Acceptance of these terms
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) form a binding agreement between you and [LEGAL ENTITY NAME] (“Giftl-AI”, “we”, “us”, or “our”). By downloading the Giftl-AI app, creating an account, or otherwise using the Service, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and by our Privacy Policy.
If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.
Who can use Giftl-AI
You must be at least 16 years old to use Giftl-AI if you reside in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, or at least 13 years old elsewhere. By using the Service you confirm that you meet the applicable minimum age.
If you are using the Service in your capacity as an employee, contractor, or agent of a business, you also represent that you have authority to bind that business to these Terms.
We may decline to provide the Service in certain countries or to certain users at our reasonable discretion (for example, where required by export-control or sanctions laws).
Your account
To use most features you need to create an account. You can sign in by email or via Sign in with Apple or Google.
- You agree to provide accurate information and to keep it up to date.
- You are responsible for keeping your password and sign-in method secure, and for everything that happens under your account.
- Notify us promptly at security@giftl-ai.com if you suspect unauthorised use of your account.
- You may delete your account at any time from inside the app (Settings → Account → Delete account) or by emailing support@giftl-ai.com.
What the Service is
Giftl-AI helps you plan and remember gifts for the people who matter to you. The Service includes:
- A profile manager for the people you give gifts to, with their preferences and important dates;
- A gift finder that suggests products and ideas based on the information you provide;
- Wishlists and bookmarks for saving ideas;
- A history of gifts you have given, with optional ratings, reviews, and photos;
- Reminders for upcoming occasions.
We may add, change, or remove features at any time. We aim to give you reasonable notice of significant changes that affect you adversely.
About our recommendations
Giftl-AI uses automated systems, including machine-learning techniques, to suggest products and ideas based on inputs you provide. Our recommendations are suggestions, not professional, medical, financial, legal, or personal advice. You alone decide what to buy and for whom.
Pricing, availability, sizes, and product details shown in the app come from third parties and may change at any time. Always confirm details on the retailer's own page before purchasing.
Affiliate disclosure
Some links from Giftl-AI to retailers are affiliate links. If you click an affiliate link and make a purchase, the retailer may pay us a small commission at no extra cost to you. This includes (among others) the Amazon Associates programme and partners within the Awin network.
Affiliate commissions help us keep the Service running and free for most users. They do not influence the rankings we show you — recommendations are based on the matching signals from your inputs, not on which retailer pays the highest commission.
Third-party services and links
The Service relies on third parties (such as Apple, Google Firebase, and Supabase) to provide authentication, push notifications, and data storage. Their handling of your data is governed by our Privacy Policy.
When you tap an outbound link to a retailer or other third party, that site is operated independently and has its own terms and privacy policy. We are not responsible for the content, security, or practices of any third-party site, and including a link is not an endorsement.
Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Use the Service for any unlawful, harmful, or fraudulent purpose;
- Upload content that infringes another person's rights, including intellectual-property and privacy rights;
- Enter another person's sensitive personal data (such as health, religious, or political views) without a legitimate basis to do so;
- Reverse-engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract the source code of the app, except where applicable law permits;
- Probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of our systems without our written permission;
- Use the Service to send spam, phishing, or other unsolicited communications;
- Interfere with or disrupt the integrity or performance of the Service or the data it contains;
- Use automated means (bots, scrapers) to access the Service except as expressly permitted by us;
- Misuse referral or affiliate features in a way that is misleading or fraudulent.
We may suspend or terminate accounts that breach these rules.
Your content
“User Content” means anything you create or upload inside the Service — including profiles you create for other people, occasions, wishlists, bookmarks, gift histories, ratings, reviews, notes, and photos.
You own your User Content. You grant us a limited, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, store, transmit, and display your User Content solely for the purpose of operating and improving the Service for you. We will not use your User Content for any other purpose without your consent.
You confirm that you have the right to upload the User Content in question, that it does not infringe anyone else's rights, and that you have a legitimate reason to record any information about other people that is contained in it.
You can delete your User Content from the Service at any time. Deletion is effective in active systems immediately; backups may retain a copy for a short window in the normal rotation (see our Privacy Policy).
Our intellectual property
The Giftl-AI app, website, name, logo, product catalogue, recommendation system, and all other materials we provide are owned by Giftl-AI or its licensors and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws.
We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use the Service for your personal, non-commercial purposes, subject to these Terms. All rights not expressly granted are reserved.
You may not copy, modify, distribute, publicly perform, or create derivative works of the Service or any part of it, except as expressly permitted by these Terms or applicable law.
Fees & purchases
Giftl-AI is currently free to use. We may introduce optional paid features in the future. If we do, we will tell you the price and the terms before you sign up, and the rules in this section will apply.
Any paid features purchased through the App Store are billed by Apple under Apple's terms. Refunds for App Store purchases are handled directly by Apple. If you live in the European Union, you may have additional statutory rights of withdrawal, which we will not restrict.
Purchases from retailers reached via affiliate links are not made through Giftl-AI — they are made directly with the retailer, subject to the retailer's own terms and refund policy. We are not a party to that transaction.
Disclaimer of warranties
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Service is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, free from viruses, or that any defects will be corrected.
We do not warrant the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of any recommendations, product descriptions, pricing, availability, or other content provided by us or by third parties. Always verify details with the retailer before purchasing.
Nothing in this section limits any statutory rights that you have as a consumer and that cannot be excluded under applicable law.
Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, in no event will Giftl-AI, its directors, employees, or contractors be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including loss of profits, data, goodwill, or other intangible losses, arising out of or in connection with your use of (or inability to use) the Service.
Our total liability for any direct damages arising out of or in connection with these Terms or the Service is limited to the greater of (a) the amount you have paid us for the Service in the 12 months preceding the event giving rise to liability, or (b) one hundred euros (€100).
Indemnification
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Giftl-AI and its directors, employees, and contractors from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or in any way connected with: (a) your breach of these Terms; (b) your User Content; (c) your violation of any applicable law; or (d) your violation of any third party's rights.
Termination
You can stop using the Service and delete your account at any time.
We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service if you materially breach these Terms, if we are required to by law, or if continuing to provide the Service to you would put us or other users at unreasonable risk. Where it is reasonable to do so, we will notify you beforehand and give you an opportunity to fix the issue.
Sections that by their nature should survive termination — including those on intellectual property, disclaimers, liability, indemnification, governing law, and the Apple App Store terms — will continue to apply after termination.
Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you inside the app or by email at least 14 days before they take effect. Continuing to use the Service after the new version takes effect means you accept the updated Terms. If you do not agree, you can stop using the Service and delete your account.
Governing law & disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany, excluding its conflict-of-laws rules and the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.
Where you are a consumer with habitual residence in another EU Member State, you also benefit from the mandatory consumer-protection provisions of the law of your country of residence.
Disputes arising out of or in connection with these Terms will be subject to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of [CITY, GERMANY]. Consumers may also bring proceedings in the courts where they live.
The European Commission provides a platform for online dispute resolution at ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr. We are not obliged and not willing to participate in dispute-resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board.
Apple App Store — additional terms
The following terms apply when you have downloaded the Giftl-AI app from the Apple App Store. They are required by Apple and override anything in these Terms to the extent of any conflict.
(a) Acknowledgement. These Terms are concluded between you and Giftl-AI only, and not with Apple Inc. (“Apple”). Giftl-AI alone — not Apple — is responsible for the app and its content.
(b) Scope of licence. The licence granted to you for the app is a limited, non-transferable licence to use the app on any Apple-branded products that you own or control, and as permitted by the Usage Rules set out in the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions, except that the app may be accessed and used by other accounts associated with the purchaser via Family Sharing or volume purchasing.
(c) Maintenance and support. Giftl-AI alone is responsible for providing any maintenance and support services for the app. Apple has no obligation whatsoever to furnish maintenance or support services with respect to the app.
(d) Warranty. Giftl-AI alone is responsible for any product warranties, whether express or implied by law, to the extent not effectively disclaimed. In the event of any failure of the app to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price (if any) for the app to you. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Apple will have no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to the app.
(e) Product claims. Giftl-AI, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claims by you or any third party relating to the app or your possession and/or use of it, including but not limited to: (i) product-liability claims; (ii) any claim that the app fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement; and (iii) claims arising under consumer-protection, privacy, or similar legislation.
(f) Intellectual-property rights. In the event of any third-party claim that the app or your possession and use of the app infringes that third party's intellectual-property rights, Giftl-AI, not Apple, will be solely responsible for the investigation, defence, settlement, and discharge of any such claim.
(g) Legal compliance. You represent and warrant that (i) you are not located in a country that is subject to a U.S. Government embargo, or that has been designated by the U.S. Government as a “terrorist supporting” country; and (ii) you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
(h) Developer name and address. Any questions, complaints, or claims relating to the app should be directed to [LEGAL ENTITY NAME], [STREET, POSTCODE CITY, GERMANY], email support@giftl-ai.com.
(i) Third-party beneficiary. You acknowledge and agree that Apple, and Apple's subsidiaries, are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms, and that upon your acceptance of these Terms, Apple will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you as a third-party beneficiary.
