Terms of Service

These Terms of Service govern your use of SmartVerses software, websites, cloud-connected services, support channels, and related APIs provided by Risebyte Ltd, trading as SmartVerses.

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

You must be legally able to enter into a binding agreement to use SmartVerses. If you use SmartVerses on behalf of a church, ministry, company, or other organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization to these Terms.

SmartVerses includes desktop and cloud-assisted features for sermon and presentation workflows.

• SmartVerses may provide live transcription, Bible verse detection, search, summaries, exports, slide generation, and related workflow tools.
• Some features may run locally on your device, while others may use SmartVerses Cloud or third-party providers.
• SmartVerses Cloud may provide account access, billing, and hosted AI or transcription workflows.
• Feature availability can vary by plan, account status, region, software version, or provider availability.

Subject to these Terms, SmartVerses grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the software and services for your personal, ministry, or internal organizational use.

• You may not resell, sublicense, or commercially redistribute SmartVerses except where we expressly allow it in writing.
• You may not reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract source code from closed-source portions of SmartVerses except to the extent applicable law permits.
• You may not remove proprietary notices, branding, or license notices included with the software.
• You may not use SmartVerses in violation of law or in a way that harms the service or other users.

Some SmartVerses features require an account, authenticated session, or cloud access.

• You are responsible for keeping your login credentials, devices, and provider keys secure.
• You are responsible for activity that occurs through your account or authenticated sessions unless caused by our breach of these Terms.
• SmartVerses may register devices or sessions associated with your account to operate account-linked features, security controls, and service access.
• We may suspend or limit access if we reasonably believe an account, device, or session is being used in an abusive, fraudulent, or unauthorized way.

SmartVerses may offer free and paid plans. Plan details shown in the product, checkout flow, or official pricing materials are incorporated into these Terms.

• Paid subscriptions may renew automatically until canceled, unless we state otherwise at purchase.
• We may change pricing, plans, features, or usage allowances prospectively with reasonable notice where required.
• If SmartVerses supports bring-your-own-key provider usage, SmartVerses does not charge SmartVerses Cloud fees for those supported BYO-key requests; your external provider may still charge you under its own pricing.
• Using your own provider key does not obligate SmartVerses to subsidize, reimburse, or support third-party provider charges.

• If you purchase a paid plan, you authorize SmartVerses and its payment processors to charge the payment method you provide.
• Unless otherwise required by law or expressly stated by us, fees are non-refundable once charged.
• You may cancel recurring paid service at any time, and cancellation will generally apply at the end of the current paid period unless stated otherwise during checkout.
• Taxes, currency conversion charges, and third-party payment fees may apply depending on your location and payment method.

SmartVerses may rely on or interoperate with third-party services, including authentication, payments, transcription, AI-model providers, email, hosting, and storage infrastructure.

• Your use of third-party services through SmartVerses may also be subject to those third parties' terms and policies.
• SmartVerses is not responsible for outages, pricing changes, policy changes, or acts or omissions of third-party providers.
• References to third-party products or platforms are for compatibility or descriptive purposes only.

SmartVerses may describe compatibility with ProPresenter or other third-party products, but SmartVerses is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or approved by Renewed Vision, LLC or the ProPresenter product. Any third-party marks remain the property of their respective owners.

• You retain your rights in sermons, notes, prompts, transcripts, custom content, exports, and other material you create or submit through SmartVerses.
• You are responsible for ensuring you have the rights and permissions needed for content you process, display, transmit, or export using SmartVerses.
• You are responsible for how you use generated results, detected references, slide outputs, and any sermon-related material.
• SmartVerses may use feedback you voluntarily submit to troubleshoot, improve, and support the service.

SmartVerses may include or work with Bible references, translations, and other third-party materials that are subject to separate copyright, license, or publisher restrictions.

• You are responsible for complying with any translation-specific, publisher, or downstream usage restrictions that apply to content you display or export.
• You may not use SmartVerses to scrape, bulk-extract, or build a competing database or product from protected third-party content.
• Open-source components included with SmartVerses remain subject to their own license terms.

• You may not use SmartVerses to violate law, infringe intellectual property rights, or interfere with the rights of others.
• You may not attempt to bypass usage controls, billing safeguards, rate limits, authentication, or service protections.

• These Terms do not transfer ownership of SmartVerses or any SmartVerses intellectual property to you.
• If you send us ideas, feature suggestions, or other feedback, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to use that feedback for product and service improvement without further obligation to you.

• SmartVerses may update, suspend, or discontinue features, integrations, pricing, or technical requirements from time to time.
• We do not guarantee that every feature will remain available in every version, plan, jurisdiction, or operating environment.
• We may apply usage limits, maintenance windows, anti-abuse restrictions, or service changes needed to protect the platform.

SmartVerses is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

• We do not guarantee uninterrupted operation, perfect transcription accuracy, perfect Bible-reference detection, or error-free generated outputs.
• You are responsible for reviewing outputs before relying on them in worship, publishing, ministry, or other live settings.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Risebyte Ltd and its directors, officers, employees, contractors, licensors, and service providers will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, goodwill, data, ministry opportunity, or business interruption arising out of or related to SmartVerses. To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total liability for claims arising out of or relating to SmartVerses will not exceed the amount you paid to SmartVerses for the applicable service during the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim, or one hundred U.S. dollars if you paid nothing.

• You may stop using SmartVerses at any time.
• We may suspend or terminate access if you materially breach these Terms, create legal or security risk, abuse the service, or fail to pay amounts due.
• Sections that by their nature should survive termination will survive, including ownership, disclaimers, liability limits, payment obligations, and dispute terms.

These Terms are governed by the laws applicable to Risebyte Ltd, excluding conflict-of-laws rules, unless mandatory local consumer law requires otherwise. Venue for disputes will lie in the courts having jurisdiction over Risebyte Ltd unless applicable law provides you another non-waivable forum.

We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we may update the date above and provide notice through the product, website, or other reasonable means. Continued use of SmartVerses after updated Terms become effective means you accept the revised Terms.

Questions about these Terms can be sent through your SmartVerses support channel or through the contact method provided in your SmartVerses account or official SmartVerses support materials.
