When we send you marketing information via email, every message we send will include a link if you wish to request that we do not contact you this way in the future. Our e-marketing provider Mail Chimp is a participant in the Privacy Shield Framework which puts in place appropriate safeguards to protect your data, or otherwise ensure that we can transfer your data in a way that complies with data protection law.

7. Digital Media
We may participate in various digital media ‘Custom Audience’ programmes, which enables us to display adverts to our existing supporters when they visit Facebook or other media sites. To do this we provide your email address, mobile number and address to enable identification of a registered account with them. Our advert may then appear when you access these sites in future.
Your data is sent in an encrypted format which is deleted by the organisation if it does not match with an account. We only receive data from these sites on the number of people within a specific ‘Custom Audience’ and are therefore unable to identify individuals within that audience.
For further information specific to Facebook please see Facebook Help: About Custom Audiences https://www.facebook.com/business/help/744354708981227 and the Facebook Data Policy https://www.facebook.com/policy.php
8. Automated decision making and profiling
To help us develop the lottery service, and offer our supporters the best experience possible, we may occasionally undertake profiling and automated decision-making activities, to identify key individuals who might be interested in specific services.
Before we do this, we will:
- Undertake a Data Protection Impact Assessment to identify and address any potential risks
- Via our website we will tell our supporters about any profiling or automated decision making carried out, what information is used to create the profiles and where it came from
- Ensure any data is anonymised before inclusion in any profiling activity
If you would prefer that your data is not used in this way, please contact us – see the end of this policy for contact details.
