Information Freehub may process

Freehub may use analytics tools to understand page views, clicks, device types and broad usage patterns. This helps us improve pages and find broken journeys.

If you contact us by email, we receive the information you choose to send, such as your email address, message and any page URLs included.

Optional Freehub accounts

Freehub may offer optional account features, such as saving a competition, hiding ignored competitions or storing competition alert preferences. You do not need a Freehub account to browse listings, open competition detail pages or click through to official promoter pages.

If you choose to sign in, Freehub may store your account identifier, email address, display name, sign-in provider, saved competition IDs, ignored competition IDs, alert preferences, consent records and basic timestamps needed to run those optional features.

Sign-in providers

Freehub may support Google, Facebook and email-link sign-in through Firebase Authentication. Email-link sign-in sends a one-time sign-in link to the email address you provide, instead of asking Freehub to store a password.

The provider you choose may process your sign-in under its own terms and privacy policy. Freehub does not add phone or SMS authentication for account sign-in.

Saved, ignored and alert preferences

Saved competitions help you return to listings you chose to keep. Ignored competition IDs help Freehub hide listings you chose not to see again while signed in. Alert preferences help Freehub remember whether you asked for competition alerts or occasional updates.

The Privacy Policy checkbox is required before using optional account features. The alerts and marketing checkbox is optional and should not be pre-ticked.

Competition entries

Freehub does not collect or process entries for the competitions listed on the site. When you click through, the promoter's own privacy policy and terms apply.

Do not send identity numbers, banking details, passwords or competition entries to Freehub unless we have specifically requested information for a listing correction.

Cookies and analytics

The site may use cookies or similar technologies through analytics and measurement tools. These are used to understand site performance and user journeys.

Unsubscribe and preferences

If Freehub sends alerts or marketing emails in future, those messages should include a way to unsubscribe or change preferences. You can also contact hello@freehub.co.za to ask for account preference help.

Freehub may keep limited records needed for security, abuse prevention, consent history, legal compliance or to confirm that a preference change was handled.

Freehub is not the promoter

Freehub lists public competition information and links users to official promoter pages. The promoter remains responsible for entry forms, eligibility checks, winner selection, prize fulfilment and its own privacy notices.
