Terms of Service

Agreement to These Terms

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) are an agreement between you and Wedding Parlay (“Wedding Parlay”, “we”, “us”). They govern your use of weddingparlay.com and the wedding sites we host at weddingparlay.com/w/ (together, the “Service”).

By creating an account, purchasing a wedding site, or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree to them, do not use the Service.

Our Privacy Policy is incorporated into these Terms by reference.

The Service

Wedding Parlay provides a hosted website on which your guests submit predictions about your wedding day. You write the questions, your guests submit entries before the event, you record the actual outcomes, and the Service scores the entries and publishes a leaderboard.

The Service is provided for entertainment purposes. It is not a betting or gambling service, a licensed gaming operator, a lottery, a sweepstake we administer, or a financial product. We supply software; you operate your own pool and are responsible for how it is run.

Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old and able to enter into a binding contract to purchase a wedding site. By using the Service you represent that you meet these requirements and that you are not barred from using it under the laws of your jurisdiction.

Accounts and Collaborators

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. Notify us promptly at support@weddingparlay.com if you believe your account has been accessed without authorisation.

You may invite collaborators to help administer your wedding site. You remain responsible for their actions on your site, and for ensuring they comply with these Terms. You may remove a collaborator’s access at any time.

You must provide accurate account information and keep your email address current, as it is our primary means of contacting you about the Service.

Fees, Payment, and Refunds

A wedding site costs a one-time fee of US$40 per wedding. The optional guest photo wall is an additional one-time fee of US$10. Fees are exclusive of any taxes we are required to collect, which will be added at checkout.

Payments are processed by Stripe. By purchasing, you authorise Stripe to charge your chosen payment method and you agree to Stripe’s terms. We do not receive or store your full card number.

You may request a full refund on the wedding site fee within 14 days of going live, provided you have not opened entries to guests. The photo wall add-on is subject to the same 14-day condition from its own purchase date. After that period, fees are non-refundable except where required by law. Refund requests should be sent from the email address on your account.

We host your wedding site for a minimum of 12 months from the date your site was created. We will give you at least 30 days’ notice by email before discontinuing hosting of your site.

Entry Money and Prize Pools

We do not collect, hold, transmit, or take any share of the money your guests contribute. Guests pay you directly using whatever method you configure, or you may run your pool for points with no money involved.

You are solely responsible for collecting entry contributions, for holding and distributing any prize pool, and for resolving any dispute with your guests about entries, scoring, or payouts.

You are responsible for ensuring that a paid prize pool is lawful where you and your guests are located, and for any tax or reporting obligations arising from it. If a paid pool is not permitted in your jurisdiction, you may run the Service for points instead.

Your Content

You retain all rights in the questions, guest information, photographs, and other material you or your guests submit to your wedding site (“Your Content”).

You grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, store, reproduce, and display Your Content solely to operate and support the Service for you. This licence ends when Your Content is deleted, except for copies retained in backups for the period described in our Privacy Policy.

You represent that you have the necessary rights and permissions for Your Content, including permission from identifiable individuals appearing in any photograph uploaded to your site. Photographs submitted to the photo wall are not published until approved by you or a collaborator.

We do not use Your Content to train machine learning models, and we do not sell it.

Acceptable Use

You agree not to use the Service to:

• operate a commercial betting, gambling, or gaming business;
• publish content that is unlawful, defamatory, hateful, harassing, obscene, or infringing;
• upload personal information or images of any person without their permission;
• access data belonging to another wedding site, or probe, scan, scrape, or otherwise interfere with the security or integrity of the Service;
• circumvent usage limits, resell or white-label the Service, or misrepresent your affiliation with us;
• transmit malware or use the Service to send unsolicited bulk email.

Our Intellectual Property

The Service, including its software, design, templates, and the Wedding Parlay name and logo, is owned by us and protected by intellectual property laws. Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable right to use the Service for your own wedding.

We reserve all rights not expressly granted. You may not copy, modify, reverse engineer, or create derivative works from the Service except to the extent that restriction is prohibited by law.

Third-Party Services

The Service relies on third-party providers, including Cloudflare for hosting, Stripe for payment processing, and Resend for email delivery. Your use of those services through the Service may also be subject to their terms.

You are responsible for any payment method you direct your guests to use. We do not endorse and are not responsible for third-party payment services, and any dispute arising from them is between you, your guests, and that provider.

Privacy and Data Protection

We handle personal information as described in our Privacy Policy.

Where data protection law applies, you act as the controller of the personal information your guests submit to your wedding site, and we act as your processor in respect of it. You are responsible for having a lawful basis for collecting that information and for telling your guests how it will be used. Our data processing agreement is available on request and forms part of these Terms where it applies to you.

Service Availability and Disclaimers

We aim to keep the Service available at all times, and particularly on wedding days, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue parts of the Service for maintenance or operational reasons.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Service is provided “as is” and “as available”, and we disclaim all warranties, whether express, implied, or statutory, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

Because no online service is guaranteed, we recommend printing the QR cards included with your site as a backup for the day itself.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will not exceed the amount you paid us in the 12 months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.

We will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill, or prize money, whether or not we were advised of the possibility of such damages.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited, including liability for fraud or for death or personal injury caused by negligence. If you are a consumer, these Terms do not affect your statutory rights.

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Wedding Parlay and its officers, employees, and agents from any claim, demand, loss, or expense, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of your use of the Service, Your Content, your operation of a prize pool, or your breach of these Terms or of any applicable law.

Suspension and Termination

You may stop using the Service at any time and may request deletion of your account and wedding site by contacting us. Deletion is carried out as described in our Privacy Policy.

We may suspend or terminate your access if you materially breach these Terms, in particular Section 8, or where required by law. Where practical we will give notice and an opportunity to remedy the breach first. If we terminate your site without cause, we will refund the fees you paid for it.

Sections that by their nature should survive termination — including Section 7, Section 13, Section 14, and Section 17 — continue to apply.

Changes to the Service and These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. The date at the top of this page shows when they were last revised.

If a change materially affects your rights or obligations, we will notify you by email at least 14 days before it takes effect. Continued use of the Service after that date constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms. If you do not accept them, you may stop using the Service and request deletion of your site.

Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of British Columbia, Canada, without regard to its conflict of law rules. The courts of British Columbia, Canada have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising from them, except that if you are a consumer resident elsewhere, you may also bring proceedings in the courts of your country of residence and benefit from any mandatory protections of its law.

Before commencing formal proceedings, we ask that you contact us so we can attempt to resolve the matter informally.

If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it. These Terms, together with the documents referred to in Section 1, are the entire agreement between us. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
