Overseas Subscribers Agents Overall Privacy Statement
 
This is important to us also especially when you visit this site and leave your personal information.  This privacy statement tells you what information we gather, how we use it and how you can correct it and remove it.
 
Information Gathered From You and How it is Used
 
1.  UK National Lottery Entry Form and Scratch 'n Win Ticket Order Form
When you subscribe to UK National Lottery or order Scratch 'n Win Tickets, we require your name, address, telephone and fax numbers, email address and credit card information.   We use this information solely to process your subscription, to contact you if questions arise regarding your order and to send future correspondence.  Your personal information will remain confidential unless you specifically give us permission to allow third parties to send you information from time-to-time.

We share this information, and only the absolute necessary information, to third parties involved in the processing of your order.  For example, the financial institution that will verify your credit card payment and the shipping carrier that delivers your entry confirmation and all other future correspondence.

In addition to the information you provide, we automatically record your ip address when you place an order to help us detect fraudulent activity.  We may share this with the financial institution that issued the credit card user or with law enforcement authorities, if we determine the use of the credit card was fraudulent.
 
2.  Email Newsletters
You can choose to subscribe to our free monthly newsletter.  When subscribing, you're required to enter your email address and you'll also be asked if you want to receive email announcements of events, products or services in UK National Lottery by ticking a box.

Your email address will be used for this purpose alone.  Subscription to the newsletter is completely voluntary and, at any time, you can unsubscribe from this service by emailing us at

The details you disclose here will only be used for this purpose: to contact you when any of your friends join the
UK National Lottery, and to send you special announcements if you tick the box for this option.  Your friends will receive a one-time invitation to enter UK National Lottery and, if they do not respond, their details will be deleted from our database.

Sharing of Information and Unsolicited Communications

Security
This web site takes every precaution to protect your personal information.  When you submit sensitive information via the site, your information is protected both online and off-line.

When you submit sensitive information on our Entry Form (such as credit card number), that information is encrypted and is protected with the industry standard SSL encyption.  While on a secure page, such as our order form, the lock icon on the bottom of your web browser (Netscape or Internet Explorer) becomes locked which is normally unlocked or open when you're just surfing normal pages.

Offline, all your personal information, not just sensitive information mentioned above, is protected.  All our subscribers' personal information is restricted to our office.  Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job can access subscribers' information.  Furthermore, all employees are kept up-to-date with security and privacy practices.  They are regularly reminded of the importance of keeping subscribers' privacy and what they can do to preserve this information.  Finally, the servers that store all subscribers' information are kept in a secure environment and are protected by password known only by a limited number of persons.
 
Special Announcement
We send all UK National Lottery subscribers via mail and email special announcements on new products, services, special offers, site updates or upcoming events to keep them informed on what is happening in UK National Lottery.

Opt-Out Policy
All users are given the choice to "opt-out" of receiving email messages or other forms of communications other than those related to the service to which they've subscribed.  For example, our entry form has an "opt-out" box so users who want to subscribe to UK National Lottery, for instance, but don't want to receive marketing materials other than those related to their subscription, will be kept off our email lists.  All users will be given the option to receive other Lottery materials enabling them to enter other Lotteries handled by OSA.

In addition, all email messages feature an option for recipients to unsubscribe or remove their names from our database.  For example, users who no longer wish to receive our monthly newsletter may opt out by using the unsubscribe option found on the bottom page of each newsletter.  Alternately, users can email us at
