4 Intellectual Property Rights

Unless otherwise indicated, all content on the platform—including devotionals, e-books, source code, and designs—is owned by or controlled by us and is protected by copyright and trademark laws.

• Digital Content License: Purchasing an e-book or subscription grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access and read the content for personal, non-commercial use.

6 User Contributions & Zero Tolerance for Abuse

The platform's Fellowship & Prayer feature lets you post prayer requests, comments, and encouragements visible to other users. By using this feature you agree that:

• No objectionable content. We have zero tolerance for objectionable content and abusive behavior of any kind, including but not limited to harassment, hate speech, threats, sexually explicit material, or content that is illegal or contradicts the faith and values of the Nigerian Baptist Convention.
• Reporting. Any post or comment can be reported directly in the app (tap the post's menu → "Report post"). Reports are reviewed by our moderation team, and violating content is removed.
• Blocking. You may block any user directly in the app (tap the post's menu → "Block user"); once blocked, that user's posts and comments are hidden from you immediately.
• Enforcement. We reserve the right to remove any content, and to suspend or permanently ban any account, that violates this policy, without prior notice.

7 Modifications & Interruptions

We reserve the right to change, modify, or remove the contents of the website or app at any time at our sole discretion. We will not be liable to you or any third party for any modification, price change, suspension, or discontinuance of the platform.
