If you are under 18, or under the age of majority where you live, you may use the App only with the permission of a parent or guardian, who agrees to these Terms for you. Where your local law sets a higher age before you can agree to your data being processed on your own, a parent or guardian must also give that consent.

If you are using the App on behalf of a community or organization, you confirm you are authorized to do so.

You are responsible for keeping your account credentials secure and for everything that happens under your account.

You agree to give accurate information when you register, and to keep it current.

You agree to use it lawfully and respectfully, and not to misuse it, disrupt it, or try to get unauthorized access to it or its systems.

Some features let you share with other people: prayer requests, reflections, messages, and community posts.

• Be kind, respectful, and encouraging toward other members.
• Do not post content that is unlawful, hateful, harassing, deceptive, or sexually explicit, or that violates somebody else's rights or privacy.

We may remove content or restrict accounts that break these Terms, and community leaders may moderate content inside their own communities.

You keep ownership of what you create in the App: your reflections, your prayers, your posts.

By sharing content in a community or with another member, you give us a limited license to store, display, and distribute it inside the App so far as that is needed to provide the service. That license ends when the content is removed, except for copies other members already hold.

You are responsible for what you share, and you confirm you have the right to share it.

Thy Lantern offers spiritual content and community for encouragement and personal growth. It is not a substitute for professional medical, psychological, legal, or financial advice.

If you are in crisis, or you may be a danger to yourself or to someone else, please contact your local emergency services or a qualified professional right away.

The App relies on third parties, including Apple and Google for optional sign-in and for delivering push notifications. Your use of those services is subject to their own terms and privacy policies.

You can stop using the App whenever you like, and you can delete your account from inside the App or from this website.

We may suspend or end access if you break these Terms, or to protect the App and the people in it. Where it is reasonable to do so, we will tell you first.

The App is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, to the fullest extent the law allows. We do not warrant that it will be uninterrupted, error free, or secure.

To the fullest extent the law allows, SMART VUE CONSULTS LLC will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of the App.

We may update these Terms. If a change is material, we will take reasonable steps to tell you in the App. Carrying on using it after a change takes effect means you accept the updated Terms.
