Terms of Service

Effective Date: April 25, 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of Pour Picks ("the app"). By using the app, you agree to these Terms.

1. Eligibility

You must be at least 21 years of age (or the legal drinking age in your jurisdiction, whichever is greater) to use Pour Picks. By creating an account or using the app, you represent that you meet this age requirement. Pour Picks is a whiskey and spirits reference, recommendation, and personal cellar tool; it does not sell, distribute, deliver, or facilitate the sale of alcoholic beverages.

2. Accounts

You may sign in with Apple, Google, or continue as a guest. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials. Guest accounts store data locally on your device; signing in enables cloud sync across devices.

3. Subscriptions

Pour Picks Pro (also referred to as "Cask Club") is an optional auto-renewing subscription available as a monthly or yearly plan. Key terms:

Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase.
Subscriptions automatically renew unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
You can manage subscriptions and turn off auto-renewal in your device's Account Settings.
No refunds are provided for the unused portion of a subscription period. Refund requests must be directed to Apple.
Prices are displayed in your local currency and may vary by region. Price changes take effect at the next renewal.

4. Free Tier

Free accounts include access to the basic quiz, up to 5 bottle scans (10 once signed in), and the ability to track owned bottles in your cellar. Pro features (unlimited scans, advanced quiz, food and pairing recommendations, full cellar filters and statuses, tasting reviews, and journal export) require an active subscription.

5. Bottle Identification

The Pour Concierge feature uses AI to identify whiskey and spirits bottles from photos. Identification results are provided on a best-effort basis and may be incorrect. We make no guarantees about the accuracy of identification results. You can correct misidentifications using the in-app correction flow or suggest new bottles for our catalog.

6. User Content

You retain ownership of content you create (tasting reviews, notes, photos, bottle suggestions). By submitting reviews and ratings, you grant Pour Picks a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to display that content to other users within the app. You may delete your content at any time.

You agree not to submit content that is unlawful, defamatory, obscene, harassing, abusive, objectionable, or that infringes on the intellectual-property rights of others. We have zero tolerance for objectionable content or abusive behavior.

Any user can report content through the in-app "Report" affordance. We review reports within 24 hours and will remove violating content and, where appropriate, restrict or terminate the offending account. We reserve the right to remove content at our discretion.

7. Intellectual Property

The Pour Picks name, logo, design, and code are the property of the Pour Picks team. Distillery names, bottle names, label imagery, and product information are the property of their respective owners and are used for informational and identification purposes only under nominative fair use.
