Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 17, 2026

Who we are

HintGifts is a service that lets you create a private hint gifts page and share it with friends and family. This policy explains what data we collect, why, and how we keep it safe.

What we collect

  • Account data: your email address (and display name if you provide one) when you sign up. If you sign in with Google, we receive your name, email, and avatar from Google.
  • Gift page content: the recipient name, occasion, preferences, gift ideas, images, and notes you choose to add.
  • Reservations: when someone reserves a gift on your page, we store the reservation and any optional name or note they leave. Reservations can be fully anonymous.
  • Uploaded images: if you or a visitor upload an image for a gift, it is stored in our file storage and served via a public link tied to your page.
  • Technical data: basic logs (IP address, browser type) needed to keep the service running and secure.

How we use it

We use your data to run the service: to let you create and manage gift pages, to show your page to people you share the link with, to record reservations, and to keep the service secure. We do not sell your data or use it for advertising.

Who sees your page

Gift pages are private by default. They are accessible only to people who have your unique link or QR code. We do not list pages publicly and search engines are asked not to index them.

Payments

If you upgrade to a paid plan, payment is processed by Stripe. We never see or store your card details. Stripe receives the information necessary to process the payment.

Your rights

You can edit or delete your pages at any time from your dashboard. You can request deletion of your account and all associated data by contacting us. If you are in the EU/UK, you have rights under the GDPR including access, correction, deletion, and portability.

Retention

We keep your data for as long as your account is active. Archived or deleted pages are removed from our systems within 30 days.
