Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how frugalspot (“we”, “us”) collects, uses, and protects your information when you use our platform. By using frugalspot, you agree to the practices described here.

Information we collect

When you create an account, we collect the information you provide:

  • Your name and email address.
  • Content you create — deals you submit, votes you cast, and comments you post.
  • Device and usage data, such as browser type and pages you visit, used to improve the site and detect abuse.

How we use your information

  • To create and manage your account and keep you logged in.
  • To let you submit deals, vote, and participate in the community.
  • To display leaderboards and community rankings.
  • To keep the platform safe and enforce our Terms of Service.
  • To improve our product and fix bugs.

Cookies and local storage

We use your browser's local storage to keep you signed in so you don't have to log in again on each visit. We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

Sharing of information

Your public profile — such as your name, submitted deals, and community reputation — is visible to other users as part of the social features of the platform. We do not share your contact details with third parties for marketing purposes.

Your choices

You may delete your account and remove the content you have created at any time. Because content is community-facing, votes and public comments linked to your account may remain visible in aggregate.
