Privacy Policy
Last updated: 26 July 2026
FreeTender (“we”, “us”, “our”) operates the website freetender.net (the “Service”), a free, login-free platform for discovering government and private tender notices. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using the Service you agree to this policy.
Information we collect
Information you provide. If you create a publisher account, submit a tender, subscribe to alerts, or contact us, we collect the details you enter — such as your name, email address, organisation and the content you submit.
Information collected automatically. Like most websites, we and our service providers automatically collect standard log and device data — IP address, browser type, pages visited, referring URLs and timestamps — and similar data via cookies (see below). This helps us keep the Service secure, measure usage and improve it.
We do not require you to log in to browse tenders, and we do not sell your personal information.
Cookies and similar technologies
Cookies are small files stored on your device. We use:
- Essential cookies needed for the site to function (e.g. keeping a signed-in publisher session).
- Analytics cookies to understand how the Service is used.
- Advertising cookies set by our advertising partners (see below).
You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect how the site works.
Advertising — Google AdSense
We use third-party advertising, including Google AdSense, to help keep FreeTender free to use. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.
- Google’s use of advertising cookies (including the DoubleClick cookie) enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this Service and/or other sites on the Internet.
- You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
- You can opt out of a third-party vendor’s use of cookies for personalised advertising at aboutads.info/choices and youronlinechoices.eu.
- For more information, see How Google uses information from sites that use its services.
Third-party ad networks may also place and read cookies on your browser or use web beacons to collect information as a result of ads served on FreeTender.
How we use information
- To operate, maintain and improve the Service.
- To display tender listings, run search and send alerts you request.
- To respond to your enquiries and moderate submitted content.
- To display advertising that helps fund the Service.
- To protect against fraud, abuse and security incidents, and to comply with law.
Third-party links and sources
Tender notices link to their original issuing authority or source portal. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those external websites. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any site you visit.
Data retention & security
We retain personal information only for as long as necessary for the purposes described here, and apply reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect it. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, however, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Your rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete or restrict the use of your personal information, and to object to certain processing. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below.
Children’s privacy
The Service is not directed to children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the “Last updated” date above.
