Terms of Service

About these terms

These terms are an agreement between you and Elvio Luján (“we”, “us”), who runs Himnia, an online service for presenting songs, Scripture, media and announcements in church services.

By creating an account or using Himnia you accept these terms. If you use Himnia for a church or another organization, you confirm that you're allowed to accept them on its behalf.

Your account

You sign in with Google, Microsoft or Facebook, or with a link we email you; we never see a password. You must be at least 16 years old to have an account.

Keep your account secure and tell us if you think someone else is using it. You're responsible for what happens in your account. A church's Owners and Admins decide who is a member of the church and what each member can do.

Plans and payment

Himnia has a free plan and paid plans. Each plan's limits (members, venues, storage, screens live at a time, image and video sizes) and price are shown on the Pricing page.

Our order process is conducted by our online reseller Paddle.com. Paddle.com is the Merchant of Record for all our orders. Paddle provides all customer service inquiries and handles returns. Paddle calculates and collects any sales tax or VAT that applies where you are.

Paid plans are subscriptions that renew automatically, every month or every year, until you cancel. You can cancel at any time in Settings → Plan & usage: your plan keeps working until the end of the period you've paid for, and then the church moves to the free plan.

If we change a price, we'll tell you before it applies; the new price only applies from your next renewal.

Plan limits

If a church is over a limit after moving to a smaller plan, it can't add more of that thing until it's back under the limit. Media is the one exception: the files added first are kept up to the new plan's storage, and the files added last are locked (they can't be shown or used) and deleted 30 days later, unless the church moves to a plan with enough storage before then. We email the church's Owners and Admins when files are locked and again a week before they are deleted.

To stay within a plan's limits, images and videos larger than the plan allows may be reduced in size when they're uploaded, and videos bigger than the plan allows can't be uploaded.

Your content

You keep ownership of everything you add to Himnia: songs, lyrics, images, videos, sounds, fonts, slides and everything else.

You allow us to store, copy, convert (for example, to reduce an image's size) and show your content, only as needed to run Himnia for you and the people you share it with.

You're responsible for having the rights to what you add and show. Many song lyrics need a license, such as a CCLI license, to be projected; fonts and media need a license that allows this use. We may remove content that breaks the law or these terms.

Your church's people (data processing)

For what a church adds about its members and the people on its teams, the church decides what is collected and why, and we process it only on the church's behalf and instructions, to run Himnia. This section is our data processing agreement with the church.

We keep that data confidential and only let people who need it to run Himnia see it; we protect it as the Privacy Policy describes; we use only the providers listed there, under the same duties; we help the church answer people's requests about their data; we tell the church without undue delay about any breach that affects it; and we delete it when the church asks or closes its account, within 30 days, except what the law requires us to keep.

The church is responsible for having a valid reason and, where needed, permission to add people's data, including a parent's or guardian's permission to list anyone under 16.

Content we provide

Himnia includes a public library (for example, public-domain hymns and backgrounds) and Bible translations. Each item comes with the license or attribution shown with it, and some are only available on certain plans. Bible text provided by third parties is also subject to their terms.

You may copy library items into your church and edit the copies. You may not take the library as a whole to offer it somewhere else.

Acceptable use

Don't use Himnia to break the law or anyone's rights; to upload harmful software; to try to reach another church's data or get around security or plan limits; to overload the service; or to resell Himnia without our written permission.

Availability

We work to keep Himnia running and reliable, and a presentation keeps running through a dropped connection wherever possible, but we can't promise the service will always be available or free of errors. Himnia is provided “as is”, and there may be maintenance or outages.

Keep your own copies of material that matters to you.

Liability

As far as the law allows, we're not liable for indirect or consequential losses (such as lost data, income or opportunities), and our total liability for any claim is limited to what you paid us in the 12 months before it.

Nothing in these terms limits rights that the consumer law of your country gives you and that can't be waived.

Ending

You can stop using Himnia at any time and delete your account yourself (click your name, then “Delete my account”), or ask us to delete it.

We may suspend or close an account that seriously or repeatedly breaks these terms. We'll tell you why when we can, and give you a chance to take your content out unless the law prevents it.

An Owner can close a church in Settings → Church: its content and the data it added are deleted 30 days later, and until then any Owner can keep it. A paid plan stops renewing when the church is closed. The Owner can download everything first.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. For important changes we'll let you know by email or in the app at least 30 days before they apply. If you keep using Himnia after that, the new terms apply.

Applicable law

These terms are governed by the laws of Argentina. If you're a consumer, you also keep the protections of the law of the country where you live.
