Terms of Use

Last updated: July 6, 2026

Welcome to the website of Alpine Bible Church (“we,” “us,” or “our”), located at www.alpinebible.com and our mobile applications for iOS and Android (together with the website, the “Services”). By accessing or using the Services, you agree to these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, please do not use the Services.

Use of the Site

You may use the Site for lawful, personal, and ministry-related purposes. You agree not to:

  • Use the Site in any way that violates applicable law or these Terms.
  • Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the Site, accounts, or systems.
  • Interfere with, disrupt, or place undue load on the Site or its infrastructure.
  • Upload or transmit malicious code, spam, or harmful content.
  • Misrepresent your identity or submit false information through our forms.

Accounts

Administrative accounts are available only to invited church staff and volunteers. If you are given an account, you are responsible for keeping your sign-in credentials secure and for all activity under your account. Notify us promptly of any unauthorized use.

Your Submissions

When you submit information through a form (such as a contact message, prayer request, story, or survey), you confirm the information is accurate and that you have the right to share it. Submissions are handled with care by our staff and volunteers. Please do not send card numbers or other financial details through a form. If you share health information, for example in a prayer request or an event registration, see our Privacy Policy for who can see it and how long we keep it. By submitting content, you grant us permission to use it for the ministry purpose for which it was provided.

Community Content and Conduct

Our mobile app includes a prayer wall where the prayer requests and replies you post are publicly visible to other app users after they are reviewed by our staff. The name you choose to display is shown with your post. Do not include confidential or sensitive personal information in a public post.

You are responsible for the content you post. There is zero tolerance for objectionable content — including anything harassing, hateful, threatening, obscene, defamatory, deceptive, infringing, or spam. All posts are subject to our Community Guidelines. We pre-moderate content, and we may decline, remove, or hide any content and restrict or block any user who violates these Terms or the Community Guidelines, at our discretion and without notice. The app provides tools to report objectionable content and to block another user; we act on reports promptly, typically within 24 hours.

Intellectual Property

The content on the Site — including text, sermons, audio, video, graphics, and logos — is owned by or licensed to Alpine Bible Church and is protected by applicable laws. You may view, download, and share content for personal, non-commercial, and ministry use with attribution. You may not republish or redistribute content for commercial purposes without our permission.

Scripture quotations are from the ESV® Bible (The Holy Bible, English Standard Version®), © 2001 by Crossway, a publishing ministry of Good News Publishers. Used by permission. All rights reserved. The ESV text may not be quoted in any publication made available to the public by a Creative Commons license. The ESV may not be translated into any other language.

Users may not copy or download more than 500 verses of the ESV Bible or more than one half of any book of the ESV Bible.

Scripture passages on the Site are served through the ESV API and are used by permission of Crossway. Read the ESV online at esv.org.

Giving and Payments

Gifts and event payments are made on our website and in our app, and processed by Stripe. Your card or bank account details go directly to Stripe and are never stored by us. Stripe’s own terms also apply to the payment. We email you a receipt for each gift.

Recurring gifts continue on the schedule you chose until you change or cancel them. You can change the amount or schedule, pause, resume, or cancel a recurring gift, and update the card it uses, at any time in My ABC (we email you a sign-in code), or by contacting the church office. A change takes effect from the next scheduled gift.

Refunds. Gifts to the church are generally not refundable. If you were charged twice for the same gift, or a gift was made in error, contact us and we will refund the duplicate or mistaken payment. If the church cancels your place at an event (or you ask us to and we agree), the amount you paid for that place is refunded to the card you used. Refunds are made through Stripe and usually reach your account within 5 to 10 business days.

Third-Party Links and Services

The Site may link to or rely on third-party websites and services. We do not control and are not responsible for their content, terms, or practices. Your use of those services is governed by their own terms.

Disclaimer

The Site and its content are provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied. We do not warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components. Content is offered for informational and spiritual encouragement and is not professional, legal, medical, or financial advice.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Alpine Bible Church and its staff, volunteers, and leaders will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the Site.

Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date above. Your continued use of the Site after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Utah, without regard to its conflict-of- law rules.
