Service Availability
We aim to provide reliable access to our platform, but uninterrupted availability is not guaranteed. Maintenance, outages, third-party failures, hosting issues, updates, or events outside our control may affect service continuity.

Some features may require a paid subscription or trial registration. If you purchase a service, your subscription, billing cycle, renewal terms, refunds, and cancellation rules will be governed by the applicable order terms or agreement.
Third-Party Services
SWAPP may integrate with external providers for hosting, analytics, communications, payments, or other functions. We are not responsible for third-party websites, tools, policies, or failures, even if they are used alongside our platform.

All original SWAPP branding, interface elements, software architecture, written content, designs, graphics, and related materials remain protected by applicable intellectual property laws unless otherwise stated in writing.
Feedback and Suggestions
If you send ideas, recommendations, or improvements, you grant us the right to use such submissions without obligation, unless a separate written agreement provides otherwise.
Termination Rights
We may suspend or terminate access to SWAPP if we believe terms have been violated, if required by law, or if continued access could create a security, legal, or operational risk to the platform or its users.
Compliance, Security, and Liability
Church and ministry software often handles sensitive administrative data. We encourage all users to implement sound internal controls, review permissions regularly, and understand the legal responsibilities that come with digital records management.
Security Best Practices
Use strong passwords, limit user permissions, and train staff on secure handling of member and donor information. No system can eliminate all risk, so operational vigilance remains essential.
Compliance Considerations
Your organization may be subject to privacy, tax, charitable solicitation, recordkeeping, accessibility, employment, or consent requirements depending on jurisdiction and use case.
Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, SWAPP is not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages arising from use of the site, services, or any linked third-party tools.
