Terms of use
1. Who these terms are with
These terms are between you and Mosier Information Services, Inc., doing business as MosierData ("MosierData", "we", "us" or "our"). We run Search My Church, also known as Berean Library (the "Service"). By making an account or using the Service, you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the Service.
If you use the Service for a church, you confirm that you have the authority to accept these terms for that church.
2. About the Service
Search My Church lets a church put its sermons, notes, website pages and other teaching material in one library. People can ask questions and get answers that point to the exact sermon and moment. Features may change over time. A feature described as planned or coming soon is not a promise that it will be available, or when.
Report problems to support@mosierdata.com.
3. Accounts
You must be 13 or older to have an account. If you are under the age of legal majority where you live, a parent or guardian must agree to these terms and supervise your use.
Keep your sign-in methods secure. Tell us promptly if you think someone else has used your account. A church is responsible for the people it gives staff access to.
You can ask us to delete your account at any time by email. Deletion cannot be undone. Our Privacy Policy explains what happens to your data.
4. A church's content and your rights to it
The church owns its material. A church keeps whatever ownership rights it has in the sermons, notes, pages and other content it adds. Using the Service does not transfer those rights to MosierData.
The church promises it may use it. When a church adds or connects content, it promises that it owns the content or has the right to use it this way. This includes the right to have the content copied, transcribed and processed by the Service and by the providers named in our Privacy Policy. This applies to YouTube videos too. A church may only import videos it owns, or has permission to use.
Permission to run the Service. When a church adds content, it gives MosierData a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, copy, process, transcribe, summarize, index and display it, only as needed to provide the Service and carry out the church's instructions. Service providers acting for us may handle it for those purposes under our Privacy Policy. This license does not give us ownership of the content, or permission to sell it or use it in unrelated advertising.
Removing content. A church's staff can hide or remove items in its library. A church can also ask us to delete content. We cannot remove copies that other people have already saved outside the Service.
Our software and branding. MosierData and its licensors keep their rights in the Service's software, design, branding and other materials. These terms do not transfer them to you.
5. Connecting a YouTube channel
A church can connect its YouTube channel so we can read its playlists and videos. Whoever connects a channel confirms that they manage that channel for the church, and that the church wants to connect it. We use the access only in the ways our Privacy Policy describes.
By connecting a channel, you also agree to be bound by the YouTube Terms of Service. You can remove our access at any time at myaccount.google.com/permissions.
6. Answers, accuracy and AI
The Service uses AI to find passages in a church's library and write answers from them. Each answer points to its sources. The AI can still get things wrong, miss context, or word something badly.
- An answer is not the church's official teaching, and it is not the voice of the church's pastor. Check the cited sermon before you rely on it.
- The Service is not pastoral care, counseling, or medical, legal or financial advice. If you are in crisis or in danger, contact local emergency services, or call or text 988 in the United States.
- Summaries, verse references and study guides that the Service writes are drafts. A church's staff should review them before they rely on them.
7. Fees
Some parts of the Service may require a paid plan. A church's fees, billing period and renewal terms are the ones shown when the church signs up or in the order or agreement it makes with us. Unless it says otherwise, fees are not refundable except where the law requires. We will tell a church before we change its price.
8. Acceptable use
Please don't:
- Break the law, or use the Service to harm anyone.
- Access another person's account, church library or data without permission.
- Disrupt or overload the Service, get around its access controls or usage limits, or probe our systems without permission.
- Import, upload or share content that you don't own and aren't authorized to use.
- Put hidden instructions in content to manipulate the AI or to get data you aren't allowed to see.
- Use the Service to scrape, copy or resell a church's library, or to build a competing product, without our permission.
- Resell or rebrand the Service without our permission.
We may restrict access, remove content, or suspend or close an account for violations of these terms, security risks or legal requirements. Where reasonably possible, we will explain why and give you a chance to fix it. We may act immediately when needed to protect people or the Service.
9. Warranties and limits on liability
The Service and its content are provided "as is" and "as available". To the fullest extent the law allows, MosierData disclaims all express, implied and statutory warranties, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. We do not guarantee that the Service will be uninterrupted or error-free, or that its answers or information will be accurate, complete or current.
To the fullest extent the law allows, MosierData will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages, including lost profits, loss of data or the cost of substitute services, arising from your use of or inability to use the Service. Our total liability arising out of or relating to the Service will not exceed the greater of $100 or the amount you paid us for the Service in the 12 months before the event that gave rise to the claim.
Nothing in these terms excludes or limits any warranty, liability or consumer right that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
10. Privacy
Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle personal information, AI processing and deletion.
11. Changes to the Service and these terms
We may update the Service and these terms. We will update the effective date, and give notice of material changes before they take effect, except where immediate changes are needed for security or legal reasons. Where the law requires your consent, we will ask for it. If you don't accept a change, you can stop using the Service.
12. Ending your use
You can stop using the Service at any time. A church can ask us for a copy of its content and for its library to be deleted.
We may end access for the reasons in section 8, or if we discontinue the Service. If we discontinue it, we will give reasonable notice where possible, so a church can take its content with it.
Provisions that need to continue after use ends, such as the limits on liability and permissions needed to keep retained copies, continue to apply as far as the law allows.
13. Governing law and other terms
Florida law governs these terms, excluding its conflict-of-law rules, except that mandatory consumer protections where you live remain available to you. To the extent the law allows, the exclusive venue for disputes is the state courts located in Polk County, Florida, or, where federal jurisdiction applies, the federal courts with jurisdiction over Polk County, Florida. This does not stop you from bringing a claim in another court when the law gives you that right.
You can contact support@mosierdata.com to try to resolve a concern informally. Doing so is not a condition of using your legal rights. These terms do not require arbitration or waive class-action rights.
If part of these terms is found unenforceable, the rest stays in effect as far as the law allows. If we don't enforce a part, we have not given up the right to enforce it later. These terms, and any order or agreement a church makes with us, are the whole agreement about your use of the Service.
