Sharing Your Information
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We may share your information only in the following circumstances:
- Service providers: Third-party companies that help us operate the platform (e.g. payment processors, email delivery services, hosting providers). These parties are contractually obligated to protect your data and may only use it to provide services to us.
- Legal requirements: Where required by Australian law, court order, or government authority.
- Business transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred to the new entity, subject to the same privacy protections.

Payment Processing
All payment transactions on SmartLotto are processed by PayPal and/or other authorised third-party payment processors. SmartLotto does not store, process, or have access to your full credit card or banking details.
By making a payment, you agree to the payment processor's own terms of service and privacy policy. We recommend reviewing PayPal's Privacy Policy at paypal.com/au/legalhub/privacy-full.
Data Security
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your personal information from unauthorised access, loss, misuse, disclosure, or alteration. These measures include:
- SSL/TLS encryption for all data transmitted between your browser and our platform
- Encrypted password storage (passwords are never stored in plain text)
- Restricted access to personal data — only authorised personnel can access it
- Regular security reviews and updates
While we take every reasonable precaution, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure. If you believe your account has been compromised, please contact us immediately at info@smartlotto.com.au.

We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you with our services. Specifically:
- Account data is retained for the duration of your account and for up to 2 years after account closure for legal and billing purposes
- Payment and billing records are retained for 7 years as required by Australian tax law
- Analytics and usage data may be retained in anonymised or aggregated form indefinitely
You may request deletion of your personal data at any time (see Section 9).
