Pour Picks
Effective Date: June 3, 2026
These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your use of Pour Picks ("the app"). By using the app, you agree to these Terms.
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.
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.
You control when Pour Picks can send you push notifications. With your permission, we send re-engagement notifications to registered account holders, your nightly pour recommendation, reminders about your cellar, pour-streak reminders, and occasional product updates. (Guest users do not receive push notifications.) Notifications stay off until you both grant notification permission on your device and keep them enabled in the app, and we send at most one re-engagement notification per day. You can turn them off at any time in your device Settings or in the app under Profile → Notifications. Turning notifications off does not limit your ability to use Pour Picks, we never require them.
Pour Picks Pro (also referred to as "Cask Club") is an optional auto-renewing subscription available as a monthly or yearly plan. Key terms:
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.
The Pour Concierge feature, food and beverage pairing recommendations, flavor profiles, tasting notes, and any other output produced by artificial intelligence or third-party models (collectively, "AI Output") are provided for informational and entertainment purposes only.
AI Output may be inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, fabricated, or generated by models that hallucinate facts. We make no representation or warranty as to the accuracy, completeness, reliability, suitability, or availability of any AI Output. You should not rely on AI Output for any decision that could result in financial loss, health consequences, or harm of any kind.
You acknowledge and agree that:
You can correct misidentifications using the in-app correction flow or suggest new bottles for our catalog.
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.
Indemnification by You. You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Pour Picks, its developer, officers, agents, contractors, and affiliates from and against any and all claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs, debts, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from: (i) content you submit, post, or transmit through the app, including reviews, ratings, photos, suggestions, and tasting notes; (ii) your use or misuse of the app, including any AI Output you rely on; (iii) your violation of these Terms; (iv) your violation of any third-party right, including without limitation any intellectual property, publicity, confidentiality, property, or privacy right; (v) your violation of any law, rule, or regulation of the United States or any other country; or (vi) any claim that your User Content caused damage to a third party. This indemnification obligation survives termination of these Terms and your use of the app.
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.
Drink Responsibly
Pour Picks is a reference, identification, and tasting-journal tool only. The app does not sell, distribute, deliver, or facilitate the purchase of alcohol, and nothing in the app should be construed as medical advice or a recommendation to consume alcohol. Drink responsibly. Never drive after drinking.
By using Pour Picks you acknowledge and agree that:
Pour Picks is provided "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. We do not warrant that the app will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that identification results will be accurate. Bottle information (proof, age, mash bill, flavor) is provided for general reference and may not reflect every release, batch, or barrel variation.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL POUR PICKS, ITS DEVELOPER, OWNER, OPERATORS, AGENTS, CONTRACTORS, AFFILIATES, OR ANY PERSON ACTING ON THEIR BEHALF (COLLECTIVELY, THE "POUR PICKS PARTIES") BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION LOST PROFITS, LOST REVENUE, LOST DATA, LOSS OF GOODWILL, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY, DEATH, ILLNESS, ADDICTION, ALLERGIC REACTION, OR EMOTIONAL DISTRESS, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF (OR INABILITY TO USE) THE APP, ANY AI OUTPUT, ANY BOTTLE IDENTIFICATION OR PAIRING SUGGESTION, ANY USER CONTENT, ANY THIRD-PARTY SERVICE INTEGRATED WITH THE APP, OR ANY ACTION YOU TAKE IN RELIANCE ON THE APP, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, EVEN IF THE POUR PICKS PARTIES HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
IN ANY EVENT, THE TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF THE POUR PICKS PARTIES FOR ANY AND ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE APP SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU ACTUALLY PAID TO POUR PICKS IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) FIVE U.S. DOLLARS ($5.00).
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT YOU USE THE APP AT YOUR OWN RISK, AND THAT THESE LIMITATIONS ARE AN ESSENTIAL BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN YOU AND POUR PICKS. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES; IN SUCH JURISDICTIONS OUR LIABILITY IS LIMITED TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.
You may delete your account at any time from the Profile screen within the app. Tap Delete Account and confirm. Deletion permanently removes all your data including cellar entries, tasting reviews, scan history, quiz results, and bottle suggestions. This action cannot be undone.
Deleting your account does not cancel an active App Store subscription , manage subscriptions in Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions.
We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be communicated through the app. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York, United States, without regard to conflict of law provisions.
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS.
(a) Informal Resolution First. Before filing any claim, you agree to first contact us at support@pourpicks.app and attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute informally for at least sixty (60) days.
(b) Binding Arbitration. Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of the app that cannot be resolved informally shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. The arbitration shall take place in New York County, New York, or by remote/video hearing at the consumer's election. The arbitrator's decision is final and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
(c) CLASS ACTION WAIVER. YOU AND POUR PICKS AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE SHALL BE BROUGHT ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS ONLY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE PERSON OR PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING.
(d) Carve-Outs. Either party may bring an individual action in small-claims court for a covered dispute, or seek injunctive relief in court to protect intellectual property rights. Apple is not a party to any arbitration under these Terms.
(e) 30-Day Opt-Out. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by emailing support@pourpicks.app within thirty (30) days of first accepting these Terms with the subject "ARBITRATION OPT-OUT" and including your account email. Opting out does not affect any other provision of these Terms.
(f) One-Year Limitations Period. Any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the app must be filed within one (1) year after the cause of action accrues, or be permanently barred.
(a) Entire Agreement. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any in-app disclosures, constitute the entire agreement between you and Pour Picks regarding the app, superseding any prior agreement.
(b) Severability. If any provision is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force and effect.
(c) No Waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of our right to do so later.
(d) Assignment. You may not assign these Terms. We may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, sale of assets, or by operation of law.
(e) Force Majeure. We are not liable for any failure or delay caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including without limitation acts of God, war, terrorism, civil unrest, pandemic, labor disputes, power or network outages, third-party service failures (including Supabase, Anthropic, RevenueCat, Apple, or Google), or government action.

(g) No Third-Party Beneficiaries; Apple. Except that Apple and Apple's subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms solely for the purpose of enforcing them with respect to your use of the app on Apple devices, there are no third-party beneficiaries to these Terms.
(h) Apple App Store. Your right to use the app on Apple devices is governed by Apple's standard End User License Agreement, as it may be amended. These Terms supplement that license. To the extent of any conflict between these Terms and Apple's standard EULA on a topic Apple's EULA governs, Apple's EULA controls for that topic only.
