Terms of Service

1. What Emet is, and who operates it

Emet is a search index of sermons that churches have published publicly. It helps you find sermons by scripture passage, theme, story, speaker, or church, and plays them through the embedded player of the platform where the church published them. Emet does not host, store, or distribute video or audio files. Each video remains entirely under its church’s control.

Emet is a service of Theproductunicorn LLC, a limited liability company, which operates the site and is the party you are contracting with under these terms. References to “we” and “us” below mean Theproductunicorn LLC.

2. YouTube API Services

Emet uses YouTube API Services. By using Emet you agree to be bound by the YouTube Terms of Service. Google’s handling of data is described in the Google Privacy Policy. See also the Emet Privacy Policy.

3. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• scrape, crawl, or bulk-extract the index, search results, or site data;
• use automated tools to send queries beyond normal personal use;
• circumvent, download from, or interfere with the embedded player, or use Emet to violate the terms of the platforms where videos are hosted;
• misrepresent Emet or its relationship to any church.

4. Church content and removal

Sermon titles, descriptions, and thumbnails belong to the churches that published them. Emet indexes only what is already public and links every sermon back to its source. A church may request correction or removal of its listings at any time by emailing info@emetstream.com. Start the subject line with “Removal request —” so it reaches the right person quickly. We honor such requests promptly. When a source video is made private or deleted, it is withdrawn from Emet automatically on the next refresh.

5. Supporter gifts

Emet accepts voluntary gifts to support its operation, processed by Stripe. Gifts are made to Theproductunicorn LLC, the company that operates Emet. It is a limited liability company, not a registered charity, and gifts are not tax-deductible. Gifts are not payments for goods or services. A recurring gift can be changed or cancelled at any time through the Stripe-hosted management page linked from the Support page, with no account required. Refunds of one-time gifts are granted at our reasonable discretion; just ask.

6. No warranty

Emet is provided as is, without warranties of any kind. Search results, summaries, scripture references, and themes are generated aids for finding sermons; they may contain errors and are not a substitute for the sermons themselves. We do not guarantee that any video remains available, since availability is controlled by the publishing church.

7. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Emet and Theproductunicorn LLC are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from use of the service. Our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim, which for most visitors is zero.

8. Changes and contact

We may update these terms; the date above reflects the latest version, and continued use after a change constitutes acceptance. Questions go to info@emetstream.com.
