Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 14, 2026

Overview

Sweepstakes Hunter is an editorial directory of publicly available sweepstakes. We help users discover, filter, and organize sweepstakes listings. We do not sponsor, host, administer, submit, process, or judge entries for sweepstakes listed in the app.

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and retain information when you use the Sweepstakes Hunter app, website, APIs, support channels, subscription features, and related services.

Information Stored on Your Device

The app may store saved contests, self-reported Hunt Log activity, entry counts you manually record, sponsor-stated limit progress, daily-entry reminder times, winner-check reminder dates, settings, notification preferences, recently viewed items, and optional AMOE profile information locally on your device. Optional AMOE profile information may include name, mailing address, email, phone number, date of birth, age or eligibility preferences, and notes you choose to enter. This profile is used for reference-only official-rules checklists, deadline planning, personal planning notes, and local organization. The app does not submit profile information, Hunt Log records, or entry information to sweepstakes sponsors. Hunt Log cannot verify sponsor receipt, successful submission, eligibility, or compliance with official rules.

Usage, Diagnostics, Purchases, and Logs

When you create or use a web account, our account-authentication provider processes account identifiers such as email address, display username, authentication session data, email verification status, password reset events, and related security logs. Sweepstakes Hunter does not store plaintext passwords. A free web account does not require payment information, and paid web checkout remains separately controlled.

If analytics or diagnostics are enabled, we may collect product usage events, app instance identifiers, device and operating-system information, screens viewed, filters used, saved-list actions, upgrade prompts, notification interactions, crash reports, performance data, and error events. On the public website, we record privacy-limited app-store button events: the selected marketplace, button location, time, and campaign tags included in the page URL. These first-party events do not include an account identifier, advertising identifier, full referrer URL, or the destination marketplace account.

If you affirmatively allow optional advertising analytics, the public marketing pages may also load TikTok Pixel. TikTok may then receive page URLs, campaign tags, browser and device details, IP-derived approximate location, TikTok cookie or click identifiers, page views, and app-store button interactions. We do not configure the Pixel to receive your Sweepstakes Hunter account information, AMOE profile, contest searches, saved contests, Hunt Log records, payment details, or sponsor-entry activity. TikTok processes this information under its own privacy terms.

If you subscribe to Pro or Max Assist, app marketplaces and subscription providers may process purchase and subscription status information. We may receive subscription entitlement status, product identifiers, renewal state, purchase history, app-user identifiers, and related transaction metadata needed to unlock paid app features, validate paid web access, prevent fraud, provide support, and maintain subscription records. We do not receive your full payment card number.

When the app or website communicates with our API, our servers, hosting providers, security providers, and logging tools may process technical information such as IP address, approximate location inferred from IP address, request time, route, user agent, device or browser type, response status, error logs, rate-limit data, and abuse-prevention signals.

Support Communications

If you contact us, we may collect your email address, name, message content, attachments, screenshots, app version, device details, subscription status, and other information you choose to provide so we can respond and keep support records.

Categories of Personal Information

• Identifiers, such as email address, app instance ID, device identifiers, IP address, or subscription identifiers.
• Account information, such as display username, authentication session status, and password reset or email verification events if web account access is enabled.
• Commercial information, such as subscription product identifiers, entitlement status, and purchase metadata.
• Internet or electronic network activity, such as app usage events, API requests, diagnostics, and interactions with app features.
• Approximate location, such as coarse location inferred from IP address.
• User-provided content, such as support messages, feedback, screenshots, or optional notes you choose to send us.
• Inferences, such as saved preferences or feature-interest signals derived from app interactions.

How We Use Information

We use information to provide app features, unlock subscriptions, provide support, maintain app security and reliability, prevent abuse, improve source coverage and user experience, monitor feature usage and errors, comply with platform or legal obligations, and protect the rights, safety, and integrity of users, Sweepstakes Hunter, platforms, vendors, sponsors, and third parties.

Sharing and Disclosure

We may disclose information to service providers that help us operate the app, website, API, hosting, storage, analytics, diagnostics, security, notifications, support, and email; payment and subscription providers; professional advisors; authorities or platforms when required or appropriate for safety, fraud prevention, legal process, or rights protection; and successors in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, bankruptcy, or sale of assets.

We do not sell personal information. Optional TikTok advertising measurement may be treated as sharing, targeted advertising, or cross-context behavioral advertising under some U.S. state privacy laws. It remains off unless you select “Allow analytics,” and you can withdraw that choice through the “Privacy choices” control on public marketing pages.

Sweepstakes Entries

Sweepstakes Hunter does not prepare entry materials for submission, mail entries, submit entries, process entries, purchase entries, buy contest credit, increase odds, administer sweepstakes, or award prizes. Users participate only outside the app through each sponsor's official site and official rules.

Analytics, Advertising Measurement, and Privacy Signals

Core public pages work without optional advertising analytics. TikTok Pixel is not loaded until you select “Allow analytics.” You may later change your choice through the “Privacy choices” control. Choosing “Decline” prevents the Pixel from loading on future page views and removes first-party TikTok cookies that are accessible to our site. If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we treat optional advertising analytics as declined even if you previously selected “Allow analytics.”

We currently use TikTok Pixel for aggregate campaign measurement and app-store-button performance, without advanced matching or customer-list uploads. If we materially expand advertising uses or engage in additional activities that qualify as sale, sharing, targeted advertising, or profiling requiring opt-out rights, we will update this policy and provide required choices before doing so.

Data Retention and Security

We retain information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. Local app data remains on your device until you delete it, reset app storage, or uninstall the app. Subscription, support, analytics, diagnostics, server-log, and security records are retained according to our operational needs and service-provider retention settings.

We use reasonable safeguards designed to protect information. No app, website, network, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Your Choices

You can delete or edit local profile/settings data in the app, delete saved contests and Hunt Log records where controls are available, turn off notifications in device settings, manage or cancel subscriptions through your marketplace account, limit analytics or diagnostics where app/device/platform settings provide those controls, reset your web-account password, delete a web account through the account page when signed in, and contact us to make privacy requests.

Web accounts remain separate from the initial mobile experience unless we expressly introduce synchronization later. Mobile saved contests, Hunt Log records, reminders, AMOE profile details, and purchases do not transfer to a web account at launch.

U.S. State Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live and whether a specific state privacy law applies to us, you may have rights to know or confirm whether we process personal information about you; access or receive a copy of personal information; correct inaccurate personal information; delete personal information; opt out of sale, sharing, targeted advertising, certain profiling, or certain sensitive-data processing where applicable; limit use of sensitive personal information where applicable; appeal a denied privacy request where applicable; and not be discriminated against for exercising privacy rights.

To make a request, email andre@sweepstakeshunter.com with the subject line "Privacy Request." We may need to verify your identity and request details before responding. Authorized agents may submit requests where permitted by law, but we may require proof of authorization and verification of the consumer's identity. If we deny a request and your state law provides an appeal right, you may appeal by replying to our decision email with the subject line "Privacy Appeal."

California Notice

This section is intended to support California notice-at-collection and privacy-policy expectations if California law applies to us. We may collect the categories listed above for the business and commercial purposes described in this policy and disclose them to the categories of recipients listed above. We do not knowingly sell or share personal information of consumers under 16. We do not currently sell personal information or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. We do not use sensitive personal information to infer characteristics.

Children and International Users

Sweepstakes Hunter is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Sweepstakes Hunter is intended for users in the United States unless we state otherwise. If you use the service from outside the United States, your information may be processed in the United States or other countries where our service providers operate.

Third-Party Links

The app links to sponsor websites, official rules, app marketplace pages, subscription management services, and other third-party services. Third-party services are controlled by their own operators and have their own privacy practices. Review each third party's terms and privacy policy before providing information.

Changes

We may update this policy from time to time. We will update the effective date when changes are made. If we make material changes, we will provide notice as required by law or platform rules.
