use; consult qualified sources for doctrinal guidance.
11. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the Services, even if advised of the possibility.

We may update these Terms at any time. We will notify you of material changes via the App or email. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance.
15. Miscellaneous
These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and us. If any provision is held invalid, the remainder remains in effect. Our failure to enforce any right does not waive it. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them freely.
