Terms and Conditions

1. Introduction

Welcome to Swiss Ministry. These Terms & Conditions (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Swiss Ministry website, including its content, resources, merchandise, and donation facilities.

Throughout these Terms, “Swiss Ministry,” “we,” “our,” and “us” refer to the operator of this website. “You” and “your” refer to any person accessing or using the website.

By accessing or using our website, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please discontinue using the website.

2. Purpose of Our Website

Swiss Ministry provides Christian faith-based content, educational resources, music, videos, ministry updates, and other materials intended to encourage people in their faith and understanding of Christian teachings.

Our website may also offer Christian-themed T-shirts and provide opportunities for visitors to make voluntary donations to support our ministry and its activities.

We may add, modify, or discontinue website features or content from time to time.

3. Eligibility and Acceptable Use

You agree to use this website lawfully and respectfully.

You must not:

Use the website for any unlawful, fraudulent, or unauthorised purpose.
Attempt to gain unauthorised access to our website, systems, or user information.
Interfere with the website's operation, security, or availability.
Upload malicious software or harmful code.
Copy, distribute, or commercially exploit website content without permission or a valid legal basis.
Submit false, misleading, abusive, threatening, or unlawful material.
Use the website in a way that infringes the rights of Swiss Ministry or any other person.

We reserve the right to restrict access where reasonably necessary to protect our website, users, or legal interests.

4. Intellectual Property Rights

Unless otherwise stated, the content published on this website—including text, graphics, logos, designs, photographs, videos, music, artwork, and other materials—is owned by Swiss Ministry or used with permission or under an applicable licence.

You may access and share website content for personal, non-commercial purposes where permitted, provided that you do not misrepresent the material, remove required attribution, or infringe applicable rights.

You may not reproduce, modify, distribute, publish, sell, or commercially exploit our content without prior written permission, except where permitted by law or an applicable licence.

The use of third-party names, trademarks, music, images, or other materials remains subject to the rights of their respective owners.

5. T-Shirt Products and Orders

Swiss Ministry may offer Christian-themed T-shirts and related merchandise for purchase through its website.

We aim to display product descriptions, images, colours, sizes, and prices as accurately as reasonably possible. However, colours may appear differently depending on your device, and minor variations may occur.

Placing an order constitutes an offer to purchase the selected products. An order confirmation does not necessarily mean that the order has been accepted or dispatched unless our ordering process expressly states otherwise.

We reserve the right to refuse or cancel an order where reasonably necessary, including in cases of suspected fraud, pricing errors, stock unavailability, or technical problems. If payment has already been collected for a cancelled order, any applicable refund will be processed in accordance with our Refund, Return and Donation Policy and applicable law.

Prices, product availability, and product descriptions may change without prior notice. Changes will not override rights applicable to an order already accepted.

6. Payments and Shipping

Customers must provide accurate information required to complete an order, including delivery details and payment information.

Payments may be processed through third-party payment providers. Their terms and privacy practices may apply to transactions processed through their services.

Shipping methods, estimated delivery times, charges, and delivery locations will be communicated during checkout or through the relevant product or shipping information.

Delivery estimates are not guarantees unless expressly stated. Delays may occur because of courier operations, customs procedures, weather, or other circumstances outside our reasonable control.

Customers are responsible for ensuring that the delivery address supplied is accurate and complete.

7. Returns, Exchanges, and Refunds

Requests concerning T-shirt returns, exchanges, cancellations, or refunds are governed by our separate Refund, Return and Donation Policy, available on our website.

Please review that policy before placing an order. Nothing in these Terms removes or restricts any mandatory consumer rights under applicable law.

8. Donations and Contributions

Swiss Ministry may provide visitors with an opportunity to make voluntary donations or contributions in support of its ministry and activities.

By making a donation, you confirm that:

You are authorised to use the payment method selected.
The information you provide is accurate to the best of your knowledge.
You intend to make the contribution voluntarily.

Donations are generally considered final once successfully processed, except where a refund is approved under our Refund, Return and Donation Policy, a payment error or unauthorised transaction is established, or applicable law requires otherwise.

Donations do not automatically entitle the donor to products, services, membership, or any other benefit unless expressly stated.

Swiss Ministry does not make any representation that a donation is tax-deductible. Any tax treatment depends on the ministry's legal status, the donor's circumstances, and the laws applicable to the transaction. Please consult a qualified tax professional if you require guidance.

9. Christian Content and Educational Resources

Our website presents Christian teachings, Bible-related content, music, videos, and other faith-based resources for informational, educational, and devotional purposes.

Content reflects the ministry's religious perspective and is not intended to replace professional advice in areas such as medical care, mental health, legal matters, or financial decisions.

Visitors are encouraged to consider the material thoughtfully and consult appropriate qualified professionals where necessary.

10. User Submissions and Testimonials

If you submit a testimonial, story, comment, photograph, video, or other material to Swiss Ministry, you confirm that you have the necessary rights and permissions to submit it.

You retain ownership of your content. However, where you voluntarily submit material for publication and grant the necessary permission, you authorise Swiss Ministry to use, display, reproduce, and share that material for the purposes agreed with you.

We will not assume that every submission is authorised for public publication merely because it has been sent to us. Where appropriate, we may seek clarification or permission before publishing identifiable personal content.

You must not submit content that unlawfully infringes another person's rights, violates privacy, or contains unlawful or harmful material.

We may decline to publish or remove submissions where reasonably necessary.

11. Third-Party Links and Services

Our website may include links to third-party websites, social media platforms, video or music services, payment providers, or other external resources.

These services are independently operated. Swiss Ministry does not control their content, availability, security, or privacy practices.

Accessing third-party services is at your discretion and may be subject to their own terms and conditions.

12. Website Availability and Disclaimer

We aim to keep our website accessible and its content accurate and up to date. However, we do not guarantee that the website will always be available, uninterrupted, error-free, or free from harmful components.

Website content and resources are provided on an “as available” basis, subject to any warranties or rights that cannot legally be excluded.

We may maintain, update, suspend, or discontinue parts of the website when reasonably necessary.

13. Limitation of Liability

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Swiss Ministry will not be responsible for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential losses arising from the use of, or inability to use, the website.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability where such exclusion or limitation is prohibited by law, including any mandatory consumer rights or liability that cannot legally be excluded.

Nothing in this section affects the remedies available to customers under applicable consumer protection laws.

14. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to be responsible for losses, claims, or reasonable expenses arising directly from your unlawful use of the website, your material breach of these Terms, or your infringement of another person's rights.

This provision does not apply to the extent that liability results from Swiss Ministry's own acts or omissions or where applicable law prohibits such an allocation of responsibility.

15. Privacy

Your use of the website is also subject to our Privacy Policy, which explains how personal information may be collected, used, and handled.

By using the website, you acknowledge that you have had the opportunity to review our Privacy Policy. Any consent required by applicable privacy law will be obtained separately where necessary.

16. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms to reflect changes to our website, merchandise, donation facilities, business practices, or legal obligations.

The updated version will be published on this page with a revised effective date. Your continued use of the website after changes take effect may constitute acceptance where permitted by law. Changes will not remove rights that have already accrued or that cannot legally be waived.

17. Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms are subject to applicable laws and mandatory consumer protection requirements.

The governing law and appropriate jurisdiction will depend on the legal entity operating Swiss Ministry and its place of establishment. Nothing in these Terms prevents a consumer from exercising any mandatory rights available in their country of residence.
