Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 1, 2026

1. Introduction

Welcome to Free Bounce, operated by Free Bounce LLC ("Free Bounce™," "we," "our," or "us"). This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you visit our website at freebounce.studio (the "Site").

We respect your privacy and are committed to being transparent about our data practices.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Information We DON'T Collect

Free Bounce is a static website. We do not:

• Create user accounts or require login
• Store personal information on our servers
• Track your activity across other websites
• Sell or share your data with third parties

2.2 Analytics (Google Analytics 4)

We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand how visitors use the Site — page views, general traffic patterns, and feature usage.

• GA4 is only loaded after you consent via our cookie banner
• If you choose "Essential Only," no analytics scripts run at all
• IP addresses are anonymized (anonymize_ip: true)
• We do not use GA4 data for advertising or remarketing
• GA4 Measurement ID: G-YBHLWJ0NN4

See Google's Privacy Policy for how Google handles analytics data.

2.3 Local Storage

We use your browser's localStorage to save preferences locally on your device. This data never leaves your browser and you can clear it anytime.

• Cookie consent — remembers your analytics preference
• Sidebar settings — panel visibility and quick-menu configuration
• Free Sample limit — tracks your daily melody download (1 per day)

2.4 Payments (Stripe)

Sound kit purchases are processed through Stripe. When you make a purchase:

• Payment information (card number, billing address) is collected directly by Stripe — we never see or store your full card details
• Stripe may set cookies necessary for payment processing
• See Stripe's Privacy Policy

2.5 Third-Party Services

The Site embeds or links to the following external services. Each has its own privacy policy:

• Vercel (Hosting) — may collect standard server logs. Vercel Privacy Policy
• SoundCloud — embedded playlists and mixes. SoundCloud Privacy Policy
• Spotify — embedded playlists. Spotify Privacy Policy
• Discord — community link (no data is shared with Discord from our site). Discord Privacy Policy
• BeatStars — beat licensing (external link)

3. Cookies

Free Bounce itself does not set cookies. Our analytics (GA4) and payment processor (Stripe) may set cookies, but only after you consent via our cookie banner.

If you select "Essential Only," no third-party analytics cookies are loaded. Stripe cookies are only set during the checkout process.

You can also control cookies through your browser settings.

4. Free Sample Downloads

Our Free Sample feature lets you download one royalty-free melody per day. Downloads are tracked locally in your browser (via localStorage) to enforce the daily limit. No personal information is collected during downloads.

5. Your Rights

For EU/EEA Residents (GDPR)

• Right to Access: Request what data we have about you
• Right to Erasure: Request deletion of your data
• Right to Object: Opt out of analytics via our cookie banner

Since we don't store personal data on our servers, these rights primarily apply to data held by our third-party services (Google, Stripe, Vercel). Contact them directly for data requests.

For California Residents (CCPA)

• We do not sell personal information
• You can opt out of analytics entirely via our cookie banner

6. Children's Privacy

Our Site is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

7. Data Security

All connections to the Site use HTTPS encryption. Since we don't store personal data on our own servers, the primary data security responsibility lies with our third-party providers (Google, Stripe, Vercel), all of whom maintain industry-standard security practices.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date.
