Privacy notice
This notice explains what we collect when you use LotteryTeller, why, and what you can do about it. Reading results needs no account and no personal information.
If you only read results
You can read every result without an account and without giving us any personal information.
We count visits with Cloudflare Web Analytics, which uses no cookies and doesn't follow you to other websites.
If you switch to the dark theme, your browser remembers that choice on your own device. Unless you save a theme in your account, it is never sent to us.
If you join the waitlist
We use your details only to email you once, when membership opens. We send nothing else before then, and we never sell or rent your address.
When you join, we keep what you give us and a record of your consent:
- Your email address.
- The language of the page you used and the page you joined from.
- When you agreed to be contacted, the wording you agreed to, and your confirmation that you're 21 or older.
If you create an account
If you arrived from another website or from a link with campaign tags, your browser keeps that in this tab, and nothing is sent to us unless you create an account. If you do, we save it with your account: the site that sent you, the campaign and the first page you opened. We use it only to learn how people find LotteryTeller, and it is deleted with your account.
An account is optional. We use what it holds only to run it: to sign you in, send you sign-in codes, show your games, numbers and matches, and keep your settings. We never sell or rent it, and we don't use it for advertising.
The legal basis is our agreement with you under the terms of use, which lets us provide the account you asked for. We keep sign-in security records because we have a legitimate interest in keeping accounts safe.
To limit repeated attempts, whenever a sign-in code is requested or a password is tried we also record a scrambled version of the network address and of the email involved. We use it only to count attempts over ten minutes, and it can't be turned back into either.
If you are signed in, we use the approximate location of your connection, worked out by Cloudflare, only to suggest nearby lotteries. We do not store it.
If you create an account, we keep:
- Your email address, and a password only if you choose to set one. Our sign-in provider stores the password as a one-way hash.
- Your language, time zone and theme.
- When you confirmed you are 21 or older, and which versions of the terms and of this notice you accepted.
- The games you follow, the numbers you monitor with their game, draw times, match rule (straight, box or both) and whether each one is paused or deleted, and the confirmed draws where one of your numbers matched.
- When your current visit started, when your previous visit ended and when you were last active, plus the dates (in UTC) on which your visits started during the last 400 days. A visit starts the first time you open the homepage or any account page while signed in, and again whenever you come back after 30 minutes or more. We use them only to show you what changed since your last visit and to count how many members come back.
- Security records our sign-in provider keeps, such as when you signed in.
- If you work on the site with us, the role we gave you, such as operator.
Cookies
When you sign in, we set a cookie (lt-session) that keeps you signed in. The account can't work without it.
While you sign in, we set lt_signin, and when you pick a number or a game before signing in, we set lt_continue. Both last up to one hour and only carry you through the steps. They are encrypted, so your browser can't read what they hold: your email address or the number you picked. We use no advertising or tracking cookies.
Cloudflare Web Analytics runs on public pages and the sign-in page, never inside your account.
Your rights
Wherever you live, you can see, download, correct or delete what we hold about you, and object to how we use it. In your account you can change your settings, download your data as a JSON file you can take elsewhere, or delete the account yourself.
If you live in the European Union, the United Kingdom or another place with a similar law, such as the GDPR, you can also ask us to restrict how we use your data, and complain to your local data protection authority.
For anything you can't do in your account, or about the waitlist, write to info@lotteryteller.com from the address you used. We reply within 30 days.
How long we keep it
We keep your account data until you delete your account. A number you delete from My Numbers stops showing there, but it stays in your account data, and in your download, until you delete the account.
Deleting the account removes your email, settings, followed games, numbers, matches and visits from our systems right away, along with any waitlist entry for the same email. The record that an account was deleted keeps only its internal id and the date, never your email or your numbers.
Actions you took as an operator, such as publishing a game or correcting a result, stay in our change records under your internal id after you delete your account.
Our sign-in and email providers keep their own logs, which can hold your email address and the times you signed in or were emailed. Deleting your account doesn't remove those entries, and each provider's own retention rules apply to them.
We keep a waitlist entry until we send the one email we promised when membership opens, and we delete it 30 days after we send it. You can ask us to delete it sooner at any time.
Who helps us, and where
Supabase runs our database and handles sign-in, in the United States. Resend delivers the emails we send: your sign-in codes and, once, the waitlist announcement. The site runs on Cloudflare's network. They are our service providers and handle your information only on our instructions.
Because we store your information in the United States, it is transferred there if you use LotteryTeller from another country, including the European Union. We rely on our providers' standard contractual clauses, or an equivalent safeguard, for these transfers.
Who is responsible
LotteryTeller.com is responsible for your information as the data controller. You can reach us at info@lotteryteller.com.
Age
LotteryTeller is for adults. Only people who are 21 or older, or older where local law requires, may join the waitlist or create an account.
Changes to this notice
If we change how we use your information, we will update this page and its date before the change takes effect.
