Effective date: September 21, 2026
Acceptance of these terms
These terms apply to your use of https://bestchristiangapyear.org, operated by Christian Gap Year Association (“CGYA,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). By using the site, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the site.
Informational purpose
The site provides general information about Christian gap years, CGYA, and independent member programs. It does not provide legal, financial, tax, medical, academic-advising, accreditation, admissions, or other professional advice.
Program costs, dates, eligibility, college-credit options, contacts, and other details may change. Confirm material information directly with the relevant program, school, financial-aid office, lender, or qualified professional before making a decision.
Independent programs and third-party websites
Member programs and linked websites are independently operated. A listing or link does not make CGYA responsible for another organization’s services, statements, availability, admissions decisions, policies, security, or privacy practices. Your interactions with a third party are governed by your agreement with that party.
Contact submissions
You agree to provide accurate information when contacting CGYA and not to submit unlawful, harmful, deceptive, abusive, or infringing content. A contact-form submission does not create enrollment, membership, admission, employment, partnership, fiduciary, or other contractual relationship with CGYA or a listed program.
Permitted use
You may use the site for lawful, personal, and informational purposes. You may not attempt to disrupt the site, gain unauthorized access, introduce malicious code, collect information through unauthorized automated means, impersonate another person or organization, or use site content in a way that violates applicable law or another party’s rights.
Intellectual property
Unless otherwise indicated, the site’s original text, branding, design, and other content are owned by or licensed to CGYA and are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. Third-party names, logos, photography, and materials remain the property of their respective owners. Limited quotations and links may be used as allowed by law; other reuse requires appropriate permission.
Availability and changes
CGYA may correct, update, suspend, or discontinue site content or functionality. We do not promise that the site will always be available, uninterrupted, secure, or error-free.
Disclaimer
To the extent permitted by applicable law, the site and its content are provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind. CGYA does not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, currency, results, or suitability of site content or third-party offerings.
Limitation of liability
To the extent permitted by applicable law, CGYA and its officers, directors, employees, volunteers, and agents will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from use of, or inability to use, the site or linked third-party services.
Privacy
How the website handles information is described in the Privacy Policy.
Governing terms and disputes
These terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. If a concern arises, contact CGYA first so the parties can attempt to resolve it informally.
Unless applicable law requires otherwise, exclusive jurisdiction and venue for any dispute arising out of or relating to these terms or the site will lie in the state or federal courts serving the Florida county in which CGYA maintains its principal office. You and CGYA consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts.
Changes to these terms
CGYA may update these terms by posting a revised version and revision date. Changes are effective when posted unless a later date is stated. Continued use after an effective update constitutes acceptance to the extent permitted by law.
