3. Definitions
The following terms are used in these Terms:
- “Site” / “Wishpicks Platform” – the website wishpicks.com, its subdomains, and related online services that provide Wishpicks functionality.
- “Visitor” – an individual using the Service without creating an account (guest), who may still interact with certain features (for example, viewing wishlists or reserving gifts).
- “User” – an individual who has created an account on Wishpicks and uses extended features of the Service.
- “Account” – a registered user profile on the Wishpicks Platform.
- “Influencer” – a user who utilizes the Service to create public product collections, recommendations, and promotional materials for their audience.
- “Wishlist” – a list of products or services created on the Service that the user plans to purchase or would like to receive as a gift.
- “Wish Picks” / “Product Collection” – a public or semi-public collection of products/services created by a user or influencer for inspiration, recommendations, or promotional purposes.
- “Gift Reservation” – a feature allowing a third party to indicate that they plan to purchase a specific item from a wishlist (to avoid duplicate gifts).
- “Partner Links” / “Affiliate Links” – special URLs to third-party stores that may include tracking parameters for measuring clicks and potential rewards.
- “Wishpicks Plus” – paid or extended features of the Service (e.g., advanced price tracking, additional customization options), which may be described separately.
Unless explicitly stated otherwise, “you” refers to both registered users and visitors.
4. Nature of the Service
Wishpicks is a platform for:
- managing personal and shared wishlists;
- planning gifts and events;
- tracking price changes for products;
- creating product collections and curated lists;
- interacting with partner stores through links and promo codes.
We:
- provide you with a tool for organizing your wishes and shopping plans;
- are not an online store and do not sell products directly;
- are not a party to any purchase agreement between you and a third-party store, even if you accessed it through Wishpicks.
We strive to keep the Service available, stable, and secure; however, we do not guarantee uninterrupted operation or the absence of technical errors (see the sections “Disclaimer of Warranties” and “Limitation of Liability”).
5. Access to the Service and Account Creation
5.1. Who May Use the Service
You may use Wishpicks as:
- a Visitor (anonymous user) — without creating an account;
- a Registered User — with access to extended functionality.
By using the Service in any way, you represent and warrant that:
- you are at least 16 years old (or any other minimum age required by the laws of your country);
- you have full legal capacity to enter into this agreement;
- you use the Service for personal, non-commercial purposes, unless otherwise agreed with us.
If you use the Service on behalf of a company, brand, or organization, you confirm that:
- you are authorized to act on behalf of that organization;
- you agree that these Terms are binding for that organization.
5.2 Using the Service Without Registration (Anonymous Account)
Wishpicks allows you to use most core features without creating an account, including:
- creating wishlists;
- adding products;
- reserving gifts;
- viewing content available without authentication.
In such cases, your data and settings are stored as an anonymous account, associated with your device through cookies (session and persistent).
Important:
If cookies are deleted manually, automatically, or by third-party software,
or if you switch your browser/device,
or enable “incognito/private mode” or cookie blockers —
→ access to the anonymous account, including your wishlists, will be lost permanently and cannot be restored.
An anonymous account is not linked to any email address, which means Wishpicks has no technical ability to verify your identity or recover your data once cookies are lost.
To ensure stable access to your wishlists and reservations, we recommend registering an account.
5.3. Account Registration
To access additional features (sync across devices, profile editing, activity history, business/influencer tools, etc.), you must create an account.
You may register using:
- Google or Facebook; or
- an email address with confirmation via a “magic link.”
You agree to provide accurate and up-to-date information and keep it current.
We are not responsible for consequences arising from incorrect or outdated information provided by you.
5.4. Account Security
You are responsible for:
- keeping access credentials to the Service secure (email access, Google/Apple/Facebook accounts);
- all actions performed through your account.
If you suspect unauthorized access, we recommend:
- updating passwords for services you use to log in;
- contacting us at 📩 support@wishpicks.com
5.5. Influencer Account and Business Features
A user may request access to extended capabilities (Influencer account or business dashboard). We may:
- request additional information (brand name, links, activity description);
- approve or reject the request at our sole discretion.
You are solely responsible for complying with applicable tax, advertising, and disclosure regulations, including marking collaborations (“advertising,” “affiliate,” etc.).
5.6. Account Closure
You may:
- delete your account in the settings; or
- send us a request to delete it.
We may delete or block your account if:
- you violate these Terms or applicable laws;
- you misuse the Service (spam, fraud, technical attacks, etc.).
Details regarding processing and deletion of personal data are described in our Privacy Policy.
6. Permitted and Prohibited Use
By using the Service, you agree that you will NOT:
-
Use the Service in any way that:
- violates the law, these Terms, or the rights of third parties;
- is fraudulent, deceptive, discriminatory, abusive, hateful, or contains hate speech;
- infringes intellectual property rights, privacy rights, or any other legal rights.
-
Use automated tools (bots, scrapers, spiders, etc.) to:
- mass-collect data from Wishpicks;
- bypass technical limitations or security mechanisms.
-
Attempt to:
- gain unauthorized access to other users’ accounts, our servers, or databases;
- test or probe vulnerabilities without our explicit written consent.
-
Upload or distribute:
- viruses, trojans, malicious code, scripts, or any tools that may harm the Service or data of other users.
-
Use the Service for:
- sending spam or large-scale unsolicited messages;
- commercial activities that have not been approved by us (for example, reselling access to an account).
Wishpicks reserves the right to suspend or limit access, as well as remove content that, in our good-faith judgment, violates these Terms or applicable laws.
7. User Content
7.1. What Counts as User Content
“User content” includes:
- titles and descriptions of wishlists;
- notes added to products;
- images you upload;
- comments, reviews, recommendation texts;
- your nickname, profile photo, and other publicly visible information.
7.2. Your Warranties
By posting content on Wishpicks, you represent that:
- you have all necessary rights to use and publish this content;
- the content does not infringe the rights of third parties (copyrights, trademarks, image rights, etc.);
- the content does not contain prohibited material (hate speech, pornography, calls for violence, fraud, etc.).
7.3. License to Use Your Content
You retain all intellectual property rights to your content.
By posting content on the Service, you grant Wishes DNA, Lda the following licenses:
1) Service Operation License (revocable)
You grant Wishes DNA, Lda a non-exclusive, revocable, royalty-free, worldwide license to:
- store, cache, and technically process your content (optimization, resizing, preview generation);
- reproduce, display, and distribute your content as needed for the functioning of the Platform (your wishlists, shared access, public collections, etc.).
You may delete or modify your content at any time, and this license will cease for all future uses — except for the cases listed below.
2) Promotional Materials License (limited irrevocability)
If your content (or interface fragments containing it) has already been used in public Wishpicks promotional materials, including:
- presentations, posts on Wishpicks social media;
- demo screenshots, interface mockups;
- pages of marketing campaigns,
you grant Wishes DNA, Lda a non-exclusive, royalty-free, limited irrevocable license that allows us to:
- continue using such materials in their already existing form;
- keep them in available archives or public channels.
This is necessary because complete removal of already published materials is not always technically or legally possible (e.g., if shared by third-party platforms).
3) Backups and Caches
Your content may temporarily persist in:
- system backups,
- CDN caches, browser caches, or infrastructure services.
These copies will be automatically removed within standard retention cycles.
8. Obtaining Data From Third-Party Websites (scraping / extraction)
Wishpicks allows users to add products or services to their wishlists by pasting a link to a page of a third-party online store.
After such a link is provided, Wishpicks (or a contracted technical provider) may automatically:
- read publicly available information from the page (product name, description, image, price, currency, and other metadata);
- store such data in a minimal necessary amount for correct display of the item in the user’s profile.
Wishpicks does not perform large-scale or automated scanning of websites, and processes only those URLs explicitly provided by the user.
8.1. Limits of Wishpicks’ Responsibility
Information obtained from third-party websites:
- may be outdated, incomplete, or inaccurate;
- may change without notice;
- may display incorrectly if the third-party site changes its structure.
Wishpicks does not guarantee the accuracy, freshness, completeness, or availability of data retrieved from third-party websites and is not responsible for:
- the operation or availability of the external resource;
- changes in layout, structure, or content of the page;
- any technical restrictions imposed by the seller’s website;
- copyrights or other proprietary rights related to third-party website content.
Wishpicks does not modify, sell, or reproduce full copies of pages — only the minimal fragments required for creating a user’s wish item.
8.2. Data Processing Only Upon User Request
Data extraction from third-party websites occurs only after the user voluntarily provides a URL.
Wishpicks does not crawl or index external websites independently and does not start automatic updates without user action (except optional price-tracking updates, if enabled by the user).
8.3. Technical Limitations of Third-Party Websites
Wishpicks may use external technical providers to process URLs (for example, to generate a page preview).
If information cannot be technically retrieved, Wishpicks may:
- fail to display some data,
- or stop updating metadata for a specific domain.
8.4. Requests From Rights Holders or Merchants
If you are the owner of a store, brand, or online platform and you do not want Wishpicks to retrieve metadata from your website, you may submit a request:
Upon receiving the request, Wishpicks will stop automatically retrieving data from the specified domain.
Wishpicks reserves the right, but is not obligated, to notify users about restrictions related to specific store URLs.
8.5. Notice of Potential Rights Infringement
If you believe that certain content on Wishpicks infringes your rights (copyrights, related rights, trademarks, commercial identifiers), you may submit a complaint:
We will review the request and take appropriate action.
9. License to Use the Service
We grant you:
a revocable, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, and non-sublicensable license to access and use the Wishpicks Platform in accordance with these Terms.
This license:
- does not give you the right to resell the Service or any part of it;
- does not permit copying, modifying, decompiling, reverse engineering, or otherwise attempting to obtain the source code;
- does not allow creating derivative works based on the Service without our written consent.
All rights not expressly granted to you are reserved by Wishes DNA, Lda.
10. Paid Features and Subscriptions
We may offer paid features, such as Wishpicks Plus or other advanced functionalities.
- The terms of payment, trial periods, renewal, and cancellation may be additionally described:
- on the checkout page;
- in the specific terms of the subscription plan.
If special terms for a particular paid feature conflict with these Terms, the special terms take precedence, but only for the specific service they apply to.
11. Links to Third-Party Websites, Stores, and Affiliate Programs
The Wishpicks Platform may contain:
- links to third-party websites, online stores, and marketplaces;
- promo codes, partner offers, affiliate links.
We:
- do not control and are not responsible for the content of such external websites;
- do not guarantee product availability, price accuracy, or delivery terms;
- are not responsible for the seller’s obligations toward you.
Any legal relationship concerning the purchase of goods/services arises directly between you and the respective store/vendor, not with Wishes DNA, Lda.
If a link on Wishpicks is marked as a partner or affiliate link, it means we may receive a commission for a click or purchase, but this does not affect the price you pay, unless explicitly stated otherwise.
12. Reporting Violations and Content Complaints
If you believe that:
- content on the Platform infringes your rights (copyright, image rights, trademarks, etc.); or
- materials are illegal or unacceptable (hate speech, fraud, promotion of violence),
you may send us a notice (complaint) at:
📩 support@wishpicks.com
Please include:
- a link to the page or a screenshot of the content;
- a brief description of the issue;
- the reason you believe the content violates the law or your rights;
- contact details for follow-up communication.
We will review the complaint within a reasonable timeframe and:
- may temporarily restrict the visibility of the content;
- may request additional information from you;
- will inform you of the key decision (removal or retention of the content).
If someone abuses the complaint procedure (mass, baseless, or clearly malicious complaints), we may limit or refuse to accept further complaints from that person.
