Legal
Terms of Service
Last updated: June 5, 2026
These Terms are an agreement between you and Joviel. By joining the waitlist or using the Service, you agree to them. Please read them carefully.
1. Who can use Joviel
You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract to use the Service. Joviel is a community for orthodox Protestant Christians; by joining, you confirm the information you provide is truthful and that you are joining in good faith.
2. The waitlist
Joining the waitlist lets us contact you about Joviel — it does not create an account or guarantee access. We open the Service gradually and by verification, and we may decline or remove a registration at our discretion. You can ask us to remove your email at any time at hello@joviel.one.
3. Your account & verification
When the app launches, you are responsible for the accuracy of your profile and for keeping your login secure. To protect the community, we may require identity and liveness verification and a faith interview before granting access, and we may re-verify members over time.
4. Community rules
You agree not to:
- Impersonate anyone, create fake or duplicate profiles, or misrepresent yourself.
- Harass, threaten, defraud, or harm other members.
- Solicit money, promote schemes, spam, or use the Service commercially without permission.
- Post unlawful, hateful, sexually exploitative, or infringing content.
- Scrape, reverse-engineer, or disrupt the Service or its security.
- Use the Service if you are a minor or are barred under applicable law.
We may suspend or remove accounts that break these rules or put members at risk.
5. Your content
You keep ownership of the content you submit. You grant Joviel a limited, worldwide, non-exclusive license to host and display your content as needed to operate the Service. You are responsible for the content you share.
6. Fees
The waitlist is free. Some features of the app may be offered as paid memberships or one-time purchases; pricing and terms for those will be shown before you buy.
7. Intellectual property
The Joviel name, brand, software, and design are owned by Joviel and protected by law. These Terms do not grant you any right to use them except to use the Service as intended.
8. Safety & disclaimers
Joviel works hard to keep the community real and safe through identity and liveness verification, but we do not conduct criminal background checks and cannot guarantee the identity, conduct, or intentions of any member. Please read our Dating Safety notice. You are responsible for your own interactions — use good judgment, never send money, and meet in public when meeting someone for the first time. The Service is provided “as is” without warranties of any kind, and we do not promise any particular match or outcome.
9. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Joviel will not be liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages, or for the acts of other members. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Service is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim (or USD 100 if you paid nothing).
10. Termination
You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or end your access if you violate these Terms or to protect the community.
11. Governing law & disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York, USA, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Disputes will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in New York, unless applicable law gives you the right to bring a claim elsewhere.
12. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms as the Service grows. We will revise the “Last updated” date above and, for material changes, provide additional notice. Continuing to use the Service means you accept the updated Terms.
