Your responsibility

You’re responsible for the content you upload into SundaySync. If you upload songs, charts, lyrics, video, images, or any other media, you must have the right to do so — whether through a CCLI license, a CCS license, original authorship, or another valid permission.

SundaySync stores and displays your uploads only inside your own church’s workspace. We don’t publish them, redistribute them, or share them with the public.

SundaySync does not provide copyrighted worship downloads

SundaySync does not offer downloads of copyrighted worship music, charts, or lyrics. Anything you see inside the platform either originated from your own workspace uploads or comes from a properly licensed external provider (e.g. song previews from Deezer).

SundaySync’s music discovery feature searches third-party catalogs (currently Deezer) and shows short 30-second previews provided by those services for evaluation purposes. SundaySync does not host the full audio files. To use a song in your service, you’ll still need an appropriate license through CCLI or another authorized provider.

Reporting a copyright issue

If you believe content stored inside SundaySync infringes a copyright you own or are authorized to act for, please send a takedown notice to [email protected] with:

  • A clear description of the copyrighted work you’re identifying.
  • Where in SundaySync the allegedly infringing content lives (workspace name or URL if you have one).
  • Your contact information (name, email, mailing address, phone if available).
  • A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you’re the rights holder or authorized to act on their behalf.
  • Your physical or electronic signature.

We aim to respond to valid copyright notices within a few business days.

Counter-notification

If your content was removed because of a copyright notice and you believe that’s a mistake, you can submit a counter-notification to the same email. Include the same identifying information plus a good-faith statement that the content was removed in error.

Repeat-infringer policy

SundaySync will, in appropriate circumstances, suspend or terminate accounts that repeatedly upload infringing content.
