Terms of Service
Last updated: June 11, 2026
maketheir.day lets you build a private gift website for someone you care about. By using the service you agree to these terms. The short version: pay once, the site lives for a year, your words stay yours, and don't use it to hurt anyone.
The service
A gift is a single web page on a maketheir.day address you choose. You create it for free as a draft; publishing it requires a one-time payment of $9.99 (USD). A published gift stays online for 12 months from publication and includes all sections, photo uploads, the countdown unlock, the optional secret word, and a printable PDF keepsake.
Drafts and addresses
- A draft softly reserves its address for 48 hours from the last edit. The reservation becomes permanent when you pay.
- Drafts untouched for 60 days are deleted, including uploaded photos.
- Addresses are unique per connector word; released addresses may be claimed by others.
After the 12 months
When the paid period ends, the public page shows a neutral "this gift is sleeping" notice for a 30-day grace period, during which you can renew for another 12 months on the same address. After the grace period the photos and content are permanently deleted and the address is released.
Payments and refunds
Payments are processed by Stripe; we never see your card details. The service begins immediately after payment (your gift goes live), so the statutory withdrawal right for digital services supplied immediately does not apply once publication has happened. If something went wrong with your purchase, write to us — we're reasonable people: hello@maketheir.day.
Your content
- Everything you write and upload remains yours. You grant us only the technical license needed to host and display it to the people you share the link with.
- You must have the right to use the photos and texts you upload, including the consent of people depicted where required.
- Illegal content, harassment, hate, or sexual content involving minors is prohibited and will be removed without refund. Every gift page carries a report link; we review reports and may unpublish content at our discretion.
Liability
We run the service with care but provide it "as is". To the extent permitted by law, our liability is limited to the amount you paid in the last 12 months. We are not liable for content created by users.
Changes
We may update these terms; material changes will be announced by email to account holders. Continued use after a change means acceptance.
