Terms of Service

Effective date: May 21, 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the Doxus websites doxus.org and app.doxus.org (the "Service"). By using the Service you agree to these Terms.

1. The Service

Doxus catalogs sermons from Christian churches and ministries that have made their content publicly available. We add searchable transcripts, study guides, and other AI-generated context. Watching and searching are free. Some features (such as channel management for ministries) require a paid plan.

2. Who can use Doxus

You must be at least 13 years old to use the Service. By using Doxus you represent that you meet this requirement and that any information you give us is accurate.

3. Accounts

Most of the Service works without an account. If you create one, you are responsible for keeping your credentials safe and for activity that happens under your account. Authentication is handled by Clerk; see our Privacy Policy for what data is collected.

4. Content ownership

Sermons, videos, transcripts of speech, and other source material remain the property of the originating church, ministry, or speaker. Doxus does not claim ownership of that content; we provide a tool to discover, index, and study it. Our own additions — the catalog structure, AI-generated study guides, summaries, embeddings, and platform code — belong to Doxus.

5. Acceptable use

Don't use the Service to:

  • Violate any law or the rights of others (including copyright);
  • Scrape, mirror, or republish our catalog data at scale without permission;
  • Attempt to break, overload, or probe the security of the Service;
  • Upload, post, or transmit malware or any content that is unlawful, harassing, or harmful to minors;
  • Impersonate anyone or misrepresent your affiliation with a person or organization.

6. AI-generated content

Transcripts, summaries, and study guides on Doxus are generated by automated systems. They may contain errors, mis-hearings, or paraphrases that do not perfectly match the spoken content. They are aids for study, not authoritative records — always verify against the original sermon. Doxus does not warrant their accuracy or doctrinal correctness.

7. Third-party content and links

Videos play through YouTube's embedded player and are subject to YouTube's terms. We may link to external study tools, Bible versions, or church websites; we are not responsible for content on sites we don't control.

8. Disclaimers

The Service is provided "as is" without warranty of any kind, express or implied. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that it will meet your specific needs.

9. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Doxus will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of data, use, or goodwill, arising out of your use of the Service.

10. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access if you violate these Terms. You may stop using the Service at any time; if you have an account, you can delete it from your preferences page.

11. Changes

We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be posted here with a new effective date. Continued use of the Service means you accept the updated Terms.

12. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Federative Republic of Brazil. Disputes will be resolved in the courts of São Paulo, SP, Brazil, unless a different forum is required by a consumer-protection law that applies to you.
