Nature of Service

Our AI-powered chatbot is a conversational tool that helps you find gift recommendations by asking questions about the recipient and occasion.

No Guarantees

The AI chatbot provides suggestions only. Important points:

• Not Professional Advice: Recommendations are not professional gift-giving advice
• AI Limitations: AI may misunderstand context, make mistakes, or provide imperfect suggestions
• Your Responsibility: You make final decisions about gift appropriateness and purchases
• No Guarantees: We don't guarantee recipient satisfaction or gift suitability
• Continuous Learning: AI improves over time but isn't perfect

Usage Guidelines

When using the chatbot:

• Don't share sensitive personal information about yourself or the recipient
• Provide accurate information for better recommendations
• Use your own judgment - don't rely solely on AI for important decisions
• Don't attempt to manipulate or abuse the AI system
• The chatbot is optional - you can browse products without using it

Conversations are stored temporarily (30 days) to generate recommendations and improve the service. See our Privacy Policy for details about data handling.
