Website Terms of Service and Usage Guidelines

Your Agreement When Using This Website

By accessing or using this website, you agree to follow these Terms of Service. The terms apply to every visitor and, where registration or account features are available, every registered user.

Your acceptance begins when you first use the site and continues for as long as you use it. Reading a sermon, checking a ministry schedule, submitting a form, or using another site feature all count as use.

Permission to View and Use Site Materials

Impact Ministries grants you a limited, revocable license to browse and use the website for personal, non-commercial purposes. This permission covers ordinary activities such as reading ministry information, viewing sermons and teachings, and sharing a link to a public page with someone in your community.

Unless we give written permission, you may not copy substantial portions of the site, resell its materials, create a mirrored version on another server, or present the content as your own. Copyright, ownership, and other rights notices included with site materials must stay in place.

All rights in the website and its original text, graphics, recordings, downloads, and other materials remain reserved by their respective owners. A feature that allows downloading or sharing gives permission only for the use indicated by that feature.

Accurate Information and Respectful Site Use

Visitors share responsibility for keeping the website useful and secure. The following standards apply whenever you submit information, use an interactive feature, or communicate through the site.

Information submitted through forms

Provide information that is accurate and current when completing a contact, event, ministry, or other form. Do not impersonate another person or use contact details you lack permission to provide. If information changes while a request remains active, send a correction through the site’s published contact method.

Security and acceptable conduct

• Do not attempt to bypass security controls, gain unauthorized access, or test the site for vulnerabilities without written authorization.
• Never introduce malware, automated traffic, or code intended to damage, overload, scrape, or disrupt the website.
• The site may not be used to threaten others, distribute unlawful material, infringe another person’s rights, or interfere with another visitor’s access.
• Follow all applicable laws and regulations while using the website and its services.

We may restrict access, remove submitted material, or take other reasonable steps when conduct threatens the site, its visitors, or the ministry community.

Availability and Accuracy of Information

The website and its content are supplied on an “as available” basis. We may correct, update, move, or remove material as ministry plans and site needs change. We do not guarantee that every page will remain uninterrupted, error-free, current, or suitable for a particular purpose.

Online information can become outdated between revisions. A church service or community event, for example, may change after its page has been published. If a time or location affects your travel plans, confirm the details through Contact & Visit Us.

Sermons, ministry resources, and general guidance on this site do not replace independent medical, legal, financial, counseling, or other professional guidance where that support is appropriate.

Limits on Responsibility for Loss

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Impact Ministries and those involved in operating the website will not be liable for damages arising from access to, use of, or inability to use the site. This includes loss connected with reliance on site content, service interruptions, unauthorized access, harmful code, or links and materials provided by third parties.

The exclusion covers indirect, incidental, special, and consequential losses where the law allows those categories to be excluded. Your use of the site remains at your own discretion and risk.

Some jurisdictions limit the exclusion of certain warranties or liabilities. Any restriction in these terms applies only to the extent the governing law permits. Nothing here excludes a responsibility that cannot legally be excluded.

Governing Law, Local Courts, and Severability

These terms are interpreted under the laws of the jurisdiction in which Impact Ministries operates, without applying conflict-of-law rules that would require another jurisdiction’s laws. Any dispute concerning the website or these terms falls within the authority of the competent local courts, subject to rights that applicable law gives you.

If a court finds one provision unlawful or unenforceable, that provision will be limited or removed only as far as necessary. The remaining provisions will continue in force. A delay in enforcing a term does not waive the right to enforce it later.

How Revisions to These Terms Take Effect

We may revise these terms periodically to reflect changes in the website, ministry services, security practices, or legal requirements. The updated version takes effect when it is published on this page unless a different effective date is stated.

The “Last updated” date near the top of the page shows when the current wording was issued. Continued use of the website after a revision indicates acceptance of the updated terms. If you disagree with a revision, stop using the site from the effective date of that change.

Checking this page from time to time is the most direct way to review the terms currently governing use of the website.

Questions About a Specific Term

Questions are welcome when wording on this page is unclear. Messages about these terms should identify the section involved and explain what needs clarification. Information submitted through the website is also handled according to our Privacy Policy.
