Effective and last updated: October 18, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how TrySpree ("TrySpree," "we," "us" or "our") handles personal data when you visit tryspree.com, create or use an account, ask us to claim an offer with "TrySpree It!", post comments, receive our emails or notifications, or contact us (together, the "Services").
TrySpree and FreebieAgent (freebieagent.com) are run by the same company on one shared system. That company is responsible for the personal data described here. Brands, retailers and other websites you visit from TrySpree handle your data under their own privacy policies.
TrySpree app in ChatGPT and Codex
The TrySpree app is a public, read-only sample finder. No TrySpree account is required. It does not access your account, profile, shipping details or claim history, submit forms, claim samples, make purchases or modify records.
Inputs and outputs by tool. search receives optional search keywords, category, sorting choice and result limit and returns matching public offers. fetch receives a numeric public listing ID and returns that listing when available. render_freebie_finder receives the same optional arguments as search and returns public offers with an interactive carousel. find_similar_freebies receives a public listing ID and optional limit and returns related offers. Each tool also receives the ordinary MCP request identifier and method fields. Search text is normalized and capped at 80 characters; calls return at most 10 offers.
Outputs contain only a summary and public listing fields: listing ID, title, description, category, quality or rating signals, listing date, image URL, TrySpree product-page URL, and the public offer URL and host when available. We do not receive your full conversation unless its content is included in a tool argument. Please do not include personal or sensitive information in search text.
Images and links. The carousel loads listing images through TrySpree's image proxy using the public listing ID. It does not set TrySpree cookies, load advertising, analytics or session-recording scripts, collect form data or query user profiles. Opening a TrySpree listing or brand website is your choice; those pages follow their own website privacy practices.
Purpose and recipients. Inputs are used to search, filter and rank the public catalog, retrieve listings, render results, prevent abuse and troubleshoot failures. OpenAI sends tool calls and receives responses, Vercel hosts the app endpoint and image proxy, and Supabase stores and serves the public catalog.
Retention. We do not save app search text, tool inputs or tool outputs to the application database or AI-usage ledger. The application processes them for the request. Hosting and security services may retain limited technical request metadata, including IP address, path, time, user agent, response status and error details, for up to 30 days for security and reliability. OpenAI applies its own retention rules to conversations and tool calls.
Your choices. You can avoid invoking the app, remove or disconnect it, delete conversations through OpenAI's controls, and contact info@tryspree.com for privacy requests.
1. One Account for TrySpree and FreebieAgent
Your TrySpree account also works on FreebieAgent, and a FreebieAgent account also works on TrySpree. Your login, profile and shipping details are stored once and used by both sites, so you only keep them up to date in one place. If you had an account on both sites with the same email address, the two were joined into one account. Comments, likes and "tried it" activity stay on the site where you posted them.
If you were a member of the earlier TrySpree site, we moved your account, profile, comments, likes, "tried it" activity, email preferences and notification subscriptions to this system. Passwords were moved only as one-way encrypted hashes, never as readable passwords. Unsubscribes and bounced addresses from the earlier site were carried over and are still honored.
2. Information We Collect
- Account and sign-in: email address, username, account ID, sign-in records and account dates. Our authentication provider processes your password; we never see a readable copy.
- Profile and shipping details you provide: such as first and last name, phone number, birthday, street address, apartment or unit, city, state, ZIP code, avatar and notification preferences.
- "TrySpree It!" claims and consent: the offer you asked us to claim, its status and time, which fields the offer needed, when you agreed to the claiming terms, and limited technical details used to check whether the request went through (such as the page address and a short text excerpt shown after submitting). We never ask for or store payment-card details for sample claims.
- Community activity: comments, likes, "tried it" clicks and offers you post, with your username and account ID. Your username, avatar, comments, posted offers and posting times are public on the offer and on your profile page.
- Email and push notifications: email preferences, delivery, bounce, complaint and unsubscribe records, and for browser notifications the subscription address and encryption keys your browser provides.
- Usage, device and diagnostics: pages and offers viewed, searches, sorting choices, clicks, browser and device type, IP address, approximate location derived from it, performance measurements, errors and security logs.
- Advertising and cookies: cookie and device identifiers used by our analytics and advertising partners (see section 6).
- Messages you send us: your name, email address and whatever you include in your message.
We collect this from you, from your browser or device, and from the service providers listed in section 4. We also create limited derived data, such as offer rankings and approximate location.
3. How We Use It
- Run, secure, maintain and fix the Services.
- Create and sign in to your account and remember your preferences.
- Find, rank, describe and display free-sample offers.
- Submit a sample request form on a brand's website, only after you click "TrySpree It!" and confirm that specific offer.
- Track claim status, prevent duplicate requests and look into failures.
- Show your comments, likes and profile to other visitors.
- Send the emails and notifications you signed up for (such as new free samples), and occasional emails inviting past members back, and honor every unsubscribe.
- Answer your messages and privacy requests.
- Measure site performance, advertising and how people use the site, so we can improve it.
- Prevent fraud, spam, abuse and security incidents, and comply with the law.
Where the law requires a legal basis, we rely on providing the service you ask for, your consent, our legal obligations, and our legitimate interest in running, securing and improving the Services. You can withdraw consent at any time; this does not affect what we did before.
4. Who We Share It With
We do not sell your personal data for money. We share it only as follows:
- Brands and retailers, when you use "TrySpree It!": only the profile details that offer's form asks for, such as your name, email, mailing address, phone number or birthday. Their privacy policy then applies to what they receive.
- FreebieAgent: your shared account and profile, as described in section 1.
- Supabase: database, sign-in and file storage.
- Vercel: website hosting, scheduled jobs, performance measurement, and the temporary browser that submits "TrySpree It!" requests.
- Amazon Web Services: sends our emails and processes delivery, bounce, complaint and unsubscribe records.
- Google: Google Analytics measures site activity; Google AdSense may show and measure ads; Google's AI models help write and illustrate offer listings and, only when a claim can't be checked automatically, read a short excerpt of the brand's page after submitting, with your known profile details removed first.
- Other AI providers (such as Anthropic and OpenAI): process public offer information to write descriptions and other site content. We do not send them your profile.
- FullStory, when enabled: records how visitors use pages so we can find problems. For signed-in members it may receive your account ID and email.
- Browserbase and CAPTCHA-solving services: some "TrySpree It!" requests run in a temporary Browserbase browser, which processes the details entered into the brand's form. If a CAPTCHA blocks a request, a solving service receives the page address and CAPTCHA details, never your profile.
- Cloudflare: Turnstile checks sign-ins and forms for bots.
- Your browser's push service: delivers the notifications you turn on.
- Other visitors: your username, avatar, comments, posted offers and posting times are public. Please don't put personal information in comments.
- Legal and business: advisers, authorities or others when reasonably needed to comply with the law, enforce our terms, protect rights and safety, or as part of a merger, sale or reorganization with appropriate protections.
Advertising cookies may count as a "sale" or "sharing" of personal data under some state laws. Section 6 explains how to limit them.
5. How Long We Keep It
- Account, profile, claims and community activity: while your account is open. When you delete your account, we delete your login, profile, claims, comments and notification subscriptions, and remove you from our email list. Likes, "tried it" counts and offers you posted stay on the Site without your name.
- Temporary claim browser: deleted when each claim attempt ends. The brand keeps what it received under its own policy.
- Server and security logs: up to 30 days. Claim diagnostics without your identity: up to 24 months.
- Email records: delivery logs up to 24 months. Unsubscribe, bounce and complaint records are kept as long as needed so we never email you again after you opt out.
- Push subscriptions: until you turn notifications off, the subscription stops working, or you delete your account.
- Analytics and session recordings: up to 14 months; anonymous totals may be kept longer.
- Messages to us: up to 24 months after they're resolved.
- Backups: deleted data can remain in encrypted backups for up to 90 days.
We may keep data longer when the law requires it, to settle a dispute, or during a security or fraud investigation.
6. Cookies, Ads and Your Choices
We use essential cookies to keep you signed in, analytics cookies (Google Analytics, Vercel Speed Insights and, when enabled, FullStory), and advertising cookies (Google AdSense). Google and its partners may use cookies or device identifiers to show and measure ads based on your activity on this and other sites.
You can block or delete cookies in your browser, and manage personalized ads at Google's My Ad Center or YourAdChoices. Blocking essential cookies stops sign-in from working. You can also email us with the subject "Opt Out of Sale or Sharing." Browsers' "Do Not Track" signals have no single standard, so we don't respond to them.
7. Your Rights and Choices
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access or get a copy of your data, correct it, delete it, withdraw consent, object to or limit some uses, opt out of marketing, targeted ads or a "sale" or "sharing" of data, and appeal our decision on a request. We won't treat you differently for using these rights.
- Update your profile on your Settings page.
- Delete your account from your Profile page. Because accounts are shared, this deletes it on both TrySpree and FreebieAgent.
- Stop marketing emails with the unsubscribe link in any email.
- Stop notifications in your browser settings.
For any other request, email info@tryspree.com with the subject "Privacy Request," the email address on your account, and what you'd like us to do. Never send us your password. We may verify your identity first, and we aim to respond within 45 days or sooner if the law requires. Where the law allows, someone you authorize may make a request for you.
In the past 12 months we may have collected these categories of data: identifiers and contact details, account and profile records, claim activity, internet activity, approximate location, public posts, and inferences such as which offers interest you. Sources, purposes and recipients are described in sections 2 to 4. We do not knowingly sell or share data of anyone under 16.
8. Security
We protect data with encrypted connections, access controls, database row-level security, restricted service credentials and by collecting only what we need. No system is completely secure, so we can't guarantee absolute security.
9. Where Data Is Processed
We and our service providers process data in the United States and other countries where they operate, whose laws may differ from yours. Where required, we use legally recognized safeguards for these transfers.
10. Children
TrySpree accounts are for people 18 and older. We don't knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If you think a child has given us personal data, contact us and we will delete it.
11. Our Social Media, YouTube and TikTok
TrySpree posts its own photos and videos to its accounts on Instagram, Facebook and YouTube. We post to YouTube using YouTube API Services. We don't collect or store information about you through these accounts or through YouTube. When you watch or interact with our posts there, that platform's own terms and privacy policy apply, including the YouTube Terms of Service and the Google Privacy Policy.
Posting to your own TikTok. TrySpree also posts to its own TikTok account. If you choose to connect your TikTok account ("Post it on TikTok" after you get a freebie), we use TikTok's Login Kit and Content Posting API. We receive your TikTok display name, avatar and a TikTok user ID, plus access tokens that let us post a video only when you tap Post. We store these with your TrySpree account, along with a record of what you posted, and use them only to show who you're posting as and to send the video you approved. We don't read your TikTok videos, followers or messages, and we never post without you. You can disconnect at any time on the posting page, which revokes our access and deletes the tokens; you can also remove TrySpree under Security and permissions in the TikTok app. TikTok's own Terms of Service and Privacy Policy apply to what you post there.
12. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy when the Services or the law change. We will post the new version here and update the date above. If a change materially affects how we use information you already gave us, we will email you before it applies and tell you your options.
