7. Plan Limits
Each plan includes defined limits for attendees per service, translation languages, services per month, and archive retention. Exceeding a limit may result in access being restricted for affected users or services. We are not liable for service interruptions caused by reaching plan limits.
8. Intellectual Property
The Service, including its software, design, and AI models, is owned by Sermora AI and protected by intellectual property laws. You retain ownership of your content (church name, logos, sermon text). By using the Service, you grant us a limited license to process and store your content solely to operate the Service.
9. AI-Generated Content
AI translations and sermon summaries are generated automatically and may contain errors. You acknowledge that AI-generated content is not a substitute for professional interpretation and may not accurately reflect the speaker's intent. We make no warranty regarding the accuracy of translations or summaries.
10. Privacy
Our collection and use of personal information is governed by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference.
11. Termination
We may suspend or terminate your account at any time for material violations of these Terms, with or without notice. You may terminate your account at any time by contacting us. Upon termination, your right to use the Service ceases. Archived data will be deleted in accordance with our data retention policy.
12. Disclaimers
The Service is provided “as is” without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that captions will be 100% accurate.
13. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Sermora AI shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the Service, including but not limited to errors in AI translations during a service. Our total liability shall not exceed the amount you paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim.
14. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which Sermora AI is incorporated, without regard to its conflict of law principles. Any disputes shall be resolved in the courts of that jurisdiction.
15. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. We will notify account holders of material changes by email at least 14 days before they take effect. Continued use of the Service after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
