Privacy Policy

Account-free and privacy-first

GiftSecrets does not require user registration, account creation, or logins. GiftSecrets does not collect, store, or profile personal identification data. You can use the platform without submitting your name, email address, phone number, or other identity information.

GiftSecrets uses browser LocalStorage to maintain anonymous referral IDs, user display names, search quotas, and session timestamps without requiring account registration. Clearing your browser data resets these values.

External ecosystem handling

Any purchases or premium upgrades are routed directly through external platform providers, including Apple, Google, Huawei, and Stripe, according to their respective privacy standards and terms. GiftSecrets never receives, accesses, or stores your financial or identity data from these providers.

Group Pots and external payments

If you choose to use a Group Pot, contributions are processed by the applicable third-party payment provider. GiftSecrets does not hold or take custody of funds, does not receive financial or identity data, and does not store payment details. Any provider fees or platform charges are disclosed before payment where applicable.

Product discovery and recommendations

GiftSecrets may use product discovery and recommendation tools to help you compare products worldwide, including global shipping options and prices in currencies such as EUR, USD, and GBP. These tools are intended to provide useful suggestions and do not create a personal profile about you. External merchants and recommendation providers have their own terms and privacy policies, including rules for global shipping, local availability, and currency conversion.

Cookies and analytics

GiftSecrets uses only technologies needed to operate the platform and support client-side functionality. If optional analytics or marketing technologies are introduced, they will be disclosed and consent will be requested where required by law.
