When registering for a Georgia Lottery account, we may ask for the following information: name, email address, password, date of birth (for age verification), and other details as required to provide a safe and enjoyable experience. We also collect device and browser data to understand how our platform is used.

We gather technical data about your device, such as operating system version, screen resolution, and language preferences. This helps us ensure compatibility with various devices and optimize the overall user experience.
Usage Analytics and Behavioural Data
Georgia Lottery uses analytics tools to understand how users interact with our platform, including pages visited, searches performed, game played, and outcomes of bets placed (in a simulated or non-real money environment). We anonymize this data whenever possible for aggregated insights. These statistics help us improve the platform's performance, relevance, and user engagement.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Our site employs cookies to enhance functionality and personalize content based on your preferences. Cookies are small text files stored by your browser on its own machine. They do not contain personally identifiable information but may be associated with anonymous identifiers for marketing or optimization purposes. You can configure cookie settings in most browsers' privacy options.

Data Storage and Retention
We store user data securely on servers managed by reputable third-party service providers under agreements that ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations regarding privacy, security, and confidentiality. Data retention policies are subject to periodic review for optimal efficiency and effectiveness in ensuring platform integrity.
Security and Account Protection
Georgia Lottery takes all necessary measures to safeguard your account information against unauthorized access or misuse. Passwords are encrypted using secure hashing algorithms (with one-way encryption), and multi-factor authentication is supported for added security where feasible given the underlying infrastructure limitations of certain systems within our architecture. These security practices help prevent illegal activities such as hacking attempts, theft of personal data or monetary fraud.
User Rights Regarding Personal Data
Under applicable privacy regulations, you have several rights to control your data:
Age Restrictions and Minor Protection
To comply with regulations protecting minors, we strictly limit access to users over the age of consent within each applicable jurisdiction (which typically ranges from 18 to 21).
We process user information under legitimate interests as outlined above. For users who reside in an area subject to regional legislation such as GDPR or CCPA (as provided by respective states), Georgia Lottery will ensure data handling is also governed by these regulations when applicable.
Platform Monitoring for Security and Fraud Prevention
Our platform employs various technical logs and operational diagnostics for purposes related to security, fraud prevention, performance improvement, troubleshooting and user support.
