Terms of Service

Effective Date: January 16, 2026

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using the Apostolic Path platform ("Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not access or use the Service. These Terms apply to all users of the Service, including church administrators, leaders, teachers, and students.

2. Description of Service

Apostolic Path is a cloud-based software-as-a-service (SaaS) discipleship tracking platform designed for Apostolic churches. The Service helps churches track students through the New Birth journey, manage Bible studies, and monitor progress through First Steps discipleship curriculum.

The platform uses a multi-tenant architecture in which each church operates within its own isolated environment. Church data is scoped and separated so that one church's information is never accessible to another church.

3. Account Registration

To use the Service, you must create an account and provide accurate, complete, and current information. Each individual may maintain only one account. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account.

Church administrators are responsible for managing user accounts within their church and ensuring that all users added to their church comply with these Terms.

4. User Roles and Responsibilities

The Service provides the following user roles, each with different levels of access and responsibility:

  • Platform Admin — Manages the overall platform, including church accounts and system configuration.
  • Admin — Manages their church's account, users, settings, and data within the platform.
  • Leader — Oversees discipleship activities, teachers, and student progress within their church.
  • Teacher — Conducts Bible studies and records student progress.
  • Student — Participates in Bible studies and the discipleship journey.

Church administrators are responsible for assigning appropriate roles and managing access within their church. Each user is expected to use the Service in accordance with the permissions granted by their role.

5. Acceptable Use

  • Use the Service for any purpose other than church discipleship management and tracking.

6. Data Ownership

Churches retain full ownership of all data they enter into the Service, including student records, Bible study information, discipleship progress, and any other church-specific content. Apostolic Path acts as a data processor on behalf of each church.

All church data is scoped to the individual church account and is not shared with, sold to, or accessible by other churches or third parties, except as required by law or as described in our Privacy Policy.

8. Payment Terms

The Service is offered on a subscription basis. A free tier is available with limited features. Paid subscription plans are billed according to the pricing and terms presented at the time of purchase.

All fees are non-refundable unless otherwise stated in the specific terms of your subscription plan. Apostolic Path reserves the right to modify pricing with reasonable notice to subscribers.
