These terms govern your use of the website operated by St. Mary's Episcopal at stmarytexas.org . They apply if you visit, create an account, book or buy, donate, comment, manage the site, or follow a link from Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, email, or search. The site is provided with the Web Whatever platform. By using the site you agree to these terms and to our Privacy Policy.

Who these terms apply to

Visitors using public pages.

People who book, buy, donate, subscribe, or send a message.
People who work on the site and who publish to social networks from it.

The site

We publish pages, news, events, and related content for St. Mary's Episcopal, Big Spring. What you can do on a given visit depends on how this site is set up (for example bookings, accounts, donations, or social sharing). Content you see on Facebook, Instagram, or LinkedIn is also subject to that network’s terms.

Visitors

You may browse public pages without an account. Do not misuse the site (see Acceptable use). If you follow a link from social media, these terms apply as soon as you use this website.

Accounts

Some areas require an account. You are responsible for the accuracy of the information you provide and for keeping your login details confidential, including access through Google or Facebook Login. Notify us at stmarysbst@gmail.com if you believe your account has been misused. We may suspend or close accounts that violate these terms or that we reasonably believe are a risk to the site or other people.

Bookings, purchases, and donations

If you book, buy, or donate through this site, payment is processed by the provider configured here (such as Stripe or an external checkout). Confirmations, cancellations, and refunds follow that provider’s process and any additional policy St. Mary's Episcopal publishes.

Your content

If you submit comments, profile information, or other material, you grant St. Mary's Episcopal a non-exclusive license to host, display, and use that material as part of operating the site. You must have the right to submit it, and it must not be unlawful, infringing, or harmful. We may remove content that violates these terms.

Content we publish (articles, images, design, and similar material) remains owned by St. Mary's Episcopal or its licensors. You may not copy or reuse it except as allowed by law or with our permission.

Acceptable use

You agree not to:

break the law or infringe others’ rights;
attempt to gain unauthorized access to the site, other accounts, or our systems;
interfere with or disrupt the site;
scrape, harvest, or use automated means to access the site except for ordinary search indexing;
misrepresent your identity or affiliation;
upload malware or content that is abusive, hateful, or sexually exploitative, especially involving minors.

Social media

Staff may connect Facebook, Instagram, or LinkedIn and share site articles to those services. Those posts are subject to the third party’s terms as well as these terms. Connecting an account does not make St. Mary's Episcopal responsible for Meta’s or LinkedIn’s services.

If you interact with our Page, profile, or posts while you are on a social network, that network’s terms apply there. If you then visit this website, these terms apply here. Visitors are not required to log in with Facebook to read public pages.

Third-party services

The site may link to or embed third-party services (maps, video, analytics, social networks, payment, sign-in, booking). Those services have their own terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for their content or practices.
