Terms of Service and End User License Agreement
1. Introduction
Welcome to the Bible Flows application (the "App"). This App is published by or on behalf of Data Driven Development FZ-LLC (the "Company," "we," "us," or "our") with a registered address at DMC-BLD05-VD-G00–491, Dubai Internet City, Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
By downloading, accessing, or using the App, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and End User License Agreement ("Terms"). These Terms apply to all users of the App.
2. Eligibility
The App is not directed at children under 13, and you may not use the App if you are under 13. If you are between 13 and the age of majority in your jurisdiction, you may use the App only with the involvement and consent of a parent or legal guardian. By using the App, you represent that you meet these requirements.
The App does not require you to create an account. It signs you in anonymously so that your daily entries can be associated with your device. You are responsible for the device on which the App is installed, and you understand that anyone with access to your unlocked device can access the App and anything stored in it.
3. Acceptance of Terms
By using the App, you are agreeing to these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use the App. We reserve the right to modify or amend these Terms from time to time. Your continued use of the App following the posting of changes to these Terms will mean you accept those changes.
4. Privacy
Your use of the App is also subject to our Privacy Notice, which explains what information we collect and how it is processed — including the fact that text you write in the App is sent to third-party artificial intelligence providers in order to generate devotional content. Please read it before using the App.
5. Scope of License
The Company grants you a revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, limited license to download, install, and use the App on a device that you own or control, solely for your personal, non-commercial purposes, strictly in accordance with these Terms.
This license does not permit you to, and you agree not to: rent, lease, lend, sell, redistribute, or sublicense the App; copy, decompile, reverse engineer, disassemble, or attempt to derive the source code of the App, except to the extent such restriction is prohibited by applicable law; or remove, alter, or obscure any proprietary notice, including any copyright or attribution notice relating to scripture text.
6. AI-Generated Content — Not Professional, Medical, Psychological, or Crisis Care
This is the most important provision in these Terms. Please read it carefully.
The devotional and reflective content the App produces in response to what you write is generated automatically by artificial intelligence ("AI-Generated Content"). It is produced by third-party large language models, it is generated on demand, and it is not written, reviewed, verified, or approved by any human being — including any pastor, counselor, clinician, or member of our team — before you see it.
You acknowledge and agree that AI-Generated Content:
- Is provided for personal reflection and general spiritual encouragement only;
- May be inaccurate, incomplete, misleading, theologically imprecise, or inappropriate to your circumstances;
- May misquote, misattribute, or misapply scripture, and should not be relied upon as an authoritative statement of the text or of any doctrine;
- Is not medical, psychological, psychiatric, therapeutic, or health advice, diagnosis, or treatment;
- Is not professional pastoral counseling, spiritual direction, or religious ruling;
- Is not crisis intervention, emergency assistance, or suicide-prevention care;
- Is not legal, financial, or any other form of professional advice.
The App is not a medical device, is not a healthcare service, and is not a substitute for a relationship with a qualified professional or a faith community. Always seek the advice of a qualified health provider, licensed mental health professional, or trusted spiritual leader with any questions you may have regarding a medical, psychological, or spiritual condition. Never disregard professional advice, or delay seeking it, because of something you read in the App.
You are solely responsible for any decision you make or action you take on the basis of AI-Generated Content, and you use it entirely at your own risk.
7. Crisis Situations and Emergencies
The App is not an emergency service and must never be used as one. If you are in immediate danger, are thinking about harming yourself or someone else, or are otherwise experiencing a medical or safety emergency, stop using the App and contact your local emergency number or a crisis helpline in your country immediately.
The App includes an automated safety check that scans what you write for a narrow set of phrases suggesting self-harm or acute danger and, when one is detected, shows support resources instead of generating content. You acknowledge that this check is automated and keyword-based, is not a clinical or diagnostic screen, was not designed by clinicians as a risk assessment, and will not detect every expression of distress, particularly where distress is expressed obliquely, in another language, or in words the check does not recognize. We make no representation that any crisis will be detected, and we do not monitor what you write in real time, do not review submissions, and will not contact you, emergency services, or anyone else on your behalf. Any crisis resources shown in the App are provided for convenience only, may not be available in your country, and are not operated by us.
8. User Content
The App asks you a short set of questions about how you are feeling and what is on your mind, some of which you answer by writing freely in your own words, and it may ask you to name a person you wish to hold in mind. Everything you submit through the App is your "User Content," and you are solely responsible for it.
If you enter another person's name or details, you confirm that you have a lawful basis for sharing that information with us and that you have that person's consent where one is required.
You agree not to submit User Content that: is unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, defamatory, obscene, or hateful; infringes the intellectual property or privacy rights of any person; contains another identifiable person's personal, medical, or financial information; or contains credentials, payment card numbers, or government identifiers.
You retain ownership of your User Content. You grant us a limited, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, transmit, and process your User Content, and to transmit it to our third-party AI providers, solely for the purpose of operating the App and generating content for you. This license exists only to let us run the service and ends when the relevant information is deleted in accordance with our Privacy Notice. We do not use your User Content to train AI models, and we do not permit our AI providers to use it to train theirs.
9. Acceptable Use
You agree to use the App in compliance with all applicable laws, and you agree not to:
- Use the App for any unlawful, harmful, deceptive, or fraudulent purpose;
- Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the App, our servers, our APIs, or any other user's data;
- Interfere with, disrupt, overload, or place undue burden on the App or its supporting infrastructure, including through automated scraping, bulk requests, or denial-of-service activity;
- Use the App to generate content that violates the usage policies of our AI providers, or attempt to manipulate the App into producing harmful, illegal, or abusive output;
- Use the App, its output, or the scripture text it contains to build, train, or evaluate any competing product, dataset, or machine learning model;
- Redistribute, republish, or commercially exploit content obtained from the App.
We may suspend or terminate your access to the App at any time, without notice, if we reasonably believe you have violated these Terms or that your use poses a risk to us or to others.
10. Intellectual Property Rights
Except for your User Content and for the scripture text described in Section 11, the App and all materials in it or transferred by it — including software, images, illustrations, text, graphics, logos, trademarks, service marks, copyrights, prompts, and all intellectual property rights related to them — are the exclusive property of Data Driven Development FZ-LLC and its licensors.
You acknowledge and agree that you shall not use, reproduce, or distribute any content from the App belonging to Data Driven Development FZ-LLC without first obtaining our authorization.
11. Scripture Text and Attributions
The App makes Bible translations available to you subject to the rights of their respective copyright holders. Your license to use the App does not grant you any right to reproduce or redistribute this text beyond your personal use within the App.

12. Third-Party Content and Services
The App depends on third-party services, including cloud infrastructure provided by Google (Firebase and Google Cloud), artificial intelligence providers, and a third-party host from which Bible chapter audio is streamed. We do not control these services, and we are not responsible for their availability, performance, content, or practices. Your use of any third-party service reached through the App may be governed by that third party's own terms.
The App requires an internet connection for devotional generation and for streaming audio. Offline Bible reading is available, but generated content is not. We do not guarantee that the App will be available at all times or without interruption, and we may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of it, including any feature or translation, at any time.
13. No Warranty
The App is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis, without any warranty or condition, express, implied, or statutory. Data Driven Development FZ-LLC specifically disclaims any implied warranties of title, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
Without limiting the foregoing, we make no warranty that the App will meet your requirements, be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free, or that any AI-Generated Content will be accurate, appropriate, doctrinally sound, or suitable for your circumstances. Data Driven Development FZ-LLC assumes no liability or responsibility for any (i) errors, mistakes, or inaccuracies in any content, including AI-Generated Content and scripture rendering; (ii) personal injury, emotional distress, or property damage of any nature resulting from your access to or use of the App or your reliance on any content within it; (iii) any failure of the automated safety check described in Section 7 to detect distress; or (iv) any unauthorized access to or use of our servers and any information stored on them.
14. Limitation of Liability
You agree that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, your sole and exclusive remedy for any problem with or dissatisfaction with the App is to uninstall the App and stop using it.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, in no event will Data Driven Development FZ-LLC, its officers, shareholders, employees, agents, directors, subsidiaries, affiliates, successors, assigns, suppliers, or licensors be liable for (i) any indirect, special, incidental, punitive, exemplary, or consequential damages; or (ii) any loss of use, data, business, goodwill, or profits, whether direct or indirect, in each case arising out of or relating to the use of or inability to use the App or reliance on any content within it, regardless of legal theory, whether or not we have been warned of the possibility of such damages, and even if a remedy fails of its essential purpose.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the App or these Terms will not exceed the greater of the amount you paid us for the App in the twelve months preceding the claim, or ten United States dollars (USD 10.00).
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation of liability for incidental or consequential damages, so some of the above limitations may not apply to you. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or for any other liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law.
15. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Data Driven Development FZ-LLC and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of or in any way connected with your User Content, your use of the App, or your violation of these Terms or of any applicable law.
16. Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its principles of conflicts of law. You agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in or for Delaware for the purpose of litigating all such disputes.
17. Changes to the Terms
Data Driven Development FZ-LLC reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to modify or replace these Terms at any time. If a revision is material, we will provide at least 30 days notice prior to any new terms taking effect. What constitutes a material change will be determined at our sole discretion.
By continuing to access or use the App after those revisions become effective, you agree to be bound by the revised Terms. If you do not agree to the new Terms, you must stop using the App.
18. Severability and Entire Agreement
If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect. Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be considered a waiver of it. These Terms, together with the Privacy Notice, constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the App.
