Legal text
Updated September 24, 2026
1. Grant of Rights
I hereby authorize Jesus Does, Inc. ("JesusDoes") the right and permission to copyright, publish, reproduce, distribute, display, perform, and otherwise use my name, voice, likeness, and submitted content in video, photographs, written materials, audio recordings, and audio-visual recordings in any medium now known or later developed, for any lawful purpose.
2. Distribution and Partner Use
I understand and agree that my submitted content may be distributed through multiple channels, including but not limited to: the JesusDoes website (jesusdoes.org and jesusdoes.com); partner organization websites, including churches, nonprofits, ministries, and businesses that participate in the JesusDoes platform; video hosting platforms such as YouTube; social media platforms; podcast episodes and audio recordings; embeddable widgets and players on third-party websites; and print or digital promotional materials.
I am submitting this video for possible public use. The current Tell Him form does not offer private, organization-only, or small-group video distribution. If approved, my content may appear on JesusDoes.org or the other public channels described above, including partner platforms. I understand that someone with the direct media link may be able to watch my uploaded video before review, and that JesusDoes cannot fully control copies made after public distribution.
3. Editing and Derivative Works
I understand that my content may be edited, transcribed, excerpted, captioned, translated, or combined with other materials. I also understand that JesusDoes may create derivative works from my content, including but not limited to: written transcriptions, highlight compilations, promotional excerpts, and thematic collections.
4. AI Processing and Analysis
I understand and consent to the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies to process my submitted content. This may include automated transcription of video and audio content, analysis of themes, topics, and sentiment within my testimony, categorization and tagging for discovery and search purposes, and other forms of content enrichment designed to help viewers find and engage with testimonies. AI-generated analysis will be used to improve the platform experience and will not alter the substance of my testimony.
5. Follow-Up Communications
JesusDoes may use the contact information I provide to administer my submission, communicate a review or account matter, respond to a question or removal request, and send a message I separately request. Providing an email address for submission does not itself enroll me in a recurring story-update or promotional program.
If I receive optional communications, I may opt out by contacting pete@jesusdoes.org or by using the instructions in the message.
6. Prayer Request Response
A "Jesus Please" video submitted through Tell Him is a public-intent testimony, not a private request for assistance. JesusDoes reviews submissions before placing them in Browse and does not promise that a church, ministry, or individual will respond.
Submitting a prayer request is not a substitute for professional help. If I am in crisis, I should contact emergency services (911) or a crisis helpline.
7. Ownership and License
I hereby grant Jesus Does, Inc. and its employees, agents, licensees, successors, and authorized third-party partner organizations a non-exclusive, perpetual, worldwide, irrevocable, royalty-free right and permission to use, copyright, publish, sell, distribute, and promote my submitted video, photographs, audio, and related content.
8. Assumption of Risk and Release of Liability
I understand that sharing personal testimony involves inherent risks, including but not limited to public exposure, unwanted attention, or emotional impact. I take full responsibility for my involvement and the content I submit, and I release Jesus Does, Inc. from any claims, demands, losses, damages, suits, and liabilities of any kind whatsoever in connection with the use of my content as described in this form.
9. Removal Requests
I may request removal of my content from the JesusDoes platform at any time by contacting pete@jesusdoes.org. JesusDoes will make reasonable efforts to remove the content from platforms under its direct control. I understand that content previously distributed to third-party platforms or partner organizations may not be fully retrievable, and that removal from the JesusDoes platform does not guarantee removal from all locations where the content may have been shared.
10. Age and Capacity
I certify that I am eighteen (18) years of age or older and am competent to enter into this agreement. Tell Him does not currently accept video submissions from people under eighteen, including with parent or guardian consent.
11. Acknowledgment
By checking the box on the submission form, I acknowledge that I have completely read and fully understand this Video Release and Consent Form and agree to be bound by its terms. I hereby release any and all claims against any person or organization utilizing my content as described above.
