Giftlist Terms of Service
Last updated: 16 November 2026
These terms are an agreement between you and D C B Kwan ("we", "us"), who run Giftlist. By creating an account or using Giftlist, you agree to them. Please also read our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle your information.
1. Who can use Giftlist
- You must be 13 or older, or a parent or guardian may set up and manage an account for their child. If you do this, you are responsible for the account and for following these terms.
- Each person should have their own account. Keep your password private. You're responsible for what happens in your account.
2. What Giftlist does
Giftlist lets you keep a list of things you'd like, share it with friends you choose, and claim items on friends' lists so they don't receive the same thing twice.
- Claims are a courtesy between friends. Claiming an item doesn't reserve or buy it from a shop, and doesn't guarantee that you'll receive it.
- The surprise. Giftlist is designed so you can't see who has claimed or bought items on your list. We work hard to keep it that way, but we can't control what people say or show each other outside the app.
- Shops and websites. Items often link to other websites. We don't sell items, and we aren't responsible for those websites, their prices, stock, delivery or returns. Prices on Giftlist are only a guide and may be out of date. Prices are shown in Australian dollars.
3. Your content
- You own what you add to Giftlist – your items, notes, pictures and dates.
- You give us permission to store it and show it to the friends you share it with, only so Giftlist can work.
- Only add things you're allowed to share. Pictures and details taken from shop websites remain owned by those shops.
4. Please don't
- Use Giftlist to harass, bully or embarrass anyone, or add offensive, illegal or unsafe content.
- Try to find out who claimed your items, or try to get information you're not meant to see.
- Try to guess invite links, or try to collect other people's details.
- Pretend to be someone else, or create accounts for other people without their permission (except a parent for their child).
- Try to break, overload or copy the app.
We may remove content, or suspend or close an account, if these terms are broken.
5. Testing version
Giftlist is new and is being tested with family and friends. It's free. Features may change, stop working for a while or be removed, and we may make mistakes. Please don't rely on Giftlist as the only record of anything important.
6. Ending your account
- You can delete your account at any time in the app: Profile → Delete my account. This can't be undone.
- We may close Giftlist or your account. If we close the whole app, we'll try to give you notice in the app first.
7. Our responsibility to you
Nothing in these terms limits your rights under the Australian Consumer Law or any other law that can't be excluded. Apart from those rights, and as far as the law allows:
- Giftlist is provided "as is", without promises that it will always be available or error-free;
- we aren't responsible for indirect loss, such as a missed or duplicated gift, or anything bought from another website.
8. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms. We'll change the date at the top and, for important changes, tell you in the app. If you keep using Giftlist after that, the new terms apply.
9. Law
These terms are governed by the laws of New South Wales, Australia.
