I have turned off alot of times the promotion stuff. Yet gog keeps enabling them without my permission. Stop with this nonsense!!!!!!!!!

Really i am getting tired of this!

If you claimed one of the recent free games, you gave them permission to enable the mail settings again.

Dosen't the giveaways enable emails ?

You are turning it on yourself by claiming free games. There is always appropriate information just above the big green "gimme the freebie" button.

As InkPanther said: YOU turn it on YOURSELF, each time YOU claim a free game:

I never had mails when i claimed a free game. It something from the last 2 weeks.

User Error :)

If you do not want the advertisement from GOG and their partners, you must turn OFF the settings after each time you claim a free game.

Here are the settings:

It's because GoG introduced marketing from "trusted partners" roughly a week or two ago.
See previous discussion here

Especially take note of BreOl72's before-and-after comparison of the agreement here.

No, they've been doing this for years. Nope, that's an additional thing. Now you have to uncheck two boxes, before you had to uncheck one box. But enabling GOG to send emails by claiming a free game has been a thing for a long time. There was even a bunch of discussion and complaints about it. People have short memories.

I have everything turned off and i tend to still get spam from GoG.

Well, lucky you. But by claiminig a free game, you agree ot emails.

There have been more mails than usual during the last weeks, but you only get them, if the options are activated.

After claiming a free game, go to your account, orders & settings and deactivate the subscription options. Problem solved.

I don't care. I just read those promotional GOG emails to my son in the evening, and he falls asleep in no time.

Such as? The only two types of email I ever get from GOG are "Your order #xxxxxxxxxx is complete!", "Free items added to your GOG.com library", and absolutely nothing else.

That's really hard to believe.

I created a GOG account for my son in December 2019.

That account (and the e-mail address attached to it) is solely used for claiming all the freebies (and the occasional gift from me to him).

Since the day I created that account with that e-mail address, there have been ZERO advertisement, etc. e-mails from GOG to that e-mail address (aside from the obligatory: "Free items added to your GOG.com library", of course).

That's almost four years now, without any GOG related (spam) e-mails.

And since that e-mail address is solely used for GOG, and GOG apparently also doesn't sell our addresses to others, there were also ZERO spam mails from other sources in that entire time (aside from "in-house" advertisements for services from my e-mail provider itself, of course).

That e-mail adress used solely for GOG is the most pristine among all my e-mail addresses.

Edit: one small correction.
There actually was one other e-mail from GOG.
The announcement of updates to their "User Agreement and Privacy Policy" in regard to Galaxy 2.0.

You know: the kind of e-mail I wish they would have sent in regard to their "updated user agreement and privacy policy", in regard of claiming free games.
