Last Updated: May 31, 2026

These Terms of Service, together with any additional terms, policies, rules, guidelines, disclosures, and notices that we publish or make available through the Services, form a legally binding agreement between Calvary Broadcasting, Inc. (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) and each person who accesses or uses the Services (“you” or “user”).

Please read these Terms carefully. By accessing, downloading, installing, enabling, streaming, listening to, subscribing to, purchasing, using, or otherwise interacting with the Services, you agree to these Terms.

If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Services.

1. Services Covered by These Terms

These Terms apply to all websites, mobile applications, audio players, embedded players, streaming feeds, podcast feeds, downloadable materials, voice-enabled services, smart-speaker services, connected-device services, newsletters, accounts, subscription services, donation pages, and other online or digital offerings operated by or on behalf of Company, including without limitation:

Collectively, these are the “Services.”

2. Religious Content Notice and Express Acknowledgment

The Services provide Christian religious content, including sermons, teaching, preaching, commentary, worship materials, devotionals, scriptural interpretation, doctrinal discussion, pastoral messages, moral teaching, and related religious expression.

You understand and agree that the Services may include religious, theological, doctrinal, moral, ethical, cultural, and social viewpoints based on traditional Christian beliefs. Such content may address topics including, without limitation, scripture, sin, salvation, repentance, marriage, family, sexuality, gender, parenting, church doctrine, religious duty, moral conduct, politics, culture, current events, and other sensitive subjects.

By using the Services, you acknowledge and agree that:

  1. you are voluntarily choosing to access religious content;
  2. the content may conflict with your personal beliefs, values, identity, worldview, moral commitments, religious views, political views, or social views;
  3. the content may be challenging, controversial, upsetting, offensive, disagreeable, or unwelcome to some listeners;
  4. Company does not guarantee that any sermon, teaching, statement, viewpoint, or message will be acceptable to you or any other person;
  5. your sole remedy if you object to any content is to stop using the Services; and
  6. to the maximum extent permitted by law, you waive and release Company from claims based solely on your disagreement with, offense at, emotional reaction to, or dislike of religious, doctrinal, moral, or viewpoint-based content made available through the Services.

Nothing in these Terms is intended to limit rights that cannot lawfully be waived.

3. No Obligation to Modify Religious Viewpoints

Company reserves the right to teach, preach, publish, stream, distribute, promote, preserve, remove, edit, decline to edit, organize, categorize, or otherwise manage content in accordance with its religious mission, editorial judgment, ministry priorities, and expressive rights.

The Services are not directed to children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided personal information to us, contact us at [email protected].

We may suspend or terminate accounts that we believe violate these Terms, create risk, infringe rights, misuse the Services, or otherwise harm Company, users, third-party platforms, or the public.

7. Privacy

Your use of the Services is also governed by our Privacy Policy, available at https://www.calvarybroadcasting.org/about/privacy.

The Privacy Policy is incorporated into these Terms by reference. The Privacy Policy should describe what information we collect, how we use it, how we share it, how users may contact us, and any rights users may have under applicable privacy laws.

Voice-enabled services, mobile apps, app stores, smart-speaker platforms, payment processors, analytics providers, hosting providers, and other third-party services may collect or process information under their own terms and privacy policies.

8. Third-Party Platforms and Devices

The Services may be accessed through third-party platforms, devices, app stores, voice assistants, browsers, operating systems, media players, networks, carriers, or other services, including Amazon, Apple, Google, Android, Alexa, Google Assistant, Google Home, Roku, mobile carriers, podcast directories, and similar providers.

Your use of those platforms may be governed by separate third-party terms, policies, rules, billing procedures, privacy practices, content rules, device settings, parental controls, and account requirements.

Company does not control third-party platforms and is not responsible for:

  • platform availability;
  • platform content moderation decisions;
  • app-store or skill-store approvals, removals, suspensions, or rejections;
  • device settings;
  • voice recognition errors;
  • misheard commands;
  • search-result placement;
  • subscription billing handled by a platform;
  • platform refunds;
  • interruptions, outages, or defects caused by third parties; or
  • any data collection or processing performed by a third-party platform.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, third-party platforms are not responsible for Company’s content, and Company is not responsible for third-party platform conduct.

9. Voice Services and Smart Speakers

If you access the Services through Alexa, Google Assistant, Google Home, Siri, smart speakers, connected vehicles, or similar voice-enabled environments, you understand and agree that:

  1. voice commands may be misheard, mistranscribed, delayed, or incorrectly interpreted;
  2. audio may play aloud in shared or public spaces;
  3. others nearby may hear content you request;
  4. platform providers may process voice commands, usage data, and device information;
  5. parental controls, household settings, and device privacy settings are your responsibility;
  6. Company may not be able to authenticate every voice user;
  7. the Services are not designed for emergency use; and
  8. if you do not want content to play aloud, you should not invoke the Services through a shared or audible device.

You are responsible for your device settings, account permissions, household permissions, purchase controls, and parental controls.

10. Sermons, Teaching, and Informational Content

The Services are provided for religious, educational, devotional, expressive, and informational purposes.

Content made available through the Services is not legal, medical, financial, psychological, psychiatric, therapeutic, emergency, or professional advice. Sermons and religious teaching may include general spiritual, moral, or pastoral discussion, but they do not create a pastor-parishioner, counselor-client, fiduciary, professional, or confidential relationship with you.

You should seek appropriate professional advice for legal, medical, mental-health, financial, safety, or emergency matters. If you are experiencing an emergency, call emergency services immediately.

11. User Conduct

You agree not to:

  • use the Services unlawfully;
  • interfere with or disrupt the Services;

  • bypass geographic, access, subscription, security, or technical restrictions;
  • use the Services in a way that violates third-party platform rules; or
  • encourage others to do any of the above.

12. User Submissions

If the Services allow you to submit comments, messages, reviews, testimonials, prayer requests, questions, photos, audio, video, text, or other materials, those materials are “User Submissions.”

You retain ownership of your User Submissions, but you grant Company a worldwide, nonexclusive, royalty-free, fully paid, sublicensable, transferable license to host, store, reproduce, display, perform, publish, distribute, adapt, edit, translate, create derivative works from, and otherwise use your User Submissions in connection with the Services, Company’s ministry, and Company’s related communications.

You represent and warrant that:

  1. you own or have all rights needed to submit the User Submissions;
  2. your User Submissions do not violate any law or third-party right;
  3. your User Submissions are not defamatory, threatening, harassing, abusive, obscene, pornographic, exploitative, or unlawful;
  4. your User Submissions do not disclose another person’s private information without authorization; and
  5. your User Submissions do not contain malware or harmful code.

Company may, but is not required to, review, edit, refuse, remove, disable, or preserve User Submissions.

13. Prayer Requests and Sensitive Communications

If you submit prayer requests, counseling requests, testimony, personal stories, questions, or similar communications, do not include sensitive personal information unless you are comfortable providing it to us.

Unless we expressly agree otherwise in a signed writing, submissions through the Services are not confidential, privileged, or guaranteed to receive a response.

Do not use the Services for emergencies, crisis counseling, threats of self-harm or harm to others, medical needs, abuse reporting, or time-sensitive requests. Contact appropriate emergency services, law enforcement, licensed professionals, or crisis resources.

14. Intellectual Property

The Services and all content made available through them, including sermons, audio, video, text, graphics, logos, designs, interfaces, software, compilations, databases, trademarks, service marks, trade names, and other materials, are owned by Company or its licensors and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws.

Subject to these Terms, Company grants you a limited, revocable, nonexclusive, nontransferable, nonsublicensable license to access and use the Services for personal, noncommercial use.

You may not copy, record, reproduce, distribute, publicly perform, publicly display, modify, translate, create derivative works from, sell, license, upload, post, transmit, scrape, archive, or commercially exploit any content except as expressly authorized by Company in writing or as permitted by law.

15. Permitted Sharing

Unless otherwise stated, you may share publicly available links to Company content for personal, noncommercial purposes, provided that you do not:

  • alter the content;
  • remove attribution or notices;
  • imply Company endorses you, your organization, your product, or your views;
  • place content next to unlawful, pornographic, defamatory, hateful, or exploitative material;
  • charge for access to Company content; or
  • use content in a misleading manner.

Embedding, rebroadcasting, syndicating, training AI systems on, or redistributing substantial portions of Company content requires prior written permission.

If you believe material on the Services infringes your copyright, send a notice to:

Copyright Agent: Calvary Broadcasting, Inc.
Address: 19 Bilbury Way, Travelers Rest, SC 29690
Email: [email protected]
Phone: 864-610-4280

Your notice should include:

  1. identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed;
  2. identification of the allegedly infringing material and its location;
  3. your contact information;
  4. a statement that you have a good-faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized;
  5. a statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act for the owner; and
  6. your physical or electronic signature.

We may remove or disable access to allegedly infringing material and may terminate repeat infringers.

17. Donations, Purchases, and Subscriptions

The Services may allow donations, purchases, paid subscriptions, memberships, premium access, paid audio, paid skills, in-app purchases, or other transactions.

Prices, features, renewal terms, trial terms, billing intervals, cancellation procedures, refund terms, taxes, and payment methods will be disclosed at or before purchase, or through the applicable third-party platform.

You agree to pay all charges you authorize. If a transaction is processed by a third-party platform, payment, cancellation, renewal, refund, and tax handling may be governed by that platform’s terms and procedures.

Unless otherwise stated at purchase or required by law, donations are voluntary and nonrefundable, and digital purchases may be nonrefundable once access is provided.

For automatically renewing subscriptions, your subscription will renew unless canceled in accordance with the disclosed cancellation process. You are responsible for canceling before renewal if you do not want to be charged.

Nothing in these Terms limits any refund, cancellation, or consumer-protection right that cannot lawfully be waived.

18. Availability and Changes to the Services

Company may modify, suspend, discontinue, remove, restrict, replace, or update any part of the Services at any time, including content, features, archives, sermons, feeds, mobile apps, platform integrations, subscriptions, pricing, and availability.

We do not guarantee that any particular sermon, speaker, archive, feature, platform, app, skill, feed, or service will remain available.

The Services may be unavailable due to maintenance, outages, platform changes, moderation decisions, legal issues, security incidents, technical failures, or circumstances beyond our control.

19. No Warranties

The Services are provided “as is” and “as available.”

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Company disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, noninfringement, accuracy, availability, uninterrupted operation, security, compatibility, and error-free performance.

Company does not warrant that:

  • the Services will meet your expectations;
  • content will be accurate, complete, current, or suitable for your circumstances;
  • content will not offend you;
  • the Services will be uninterrupted or error-free;
  • defects will be corrected;
  • the Services will be secure;
  • the Services will remain available on any third-party platform; or
  • voice services will correctly recognize or respond to commands.

20. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Company and its officers, directors, employees, pastors, ministers, speakers, contractors, volunteers, agents, affiliates, licensors, service providers, and representatives will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, punitive, enhanced, or similar damages, including lost profits, lost revenue, lost data, loss of goodwill, emotional distress, reputational harm, business interruption, device failure, or platform unavailability.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Company’s total liability for all claims arising out of or relating to the Services or these Terms will not exceed the greater of:

  1. the amount you paid Company for the Services in the three months before the event giving rise to the claim; or
  2. US $100.

These limitations apply regardless of legal theory, including contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, warranty, statute, or otherwise, even if Company has been advised of the possibility of damages.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations of liability, so some limitations may not apply to you.

21. Release for Viewpoint-Based Claims

To the maximum extent permitted by law, you release Company and its officers, directors, employees, pastors, ministers, speakers, contractors, volunteers, agents, affiliates, licensors, service providers, and representatives from claims, demands, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses arising out of or relating to your objection to, disagreement with, offense at, or emotional reaction to religious, doctrinal, theological, moral, cultural, political, or social viewpoints expressed through the Services.

This release does not apply to claims that cannot lawfully be released.

22. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Company and its officers, directors, employees, pastors, ministers, speakers, contractors, volunteers, agents, affiliates, licensors, service providers, and representatives from and against any claims, damages, liabilities, losses, costs, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of or relating to:

  • your use or misuse of the Services;
  • your violation of these Terms;
  • your User Submissions;
  • your violation of law;
  • your violation of third-party rights;
  • your misuse of Company content;
  • your unauthorized commercial use of the Services; or
  • your conduct on or through third-party platforms in connection with the Services.

Company reserves the right to control the defense and settlement of any matter subject to indemnification, and you agree to cooperate with us.

23. Termination

We may suspend, restrict, or terminate your access to the Services at any time if we believe you have violated these Terms, created risk, infringed rights, misused the Services, failed to pay amounts due, violated platform rules, or otherwise acted in a manner harmful to Company, users, third parties, or the Services.

You may stop using the Services at any time. Termination does not relieve you of obligations that accrued before termination.

Sections that by their nature should survive termination will survive, including intellectual-property rights, disclaimers, limitations of liability, releases, indemnification, dispute resolution, and governing law.

24. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of South Carolina, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, except to the extent federal law applies.

25. Informal Dispute Resolution

Before filing a claim, you and Company agree to try to resolve the dispute informally.

A party initiating a dispute must send written notice describing the dispute, the relief requested, and contact information to:

[email protected]
19 Bilbury Way, Travelers Rest, SC 29690

The parties will attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute for 30 days after notice is received.

26. No Mandatory Arbitration

These Terms do not require arbitration. Unless the parties separately agree in writing after a dispute arises, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Services, your use of the Services, or any content made available through the Services may be brought only in a court of competent jurisdiction as provided in Section 27.

Nothing in these Terms prevents either party from seeking informal resolution of a dispute before filing a claim. Nothing in these Terms limits either party’s right to seek temporary, preliminary, or permanent injunctive relief where legally available.

27. Exclusive Venue and Court Jurisdiction

To the maximum extent permitted by law, you and Company agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Services, your use of the Services, or any content made available through the Services must be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Greenville, South Carolina.

You and Company consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts and waive any objection to jurisdiction, venue, or inconvenient forum in those courts.

This Section does not prevent Company from seeking injunctive or equitable relief in any jurisdiction where necessary to protect its intellectual property, confidential information, systems, security, rights, or the availability and integrity of the Services.

If applicable law does not permit exclusive venue in Greenville, South Carolina for a particular claim, then that claim may be brought in any court of competent jurisdiction required by applicable law, and the remaining provisions of these Terms will continue to apply to the maximum extent permitted.

28. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. The updated Terms will be posted through the Services or otherwise made available.

The “Last Updated” date indicates when the Terms were last revised. Your continued use of the Services after updated Terms are posted means you accept the updated Terms.

If we make material changes, we may provide additional notice where required by law.

29. Additional Terms for Mobile Applications

If you download or use a Company mobile application, you also agree that:

  1. you are responsible for maintaining compatible devices, software, and internet access;
  2. app features may vary by device, operating system, jurisdiction, and app-store rules;
  3. updates may be required for continued use;
  4. app stores may impose additional terms;
  5. in-app purchases may be processed by the applicable app store;
  6. Company is not responsible for app-store billing, device performance, operating-system changes, or app-store availability; and
  7. app permissions may be managed through your device settings.

30. Apple-Specific Terms

If you access the Services through an Apple application, you acknowledge that these Terms are between you and Company, not Apple. Apple is not responsible for the Services or their content.

To the extent required by Apple’s applicable terms, Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce these Terms against you.

31. Google-Specific Terms

If you access the Services through Google Play, Google Assistant, Google Home, Android, or another Google service, your use may also be governed by Google’s applicable terms, policies, billing rules, account settings, privacy practices, and device controls.

Company is not responsible for Google’s platform decisions, billing procedures, availability, account settings, or data processing.

32. Amazon Alexa-Specific Terms

If you access the Services through Amazon Alexa or an Alexa skill, your use may also be governed by Amazon’s applicable terms, policies, account settings, voice settings, device settings, purchase controls, privacy practices, and household controls.

Company is not responsible for Amazon’s platform decisions, skill availability, account linking, billing procedures, voice recognition, purchase controls, household settings, or data processing.

33. International Users

Company is operated from the United States. We do not represent that the Services are appropriate or available in every jurisdiction.

If you access the Services from outside the United States, you are responsible for compliance with local laws. You may not use the Services where prohibited by law.

34. Export and Sanctions Compliance

You may not use, export, reexport, download, or transfer the Services or related technology in violation of applicable export-control, sanctions, or trade laws.

You represent that you are not located in, organized under the laws of, or ordinarily resident in a jurisdiction subject to comprehensive U.S. sanctions, and that you are not listed on any applicable restricted-party list.

35. Force Majeure

Company will not be liable for delay or failure to perform caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including acts of God, natural disasters, war, terrorism, civil unrest, labor disputes, internet failures, platform outages, utility failures, cyberattacks, government action, legal restrictions, pandemics, or failures of third-party providers.

36. Assignment

You may not assign or transfer these Terms without Company’s prior written consent.

Company may assign or transfer these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, sale of assets, ministry restructuring, change in control, or by operation of law.

37. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found invalid, unlawful, or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law, and the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.

38. No Waiver

Company’s failure to enforce any provision of these Terms is not a waiver of that provision or any other provision.

39. Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any additional terms incorporated by reference, constitute the entire agreement between you and Company regarding the Services and supersede all prior or contemporaneous understandings.
