Terms of Service — House of Prayer Mobile App

Last Updated: June 19, 2026 Effective: June 19, 2026

Developer: Magnolia Technology Consultants Contact: support@magnoliatcs.com

Scope of these terms. These Terms of Service cover only the House of Prayer mobile app for iOS and Android ("the App") and the server the App talks to. The Magnolia Technology Consultants website at hop.magnoliatcs.com (and any other Magnolia Technology Consultants website) is a separate product with its own terms. If something isn't covered here, it isn't done by the App.

In plain English

House of Prayer ("the App") is a private app for prayer groups. By using it, you're agreeing to a few common-sense rules: be respectful, don't post abusive or objectionable content, and understand that the App is provided as-is. We take abuse seriously — there is zero tolerance for objectionable content or abusive behavior, you can flag content or block people right inside the App, and we remove violating content and the people who post it. Your account is created for you by your group's administrator; you're responsible for what you do with it. If you ever disagree with these terms, the simplest answer is to stop using the App.

The rest of this document spells that out in detail so you (and the App Store) know exactly where you stand.

1. Agreement between you and us

These Terms are a legal agreement between you and Magnolia Technology Consultants ("we," "us," or "the Developer"), the company that builds and operates the App. By creating an account, signing in, or using the App in any way, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the App.

This agreement is between you and the Developer only — not Apple. Apple is not a party to these Terms and is not responsible for the App or its content (see Section 14 for the Apple-specific terms).

2. Who can use the App

The App is intended for members of private prayer groups who have been given an account by their group's administrator. There is no public self-registration — accounts are created and assigned by a group administrator. You must be at least 13 years old (or the minimum age of digital consent in your country, if higher) to use the App. By using the App you confirm that you meet this requirement and that the information associated with your account is accurate.

3. Your account

Your account is provisioned by your group's administrator and may be tied to an email and password or to Sign in with Apple. You are responsible for keeping your sign-in credentials secure and for all activity that happens under your account. Tell your administrator or contact us at support@magnoliatcs.com right away if you believe your account has been accessed without your permission. You may delete your account at any time from inside the App, as described in our Privacy Policy.

4. Your license to use the App

We grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the App on Apple-branded products that you own or control, and on Android devices, solely for your personal, non-commercial use within your prayer group, and in accordance with these Terms and the App Store Usage Rules. You may not:

copy, modify, or create derivative works of the App except as permitted by law;
reverse-engineer, decompile, or disassemble the App, or attempt to derive its source code, except to the limited extent applicable law permits;
rent, lease, lend, sell, redistribute, sublicense, or make the App available over a network where it could be used by multiple devices at once; or
remove or alter any proprietary notices in the App.

We reserve all rights not expressly granted to you.

5. Content you post

The App lets you post content — prayer requests, messages, profile information, photos, voice recordings, files, and similar material ("Your Content"). You keep ownership of Your Content. By posting it, you grant us a limited license to store, display, and transmit Your Content only as needed to operate the App and deliver it to the other members of your prayer group. We do not sell Your Content or use it for advertising.

You are solely responsible for Your Content and for making sure you have the right to post it. Do not post anything that is unlawful, infringes someone else's rights, or violates Section 6.

5.1 User-uploaded content

The App lets you and your group upload, store, and share your own files — such as song charts, documents, photos, voice recordings, and similar material. We do not control, monitor, review, manage, or curate this content, and we do not supply any song catalog, chart library, or other content of our own. You may only upload content that you own, that you created, that is in the public domain, or that you are otherwise properly licensed to use and share. Group administrators and leaders are responsible for the content uploaded by the members of their group. You are solely responsible for the content you and your group upload, and you agree not to hold us liable for it.

6. Community rules and acceptable use

The App is a space for prayer and encouragement. You agree not to use the App to:

post content that is harassing, threatening, hateful, defamatory, obscene, sexually explicit, or otherwise objectionable;
bully, abuse, stalk, intimidate, or harm another person;
impersonate any person or misrepresent your affiliation with anyone;
post spam, solicitations, or content unrelated to your prayer group;
share another person's private information without their consent;
upload viruses or malicious code, or attempt to disrupt or gain unauthorized access to the App or its systems; or
use the App in violation of any applicable law.

7. Zero tolerance for objectionable content and abusive users

We have zero tolerance for objectionable content and abusive behavior. To keep the community safe:

Flag content. You can report any message or post you find objectionable directly inside the App.
Block users. You can block another user at any time, which prevents them from interacting with you.
We act fast. We review reports of objectionable content and abusive behavior and aim to remove violating content and eject the user who posted it within 24 hours of becoming aware of it.

We may remove any content, and suspend or terminate any account, that violates these Terms — at our discretion and without prior notice. Submitting an abuse report does not guarantee a particular outcome, but every report is reviewed.

8. Privacy

Your use of the App is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which explains what information the App collects and how it is used. By using the App, you agree to the practices described there.

9. Third-party services

The App may rely on or link to services provided by third parties (for example, Apple's Sign in with Apple, and push-notification delivery). We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, or practices of third-party services, and your use of them is at your own risk and subject to their terms. We may change, suspend, or remove access to third-party services at any time without liability to you.

10. Disclaimers — the App is provided "as is"

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE APP IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. We do not warrant that the App will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, so some of these exclusions may not apply to you.

11. Limitation of liability

TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL WE BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE APP, REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY AND EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. In no event will our total liability to you for all claims exceed fifty dollars ($50.00). Some jurisdictions do not allow these limitations, so they may not fully apply to you.

12. Termination

These Terms remain in effect while you use the App. Your rights under these Terms end automatically if you fail to comply with them. We may suspend or terminate your access at any time, with or without notice, including for violations of Section 6 or 7. You may stop using the App and delete your account at any time. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including Sections 5, 10, 11, 14, and 15) will survive.

13. Export compliance

You may not use or export the App except as authorized by United States law and the laws of the jurisdiction where you obtained the App. You represent that you are not located in a U.S.-embargoed country or on any U.S. government restricted-party list, and that you will not use the App for any purpose prohibited by U.S. law.

14. Apple-specific terms

These additional terms apply when you use the App on an Apple device, as required by Apple:

a. Acknowledgement. These Terms are between you and the Developer only, not Apple. The Developer — not Apple — is solely responsible for the App and its content.
b. Scope of license. The license granted to you in Section 4 is limited to a non-transferable license to use the App on Apple-branded products that you own or control, as permitted by the App Store Usage Rules.
c. Maintenance and support. The Developer is solely responsible for providing any maintenance and support for the App. Apple has no obligation to furnish any maintenance or support.
d. Warranty. The Developer is solely responsible for any product warranties, whether express or implied, to the extent not effectively disclaimed. If the App fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price (if any) for the App; to the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation with respect to the App.
e. Product claims. The Developer, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claims relating to the App, including product-liability claims, claims that the App fails to conform to legal requirements, and claims arising under consumer-protection or similar laws.
f. Intellectual property. If a third party claims the App infringes its intellectual property rights, the Developer, not Apple, is solely responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement, and discharge of that claim.
g. Legal compliance. You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated as a "terrorist supporting" country, and that you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
h. Third-party beneficiary. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms, and upon your acceptance, Apple will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you as a third-party beneficiary.

15. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules, except where local consumer-protection law requires otherwise. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.

16. Changes to these terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last Updated" date above and post the updated Terms here. Your continued use of the App after the changes take effect means you accept the updated Terms.
