Effective Date: August 16, 2026

Welcome to the website and online store of Ancestral Waters & Sacred Fire Church. These Terms and Conditions govern your access to and use of our website, online store, digital materials, and other services made available through the website.

By accessing or using the website or purchasing a product through the online store, you agree to these Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree with these terms, please discontinue use of the website.

1. PURPOSE OF THE WEBSITE

The website of Ancestral Waters & Sacred Fire Church provides information concerning the Church, its mission, ministries, teachings, sermons, gatherings, educational resources, publications, and related activities.

The website may also provide access to an online store through which digital products, publications, educational materials, and other resources may be offered.

2. WEBSITE USE

You may use this website for lawful personal, informational, educational, and other authorized purposes.

You may not use the website to interfere with its operation or security; attempt unauthorized access to accounts, systems, or data; distribute malicious software; engage in fraudulent or unlawful activity; misrepresent your identity or relationship with the Church; or use the website in a manner that infringes the rights of the Church or others.

3. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

Unless otherwise stated, the original content appearing on this website—including text, teachings, publications, educational materials, graphics, logos, artwork, photographs, audio, video, downloadable materials, and other original content—is owned by or used with authorization by Ancestral Waters & Sacred Fire Church or the applicable rights holder.

All applicable intellectual-property rights are reserved.

Except as expressly authorized, website content may not be reproduced, republished, distributed, sold, licensed, commercially exploited, modified, or presented as another person's or organization's work without appropriate authorization.

Downloading or purchasing a digital product does not transfer ownership of the underlying copyright or other intellectual-property rights.

4. DIGITAL PRODUCTS AND LICENSE

Digital products purchased or downloaded through our online store are provided for the purchaser's personal use unless the applicable product expressly provides different licensing terms.

Purchase of a digital product does not ordinarily authorize the purchaser to reproduce the product for commercial distribution, resell it, upload it to file-sharing services, distribute copies to others, or claim authorship or ownership of the material.

5. ORDERS AND PAYMENTS

Products and services may be offered at prices displayed through the online store.

By submitting an order, you represent that the information supplied in connection with the transaction is accurate and that you are authorized to use the selected payment method.

Payment processing may be performed by third-party payment processors. Ancestral Waters & Sacred Fire Church does not necessarily receive or retain complete payment-card information when that information is processed directly by a third-party payment provider.

We reserve the right to decline or cancel transactions where reasonably necessary because of suspected fraud, payment failure, pricing or technical errors, product unavailability, or other legitimate circumstances.

6. DIGITAL DELIVERY

Digital products may be delivered through a download link, electronic communication, customer interface, or another electronic delivery method.

Customers are responsible for providing accurate contact information and maintaining reasonable access to the device, software, and internet connection necessary to receive digital products.

If a technical problem prevents access to a purchased digital product, please contact us for assistance.

7. RETURNS AND REFUNDS

Purchases are subject to our separate Returns & Refunds Policy, which forms part of the terms applicable to transactions through our online store.

Digital products are generally final once successfully delivered or made available for download, subject to the circumstances described in the Returns & Refunds Policy and any rights provided by applicable law.

8. DONATIONS AND CONTRIBUTIONS

Where the website permits donations or voluntary contributions, such transactions are separate from purchases unless expressly identified otherwise.

Donations and contributions are generally non-refundable once processed except in circumstances involving duplicate transactions, processing errors, unauthorized transactions, or other circumstances where a refund is determined to be appropriate.

9. THIRD-PARTY SERVICES AND LINKS

The website may use or contain links to third-party websites, payment processors, hosting providers, ecommerce services, media platforms, or other external services.

Ancestral Waters & Sacred Fire Church does not control every aspect of third-party websites or services. Your use of a third-party service may therefore also be governed by that provider's own terms and privacy practices.

10. PRIVACY

Information collected through the website is handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

By using the website, you acknowledge that information may be processed as described in that policy.

11. COOKIES AND WEBSITE TECHNOLOGIES

The website and its service providers may use cookies and similar technologies necessary for website functionality, security, ecommerce operations, preferences, analytics, and other purposes described in our Privacy Policy.

Available cookie controls may depend upon your browser, device, geographic location, and the technologies used by the website.

12. EDUCATIONAL AND SPIRITUAL CONTENT

Teachings, publications, sermons, educational resources, spiritual materials, and other informational content provided through the website are offered for religious, spiritual, educational, and informational purposes.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, such materials are not intended as individualized legal, medical, financial, tax, or other licensed professional advice.

13. WEBSITE AVAILABILITY

We may modify, update, suspend, discontinue, or restrict portions of the website or online store when reasonably necessary for maintenance, security, operational, legal, or other legitimate purposes.

We do not guarantee that every feature or resource will remain continuously available or error-free.

14. DISCLAIMER

We endeavor to provide useful and accurate information. However, to the extent permitted by applicable law, website content and services are provided without guarantees that every feature, resource, or item of information will be uninterrupted, error-free, or suitable for every particular purpose.

Nothing in these Terms excludes rights or responsibilities that cannot lawfully be excluded.

15. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Ancestral Waters & Sacred Fire Church will not be responsible for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential losses arising solely from the use of, or inability to use, the website or digital services.

Nothing in these Terms limits liability where limitation or exclusion is prohibited by applicable law.

16. CHANGES TO THESE TERMS

We may revise these Terms and Conditions as our website, products, services, or legal requirements change.

The current version will be posted on the website with its effective or updated date. Continued use of the website after revised Terms become effective constitutes acceptance to the extent permitted by applicable law.

17. SEVERABILITY

If any provision of these Terms is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in effect to the extent permitted by law.
