Terms of Use
Use OurBible with respect and good faith.
These terms set the basic rules for using OurBible, protecting users, and keeping the platform safe for Scripture, prayer, fellowship, study, and local encouragement.
Service Purpose
OurBible provides Bible reading, Bible search, city and state hub discovery, reading plans, prayer tools, study notes, fellowship features, and approved community content. The platform is not a substitute for a church, pastor, counselor, attorney, doctor, emergency service, or other professional support.
Accounts
Users are responsible for their account activity, password security, and the accuracy of submitted information. The platform may limit, suspend, or remove accounts that abuse the service, threaten users, attack the platform, or violate these terms.
Acceptable Use
- Do not post threats, harassment, exploitation, hate, spam, malware, or unlawful content.
- Do not publish private information about yourself or others without permission.
- Do not scrape, attack, overload, reverse engineer, or interfere with the platform.
- Do not use prayer, study, or fellowship features to manipulate, defraud, or harm people.
User Content
Users keep responsibility for what they submit. By submitting content, users allow OurBible to store, process, moderate, display, and distribute that content as needed to operate the service. Private content remains private by default. Public content may be reviewed, edited for safety or formatting, rejected, hidden, or removed.
Public Prayer and Community Posts
Public prayer requests, devotionals, testimonies, messages, and local content may require review before publication. Approval is not guaranteed. The platform may remove public content that exposes personal information, creates safety concerns, misleads users, or does not fit the purpose of the site.
Bible Content and Resources
Bible translations, devotional resources, images, and other materials may have their own rights or licenses. Users may not upload or publish content they do not have the right to use. OurBible may remove material when ownership, licensing, or safety is unclear.
Availability and Changes
The service may change, pause, break, or be discontinued. Features may be added, limited, or removed as needed for security, maintenance, cost, moderation, legal compliance, or platform direction.
Platform Protection
To protect users and the platform, OurBible may log security events, block abusive behavior, remove harmful content, restrict access, preserve moderation records, and cooperate when legally required. The platform is provided as available, without a promise that every feature will be uninterrupted or error-free.
