Our Privacy Policy

At Lottery Post Canada, we value the trust that our users place in us when they share their personal information with us. We understand the importance of protecting and respecting your data and take all necessary steps to ensure that it is handled securely.

What Personal Information May Be Collected?

When you create an account or use our platform, we may collect various types of personal information from you. This can include:

  • Account registration information such as username, email address, password, and date of birth
  • Device and browser information, including your device type, operating system, screen resolution, and language preference
  • Usage analytics data, which helps us understand how our users interact with the platform

We may also use cookies and tracking technologies to collect anonymous usage data and improve the user experience. These technologies can be used for various purposes such as:

  • Logging in: When you log into your Lottery Post Canada account, we store a session cookie that allows you to access your account without needing to re-enter your credentials.
  • Security: Our platform uses cookies and other tracking technologies to protect against security threats by detecting suspicious activity.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use both essential (strictly necessary) and non-essential (analytical/performance) cookies on our website. Essential cookies are used for functionalities like session management, login protection, and technical log storage. These cookies will only be set if strictly required for the performance of a service that has been explicitly requested by you.

Non-essential cookies help us to improve our services through analytics or targeted marketing purposes. We respect your decision regarding these non-essential cookies; however, please note that disabling them may affect certain features' functionality on our platform. For instance, our login security might be compromised if essential cookies are denied access.

Communication Preferences

If you choose to receive communications from us, we will honour your preferences with regards to:

  • Marketing opt-ins: You have the right to decline or adjust marketing notifications at any time.
  • Notification frequency: Depending on the notification settings selected during registration, users can be opted-in/out for various types of alerts.

Data Storage and Retention

Your data is stored securely on our servers. We follow strict policies regarding data storage and retention:

  • For account security purposes, we will retain user information even after an account has been deleted.
  • Technical logs are retained to assist in platform maintenance, development, or legal requirements as per local regulations.

Security and Account Protection

We employ robust measures to protect your personal and account-related information from unauthorized access. These measures include:

  • Encrypted connections: When transferring data between our servers and clients, all exchanges use secure protocols (HTTPS).
  • Access controls: User permissions are restricted according to their roles or organizational hierarchy within the company.
  • Authentication mechanisms: Our login system demands an original password stored securely with sufficient hashing power; these hashed versions of passwords can neither be read nor altered by unauthorized parties.

According to local data protection regulations, you have several rights regarding your personal data:

  1. Right to access: Request information about the processing purposes.
  2. Right to correct: Have any errors corrected or updated if it’s true and legitimate request is made.
  3. Right to erase (right to be forgotten): Have all collected data deleted in accordance with laws regulating specific situations like a personal privacy infringement.
