11. Third-Party Services and Integrations

Except for the limited license expressly granted to you under these Terms, no rights, title, or interest in or to the Service or Stop Six IP are granted to you, whether by implication, estoppel, or otherwise. You may not remove, obscure, or alter any proprietary notices, branding, or trademarks appearing on the Site or in the Service.

You may provide feedback, suggestions, or ideas regarding the Service. By doing so, you grant Stop Six a non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free license to use, modify, and incorporate such feedback into the Service or other products without obligation or compensation to you.

13. Service Availability, Changes, and Beta Features

Stop Six endeavors to provide the Service in a reliable, secure manner but does not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, timely, or error-free. Maintenance, updates, and upgrades may result in temporary downtime or reduced functionality.

Stop Six may modify, enhance, or discontinue the Site or Service, in whole or in part, at any time. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid materially adverse impacts on core functionality for existing customers, but we reserve the right to adjust features and offerings as needed.

Stop Six may, from time to time, make new or experimental features available that are identified as “beta,” “preview,” or similar. Such features may be made available for evaluation purposes only, may be subject to additional terms, and are provided “as is” without commitments or guarantees.

14. Data Retention, Backups, and Export

Stop Six implements reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect Customer Data and maintain backups of systems supporting the Service. However, you are responsible for maintaining your own backup copies of critical data, reports, and records where necessary for your church or organization’s requirements.

Upon termination of your subscription, Stop Six may retain Customer Data for a limited period to allow for data export, as specified in an applicable agreement or communicated through the Service (for example, 30–90 days). After the applicable retention or export period, Stop Six may delete or anonymize Customer Data in accordance with its data management practices and applicable law.

Stop Six may provide tools to export Customer Data in standard formats (for example, CSV or similar) to assist with your transition to other systems. Data export may be subject to technical limitations and, in some circumstances, additional fees.

15. Termination and Suspension

You may terminate your subscription by following the cancellation instructions within the Service or by contacting Stop Six as described in the “Contact Us” section, subject to any minimum terms, notice periods, or additional conditions stated in your subscription or written agreement.

Stop Six may suspend or terminate your access to the Site or Service, in whole or in part, if:

  • You fail to pay applicable fees when due.

  • You materially breach these Terms or any other policies incorporated herein.

  • Your use of the Service creates a security risk, operational burden, or legal exposure for Stop Six.

  • Stop Six is required to do so by law, regulation, or government order.

If Stop Six suspends your access, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to notify you and restore access once the underlying issue is resolved. Termination does not relieve you of any obligation to pay outstanding fees and does not entitle you to a refund unless expressly stated in a separate written agreement.

16. Disclaimer of Warranties

THE SITE AND SERVICE ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, STOP SIX EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

STOP SIX DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SITE OR SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, SECURE, OR FREE FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS, OR THAT CUSTOMER DATA WILL BE PRESERVED WITHOUT LOSS OR CORRUPTION. YOUR USE OF THE SITE AND SERVICE IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK.

17. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL STOP SIX OR ITS OWNERS, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OR LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUES, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SITE OR SERVICE, EVEN IF STOP SIX HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, STOP SIX’S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR YOUR USE OF THE SITE OR SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT PAID BY YOU TO STOP SIX FOR ACCESS TO THE SERVICE DURING THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRIOR TO THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES OR WARRANTIES. IN SUCH CASES, STOP SIX’S LIABILITY WILL BE LIMITED TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

18. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Stop Six and its owners, officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any and all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or related to:

21. Miscellaneous

  • Entire Agreement. These Terms, together with any order forms, subscription agreements, and policies referenced herein (including the Privacy Policy), constitute the entire agreement between you and Stop Six regarding the Site and Service and supersede all prior or contemporaneous agreements, representations, or understandings.

  • Severability. If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible, and the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.

  • Waiver. Any failure or delay by Stop Six in enforcing any provision of these Terms will not constitute a waiver of that provision or any other provision.

  • Assignment. You may not assign, transfer, or delegate these Terms or any rights or obligations hereunder without Stop Six’s prior written consent. Stop Six may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, corporate reorganization, sale of assets, or other transaction.

23.6 Effect of Refunds and Cancellations
When a refund is granted or a subscription is canceled, Stop Six may revoke or limit access to the Service and any related features as of the effective date of the refund or the end of the applicable billing period.
