Terms of Service

1. Acceptance

By signing into brethrenss.org or purchasing any workbook, you agree to these Terms of Service and the linked Privacy Policy and Refunds Policy.

2. Account & authentication

Access requires authentication via Google Sign-In or email one-time code. You are responsible for keeping your authenticated session secure and for the accuracy of the full name on your profile — that name is used in the watermark on every PDF you download.

3. Licence to downloaded workbooks

Each workbook is licensed for the personal use of the buyer's Sunday School teaching or study. Every page is watermarked with the buyer's name, email, order number, and purchase date. Redistribution is not permitted. Sharing or republishing watermarked PDFs may result in account suspension and, in cases of bulk redistribution, legal action under applicable copyright law.

4. Download window

Paid workbooks remain downloadable for one (1) month from the date of purchase. After that window expires, the download link is retired; the workbook does not unlock again automatically. Please save your PDF somewhere safe within that month.

If you lose your files after the window has closed, email the receipt for your last purchase to [email protected] and we will issue a one-time download link.

Orders placed before 8 August 2026 keep the three (3) year window under which they were sold.

5. Refunds

See the Refunds and Cancellation Policy. Digital products are non-refundable. Corrupted-file complaints are addressed by issuing a fresh download link.

6. Intellectual property

Copyright in each workbook belongs to its respective publisher (Thompson Consulting, FIBA, Suvisheshayalam, or similar Brethren ministry publisher). brethrenss.org is the licensed retailer, not the rights-holder.

7. Acceptable use

Abuse detection runs daily. Accounts flagged for unusual download patterns (multiple geographies, very high download counts, repeated signed-URL generation within seconds) may be suspended pending review.

8. Limitation of liability

brethrenss.org provides workbooks "as is". To the maximum extent permitted by law, the platform's liability is limited to the amount paid for the affected workbook.

9. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of India. Disputes are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Pune, Maharashtra.
