Terms & Conditions

1. About this website

This website is provided for United Shalom Pentecostal Church (“USPC”, “we”, “us” or “our”) in the United Kingdom. It provides information about USPC churches, ministries, events, media and ways to contact the church.

2. Acceptance of these terms

By using this website, you agree to use it lawfully and in accordance with these Terms & Conditions. If you do not agree with these terms, you should stop using the website.

3. Church and event information

We aim to keep church locations, service information, events, office-bearer details and other website content accurate and current.

Church activities and arrangements can change, however, and website information should not be treated as a guarantee that an event, service or activity will take place exactly as displayed.

Where attendance depends on a particular time, venue or arrangement, visitors should confirm the current details where appropriate.

4. Pastoral and prayer enquiries

The website provides a way to contact USPC for prayer, pastoral and general enquiries.

Submission of a message does not create a professional, counselling, medical or legal relationship, nor does it guarantee an immediate response.

The website and contact form must not be used as an emergency service. Anyone facing an immediate risk to life or safety should contact the appropriate emergency services.

5. Acceptable use

You must not use the website or its forms to:

• send unlawful, threatening, abusive, discriminatory, sexually explicit, malicious, fraudulent or spam content;
• introduce malware or harmful code;
• attempt unauthorised access to the website or its systems;
• interfere with the website’s operation;
• impersonate another person;
• use automated systems to abuse website facilities.

The contact form may automatically reject links, suspected automated submissions and inappropriate content.

6. Media and photographs

USPC may publish photographs, videos and links to albums or recordings relating to church services, conferences, worship and other activities.

Copyright and other rights in such material remain with the relevant rights holder. Website publication does not grant permission to commercially reproduce, alter or redistribute material unless permission has been expressly given.

If you have a legitimate concern about an image or other media item involving you or a person for whom you are responsible, contact USPC with sufficient information to identify the material so the concern can be considered.

7. Intellectual property

Unless otherwise stated, the website design, text, branding, graphics and original content are protected by applicable intellectual-property law.

Content may be viewed and used for ordinary personal and church-information purposes. Material must not be copied, republished, sold or commercially exploited without permission where permission is legally required.

8. External websites and embedded services

The website may link to or embed third-party services such as YouTube, Google Maps, social-media platforms and external photo albums.

These services are operated independently and have their own terms and privacy practices. A link or embed does not mean USPC controls or accepts responsibility for everything available through that third-party service.

9. Website availability

We may update, suspend or withdraw any part of the website without notice.

We do not guarantee that the website will always be available, uninterrupted, error-free or free from every technical or security issue.

10. Liability

Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability where doing so would be unlawful.

Subject to that, the website is primarily an informational church resource. USPC is not responsible for losses arising solely from reliance on information that has become outdated, third-party services outside our control, or temporary website unavailability, to the extent permitted by law.

11. Privacy

Personal information submitted through this website is handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy. Visitors using the contact form should read that policy before submitting personal information.

12. Changes to these terms

We may revise these Terms & Conditions to reflect changes to the website, USPC activities or applicable requirements.

The latest version published on this page applies to use of the website from the date shown above.

13. Governing law

These website terms are governed by the applicable laws of the United Kingdom, subject to any mandatory legal rights or jurisdictional rules that apply to a particular user or circumstance.
