DATA HANDLING PRACTICES

Six Ways We Protect Your Account Data

Security is not a feature we added later — it is built into every layer of how we process your data, from the moment you enter a PhonePe PIN to the moment…

End-to-End Encryption

Every data packet between your device and our servers travels over TLS 1.3. Your account email, mobile number and payment reference tokens are encrypted at rest using AES-256. No plaintext credentials are ever written to our database.

Cookie Policy

We use strictly necessary cookies to keep your session alive, and optional analytics cookies to understand how pages perform. You can withdraw consent for optional cookies at any time from the cookie banner or your browser settings without losing account access.

Data Retention Schedule

Active account data is kept for as long as your account remains open. Once you request closure, personal identifiers are deleted within 30 days unless a regulatory hold applies. Transaction logs required by financial regulations are retained for the legally mandated period only.

Third-Party Sharing Rules

We share data with payment processors like Paytm and PhonePe solely to complete your transaction. We share nothing with advertisers. Any processor we work with is bound by a data-processing agreement that mirrors the protections in this policy.

Your Right to Access & Correct

You can request a machine-readable export of all data we hold about you. If any detail is wrong — a misspelled name or an outdated mobile number — you can correct it from Settings or by contacting us, and the correction propagates across all systems within 48 hours.

Incident Response

In the unlikely event of a data breach affecting your account, we will notify you within 72 hours of confirming the incident, outline the data involved, and describe the steps we have already taken to contain and remediate the situation.

Your Privacy Policy Questions, Answered

The questions below cover the most common concerns we receive about how lotteries handles personal data, cookies, payment information and account deletion. If your question is not here, the live chat Privacy & Data queue connects you to a trained agent within minutes.

We collect your name, mobile number, email address and the device identifiers your browser provides. When you deposit via UPI or Paytm, we also store the payment reference token — not your full bank account details or PIN.

UPI and PhonePe transactions pass through a tokenised gateway. We receive a reference ID confirming the payment cleared; we never see or store your VPA credentials, bank password or PIN. That data stays with your payment provider.

Yes. Log in, go to Settings › Privacy, and select Export My Data. A machine-readable file covering your account details, transaction history and session logs will be emailed to your registered address within 48 hours.

Submit a deletion request from Settings › Privacy or email [email protected] with your registered mobile number. We process requests within 30 days. Transaction records subject to a regulatory hold are anonymised rather than deleted during that hold period.

We do not sell or share your data with advertisers. Data is shared with payment processors — Paytm, PhonePe, UPI gateway providers — only to complete your transactions. Each processor signs a data-processing agreement aligned with this policy.

We use strictly necessary cookies for session management and optional analytics cookies to measure page performance. You can turn off optional cookies from the cookie banner at any time. Disabling them does not affect your ability to log in or make deposits.

We notify affected account holders within 72 hours of confirming a breach. Our notification details what data was involved, what steps we have taken to contain the incident, and what — if anything — you should do to protect your account.
