These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Simple Hymn mobile application (the “App”). By accessing or using the App, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the App.
1. Description of the Service
Simple Hymn is a digital hymnal app that allows users to create, save, organize, view, import, export, synchronize, back up, and share albums, songs, lyrics, chords, notes, covers, and related content.
The App may include local storage, account-based features, cloud backup, synchronization across devices, sharing tools, ads, subscriptions, in-app purchases, or premium features.

You must use the App in compliance with applicable laws, platform rules, and these Terms. If you are under the age required to consent in your jurisdiction, you may use the App only with permission from a parent or legal guardian.
3. Accounts
Some features may require an account, including backup, synchronization, account recovery, premium benefits, or access across devices. You are responsible for keeping your account credentials secure and for all activity that occurs under your account.
You must provide accurate information and keep it up to date. We may suspend or restrict access if we detect misuse, fraud, security risks, or violations of these Terms.
4. User Content
- Ownership: You retain ownership of content you create, import, save, upload, synchronize, export, or share through the App.
- Responsibility: You are solely responsible for your content, including albums, songs, lyrics, hymns, chords, notes, covers, files, and any related material.
- License to operate the App: You grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, process, transmit, display, back up, synchronize, and make your content available as needed to provide the App’s functionality.
- Shared content: If you share, export, publish, or send content through the App, you are responsible for making sure you have the right to do so.
5. Copyright and Third-Party Rights
The App provides tools to save, organize, view, synchronize, and share hymnal content. The App does not provide, grant, or transfer rights to copyrighted songs, lyrics, hymns, chords, images, books, files, or other third-party materials.
If you add, import, copy, edit, synchronize, export, publish, or share copyrighted material, you are solely responsible for having the necessary rights, licenses, permissions, or legal basis to do so.
We are not responsible for unauthorized use of copyrighted material by users. Any copyright infringement or misuse of protected content is the responsibility of the user who creates, imports, stores, uploads, synchronizes, exports, publishes, or shares that content.
6. Importing, Exporting, and Sharing
The App may allow you to import, export, open, or share albums, songs, lyrics, chords, or files using Android system features or external apps installed on your device.
When you share or export content outside the App, that content may be handled by third-party apps, services, or recipients. We are not responsible for how third parties store, use, modify, distribute, or delete content after you share it.
7. Cloud Backup and Synchronization
Account-based features may allow your albums, songs, lyrics, chords, metadata, preferences, and related content to be backed up or synchronized through cloud services.
You are responsible for reviewing your content before uploading or synchronizing it. We may apply technical limits, storage limits, synchronization rules, abuse prevention systems, or content management measures to keep the service stable and secure.
8. Purchases, Subscriptions, Ads, and Premium Features
The App may include ads, in-app purchases, subscriptions, or premium features. Purchases and subscriptions are processed through Google Play Billing and are subject to Google Play terms and policies.
Prices, billing periods, renewals, cancellations, refunds, and available benefits are shown at purchase time or inside the App when applicable. We do not store your full payment details.
Premium features, usage limits, ad removal, backup limits, sync limits, or other benefits may vary by plan and may change over time, subject to applicable law and platform rules.
9. Acceptable Use
You agree not to use the App to:
- Violate copyright, trademark, privacy, publicity, or other rights of third parties.
- Store, upload, synchronize, export, publish, or share content you do not have the right to use.
- Distribute illegal, harmful, abusive, misleading, defamatory, hateful, or otherwise unlawful content.
- Upload or distribute malware, harmful files, or content designed to interfere with systems or devices.
- Bypass security, abuse limits, manipulate billing, interfere with the App, or access non-public parts of the service.
- Reverse engineer, decompile, modify, copy, resell, or exploit protected parts of the App except where allowed by law.
- Use the App in a way that harms other users, the service, or third parties.
10. Content Moderation and Enforcement
We may remove, restrict, disable, or refuse to host content if we believe it violates these Terms, infringes third-party rights, creates security risks, causes operational issues, or is required to be removed by law or platform policy.
We may suspend or terminate accounts, restrict features, or limit access if we detect abuse, fraud, repeated violations, or risks to the App, users, or service infrastructure.
11. Backups and Data Loss
You are responsible for keeping your own backup copies of important content. Although the App may provide export, backup, or synchronization features, we do not guarantee that content can always be recovered.
Content may be lost due to user deletion, device failure, app uninstallation, account issues, sync conflicts, technical errors, storage limits, service interruptions, or third-party platform behavior.
12. Intellectual Property of the App
The App, including its software, design, interface, branding, logos, structure, features, and original materials, is owned by us or our licensors and is protected by applicable intellectual property laws.
These Terms do not grant you ownership of the App, source code, branding, design, or proprietary elements. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, rent, sublicense, or create derivative works from the App except where permitted by law.
13. Third-Party Services
The App may interact with third-party services such as Google Play, Firebase, AdMob, Android sharing tools, external apps, cloud services, or billing providers. Your use of those services may be subject to their own terms and privacy policies.
We are not responsible for third-party services, their availability, their content, their policies, or their handling of information outside our control.
14. Service Availability and Changes
The App is provided on an “as available” basis. We may update, modify, suspend, remove, or discontinue features to improve the App, maintain security, comply with law, manage costs, or support technical operation.
We do not guarantee that all features will be available permanently, uninterrupted, error-free, or compatible with every device or Android version.
15. Disclaimers
The App is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind to the maximum extent permitted by law. We do not guarantee that user content is accurate, legal, authorized, complete, available, or error-free.
The App is a tool for organizing and managing hymnal content. It is not a legal rights management service, copyright verification service, music licensing service, or official source of copyrighted materials.
16. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for loss of data, content, revenue, profits, goodwill, or business opportunities arising from or related to your use of the App.
We are not responsible for user content, copyright violations by users, data loss, third-party services, device issues, shared content, exported files, sync conflicts, or unauthorized use of materials by other users.
17. Termination
You may stop using the App at any time. We may suspend, restrict, or terminate access to the App or specific features if you violate these Terms, create legal or security risks, abuse the service, or if required by law or platform policy.
Termination may affect access to account-based features, cloud content, premium benefits, or synchronized data, subject to applicable law and the App’s retention practices.
18. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms to reflect changes in the App, new features, legal requirements, platform requirements, or operational needs. We will update the effective date when changes are made. Continued use of the App after changes means you accept the updated Terms.
