1 - Agreement

This Terms of Service Agreement (the “Agreement​”) is between you and WEBPRO PRODUCTIONS, LLC dba eCatholic (“eCatholic​”, “we​”, “us​”, or “our​”) and applies to your use of the “Products” and “Services”, collectively referred to herein as the or “Platform”, offered by eCatholic as outlined on eCatholic.com (the “Site”). As used herein, “You​” (and “you​”) and “Your​” (and “your”​) refer to you, an individual, and the organization (“Organization​”) you represent (if applicable) such as a Catholic parish, diocese, school, ministry, or other organization.
 

2 - Types of Users

The Platform has two primary types of users:

An “Admin” (or “Admins”) is any user(s) of the Platform with partial or full editing or managing privileges for one or more Products used by an Organization, or any individual with authority to act on behalf of or make purchases for the Organization.

A “Member” (or “Members”) is any individual who visits a Website, makes a Donation or Payment on a Website or through the Platform, or otherwise uses the Platform in any way without being an Admin.

You may be an Admin and/or a Member of one or more Organization(s).

3 - Description of Products and Services

eCatholic offers the following Products and Services  for your use:

PRODUCTS

Websites - eCatholic Websites enables your Organization to create and maintain a website using the Platform, which includes a proprietary content management system and website hosting. "Website" refers to the website that an Admin(s) creates using the Platform and “Domain” refers to the domain name(s) that the Organization uses in connection with the Website.

Stock Photos - eCatholic Stock Photos is a library of images made available to Admins for use on the Platform. You may not distribute or use the images made available through eCatholic Stock Photos for any other purpose other than use on your Website or through your use of the Platform. You may purchase high-resolution digital versions of the images for use with other media by visiting photos.eCatholic.com.

Donations and Payments - eCatholic Payments enables your Organization to accept one­-time and recurring donations and payments (collectively, “Donations"​ or “Payments”) from Members through your Website or the Platform that are then deposited into your Organization's bank account (“Organization Bank Account”​). Donations and Payments may be received via credit card, debit card, or bank account transfers (“ACH​”). eCatholic Payments exchanges information with a qualified payment processor (“Merchant Account​”) to transfer funds from a Member’s credit card, debit card, or bank account to the Organization Bank Account. eCatholic Payments currently works with one payment processor, CardConnect - A Fiserv Company ("CardConnect"), which utilizes a gateway provided by BluePay Processing (“BluePay​”). When your Organization signs up for eCatholic Payments, your Organization will be directed to sign up for a Merchant Account with CardConnect. CardConnect and BluePay are independent of eCatholic and have their own eligibility requirements, terms of use, privacy policy, and payment schedules. Payments received through your Website using eCatholic Payments are processed almost instantaneously through BluePay / CardConnect but usually take a couple days (sometimes longer) to be deposited into your Organization Bank Account. Members can login to the Platform to manage their profile, update payment methods, view a history of their donations, and manage their recurring donations.

Communications and Group Management - eCatholic Connect enables your Organization to upload and manage members and data about members, add and remove members from groups, send emails and text messages to members of groups or your entire Organization, and other functions related to managing members, groups, and messages. Members can also login to manage their profile, join and leave groups, update communication methods and preferences for groups, view messages from groups to which they belong, and other functions related to their engagement with groups and the Organization.

Church Management - eCatholic ChMS (Church Management System) enables your Organization to manage your families, members, groups, communications, donations, sacraments, religious education, scheduling, reports, and other functions related to managing your organization. 

Video Streaming - eCatholic LIVE is a video streaming service provided to You through a special partnership between eCatholic and Streaming Systems (“Streaming Systems”). The video streaming service and associated equipment is provided by Streaming Systems. If your Organization also has a Website with eCatholic, the Platform provides Admins with a module that they can easily drag-and-drop onto the Website to display eCatholic LIVE videos. Your Organization pays eCatholic for the services provided by Streaming Systems and eCatholic in turn pays Streaming Systems.

SERVICES

In addition to Products, eCatholic also offers various Services as outlined on the Site. These Services are governed by this Agreement.
 

4 - Subscription

eCatholic provides your Organization with a non-exclusive, non-transferable, limited license (“Subscription”) to use the Platform, which You agree to use in accordance with this Agreement.
