Terms & Conditions

Welcome to ClickTheWheel. These Terms & Conditions explain how you may use our wheel spinner and random picker, what you can expect from the service, and how we handle shared rooms.

Last updated: January 17, 2026

1) Who we are (and who we are not)

ClickTheWheel is an independent web app for spinning a wheel and selecting a random result. We built ClickTheWheel with our own design, features, and user experience.

We are not a gambling operator, a payment processor, or an event organizer. ClickTheWheel provides a random selection tool; you are responsible for how you use it and for complying with the rules of your platform (for example, classroom policies, workplace guidelines, or giveaway/promotion rules).

2) Acceptance of these terms

By using ClickTheWheel, you agree to these Terms & Conditions. If you do not agree, please do not use the service.

3) Using ClickTheWheel

ClickTheWheel is intended for legitimate, friendly use: making decisions, running classroom activities, selecting giveaway winners, brainstorming, icebreakers, team selection, and similar use cases.

To keep the service safe and AdSense-friendly, do not use ClickTheWheel to create or distribute content that is illegal, deceptive, hateful, sexually explicit, or designed to harm people. If you share a room link publicly, strangers may join; only share links where you are comfortable with the audience.

  • Be respectful: do not add hateful, harassing, or illegal content to entries.
  • Don’t abuse the service: do not attempt to disrupt the app, scrape it at scale, or overload the sharing system.
  • Use sharing responsibly: shared rooms are for your participants. Avoid posting links publicly if you do not want strangers joining.

4) Prohibited content and conduct

You agree not to use ClickTheWheel to create, store, share, or promote content that is unlawful, infringing, or harmful. This includes (but is not limited to) hateful or harassing content, sexual content involving minors, instructions for wrongdoing, fraud, impersonation, malware links, or attempts to manipulate outcomes.

You also agree not to interfere with ads or encourage invalid traffic (for example, asking users to click ads). Ads must remain clearly distinguishable from navigation and interactive controls.

5) Entries, results, and fairness

ClickTheWheel is designed so each entry has an equal chance of being selected for a given spin (unless you intentionally change the entries between spins).

We do our best to provide a smooth, consistent experience across devices and browsers. However, you understand that software and networks can behave differently in different environments, and you should always verify the setup before a high-stakes use (e.g., a live stream giveaway or a classroom test).

If you are running a giveaway or promotion, you are responsible for announcing rules, eligibility, and winner verification. ClickTheWheel does not verify identities, handle payments, or guarantee compliance with local laws.

6) Sharing rooms (host and guests)

ClickTheWheel supports real-time sharing through a room link. In shared sessions, there is a host and one or more guests.

  • Host controls the session: depending on the entry mode, the host typically controls spinning and editing.
  • Guests participate: guests may view the wheel and (in certain modes) contribute names/entries as designed.
  • Room links: anyone with the link may be able to join. Treat the link like an invite.

Rooms may be removed when the host stops sharing, and inactive guests may be removed automatically. This helps keep sessions tidy and reduces “ghost” participants.

You are responsible for content entered into shared rooms. If you use shared rooms in a classroom, workplace, or live stream, consider using a moderator and reviewing entries before spinning.

7) Privacy basics (plain-English)

ClickTheWheel is built to be lightweight and privacy-friendly. Many settings and wheel data are stored locally in your browser so you can return later without creating an account.

When you use sharing, the wheel state is synced so everyone in the room sees the same wheel. To do that, we store only the information needed to run the room (for example, entries and nicknames). Please avoid entering sensitive personal information.

For details, please read our Privacy Policy, including information about advertising cookies and your choices.

8) Third‑party services

We may rely on third‑party infrastructure (for example, real‑time databases) to provide sharing. Those providers may process limited technical data required to deliver the service. We choose providers carefully and aim to keep the app simple.

7.1) Cloud infrastructure (AWS & Google Cloud)

ClickTheWheel is hosted using third‑party cloud infrastructure providers such as Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Google Cloud Platform (GCP). We rely on their security and resiliency features (for example, redundancy, monitoring, and access controls) as part of delivering a stable service.

7.2) Supabase

ClickTheWheel uses Supabase (supabase.com) for real-time synchronization when you share wheels. Supabase stores room data, user nicknames, and activity timestamps. Please review Supabase's privacy policy for details about their data handling.

7.3) Google AdSense

ClickTheWheel may display advertisements through Google AdSense. Google uses cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your visits to ClickTheWheel and other sites. These ads help us keep ClickTheWheel free for all users.

We do not ask users to click ads and we do not place ads in a way that is intended to be mistaken for navigation, buttons, or interactive controls. If you ever see an ad that looks misleading or inappropriate, please report it via our feedback form.

Your choices: You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ad Settings. You can also opt out of third-party vendor use of cookies by visiting Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page.

Please review Google's Privacy Policy and How Google uses data for information about how Google handles your data when you visit sites that use AdSense.

9) Intellectual property

The ClickTheWheel app, design, and site content are protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may not copy, resell, or redistribute the service without permission.

You retain rights to the text you enter as wheel entries. However, you are responsible for ensuring you have the right to use that content (for example, do not upload copyrighted lists or someone else’s personal data without permission).

10) Disclaimers

ClickTheWheel is provided “as is” and “as available.” We do not guarantee uninterrupted operation or that the service will be error‑free. For important events, please test your setup in advance.

11) Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, ClickTheWheel will not be liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages arising out of or related to your use of the service. In all cases, our liability is limited to the amount you paid to use the service (which is typically $0).

12) Changes to these terms

We may update these Terms from time to time to reflect new features, legal requirements, or security improvements. When we update them, we will revise the “Last updated” date above.
