Stagelight terms of use

1. Using Stagelight

Stagelight is made and owned by Lord-Raven1 ("we", "us"): © 2026 Lord-Raven1, all rights reserved. It is free to use, but it is not open source. You may install and use it, for free, on as many computers as you like, for yourself, your church or your organisation.

Please don't sell Stagelight, pass it off as your own, modify it, or share modified copies of it. The full licence spells this out. To share Stagelight with someone, send them the official download page, so they always get a genuine, up-to-date copy.

2. No warranty

Stagelight is provided "as is" and "as available", without any warranty of any kind, express or implied, including any warranty that it is fit for a particular purpose, free of errors, or will work without interruption.

We work hard to make it reliable, but software can crash, projectors can disconnect and updates can change things. Try Stagelight before you depend on it, and keep a simple fallback for live events, such as printed lyrics or a second copy of your slides.

3. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, we are not liable for any loss or damage arising from using, or being unable to use, Stagelight. That includes lost data, interrupted services or events, and any indirect or consequential loss.

Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under law that can't be limited, including under South Africa's Consumer Protection Act where it applies.

4. What you show is up to you

You are responsible for the songs, scripture, images, videos, music and web pages you show with Stagelight, and for having any licences they need. For example, many churches need a licence such as CCLI to project song lyrics, and many Bible translations are copyrighted. Stagelight doesn't include or grant any of these licences.

5. Other services

Some features open other services, each with its own terms and privacy policy: YouTube and other websites you add as links, GitHub (downloads, updates and feedback), WhatsApp (sharing scripture), and Ko-fi or PayFast (tips). Using them is between you and that service.

6. Tips are gifts

Tips are voluntary and don't buy anything: no features, support or guarantees. They're a thank-you that helps keep Stagelight going, and they aren't refundable through us. Your card provider or the tip service may have its own rules.

7. Updates and changes

Stagelight updates itself when a new version is released. We may change, pause or stop Stagelight or these terms at any time. The date at the top shows the latest version of the terms. If you keep using Stagelight after a change, the new terms apply.

8. The law that applies

These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa.
