Privacy Notice

Background

The Rainbow Lottery (the Service) is provided by Rainbow Central CIC ('we', 'us', or 'our') with the assistance of our external lottery manager, Gatherwell Limited (Gatherwell). We are licensed to operate and promote the Service by the London Borough of Wandsworth under registration number 1028. Gatherwell is licensed to manage lotteries on behalf of licensed operators by the UK Gambling Commission under registration number 36893.

We are the controller of personal data collected through our operation of the Service, which means that we determine the purposes and means of the processing of personal data. Gatherwell is our processor, which means that Gatherwell is responsible for processing personal data on our behalf.

When we collect and use personal data about you, we are subject to the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), the Data Protection Act 2018 (DPA 2018), together with any and all other laws relating to the handling of personal data (collectively, the Data Protection Laws).

This Privacy Notice provides an overview of how we collect, store, and use your personal data. This Privacy Notice also details how you can access and update your personal data or make a complaint if you decide to use our Service.

We are committed to the protection of personal data of individuals and to maintaining the highest possible standards of privacy. We seek to implement practices, procedures, and systems that comply with Data Protection Laws and the requirements therein.

If you choose to use our Service, then you agree to the collection and use of information in relation with this Privacy Notice. The personal data that we collect is used for providing and improving the Service. We will not use or share your information with any third parties except as described in this Privacy Notice.

Our Service is only available to individuals aged 18 and over, therefore, we do not expect to collect personal data of anyone under that minimum age.

What personal data do we collect and hold?

We may collect, use, store and transfer different kinds of personal data about you, which we have grouped together as follows:

• Contact Data includes billing address, delivery address, email address and telephone number(s).
• Financial Data includes bank account or payment card details, necessary and utilised to process purchases made through our Service. We do not store payment card details, however they do pass through our Website to reach a secure payment gateway.

Aggregated Data could be derived from your personal data but is not considered personal data in law as this data will not directly or indirectly reveal your identity. For example, we and Gatherwell may aggregate your Usage Data to calculate the percentage of users accessing a specific Website feature. However, if we or Gatherwell combine or connect Aggregated Data with your personal data so that it can directly or indirectly identify you, we treat the combined data as personal data which will be used in accordance with this Privacy Notice.

We do not collect any Special Categories of personal data about you (this includes details about your race or ethnicity, religious or philosophical beliefs, sex life, sexual orientation, political opinions, trade union membership, information about your health, and genetic and biometric data). Nor do we collect any information about criminal convictions and offences.

To protect against fraudulent activities, we may require customers to identify themselves when purchasing lottery tickets or when claiming prizes. Where deemed necessary at our discretion, Gatherwell will verify your identity on our behalf.

If you fail to provide personal data

Where we need to collect personal data by law, or under the terms of a contract we have with you, and you fail to provide that data when requested, we may not be able to perform the contract we have or are trying to enter into with you (for example, to provide you with the Service). In this case, we may have to cancel the Service you have with us, but we will notify you if this is the case at the time.

Please note that we may process your personal data without your knowledge or consent, in compliance with the above rules, where this is required or permitted by law.

International transfers

We may transfer your personal data outside of the UK, but we will ensure your personal data is protected by requiring all third parties located outside of the UK to maintain appropriate safeguards and adhere to the same data protection obligations as us in the handling and processing of personal data.

Whenever we transfer your personal data for processing outside of the UK, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:

• We will only transfer your personal data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data;
• Where an affiliated company of Gatherwell or a third party service provider is located in a country that is not subject to an adequacy decision, we (or Gatherwell on our behalf) use specific contracts that ensure your personal data is subject to the same protections that exist in the UK.

Please contact us if you want further information on the specific mechanism used by us when transferring your personal data out of the UK to a specific third party.

Personal data security

We use a range of security mechanisms and procedures to protect the personal data we hold. We make all reasonable efforts to ensure your personal data is stored securely both in electronic and physical forms and these comply with Data Protection Laws. However, there may be risks associated when transferring your personal data to us from other internet facilities or by email.

We will take all reasonable steps to ensure that any third party organisations we deal with are bound by confidentiality and privacy obligations in relation to the protection of your personal data. In addition, we limit access to your personal data to employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a business need to know. They will only process your personal data on our instructions and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.

Data retention

We will only retain your personal data for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or reporting requirements. We may retain your personal data for a longer period in the event of a complaint or if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation in respect to our relationship with you.

Personal data that is no longer required will be destroyed in accordance with Data Protection Laws.

In some circumstances you can ask us to delete your data: see the section titled 'Access to personal data' below for further information.

In some circumstances we will anonymise your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes, in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.
