INTRODUCTION

HOW TO PLAY/GAME RULES

Please read the rules of all the services available on the Website as well as the Terms and Conditions BEFORE you place a wager or expend any monies. Please note that the reference to customer (“the Customer” or “Customers” in the plural) is any individual who has registered to open an account with the Operator.

RULES RELATING TO THE PURCHASE OF LOTTERY TICKETS

Please note these must be read in conjunction with the Terms and Conditions BEFORE YOU PLAY.

1. Lotto Express (a trading name of Ralseft Limited) will make reasonable endeavours to procure the Customer’s requested entries on the Customer’s behalf subject to these Terms and Conditions. Tickets are purchased on the Customer’s behalf at the face value shown on the tickets. In facilitating the Customer’s entry, Lotto Express is not responsible for the issuance of tickets or promoting the draw, which is the responsibility of the lottery promoter in the relevant jurisdiction. Lotto Express, through its network of agents in the jurisdiction where the Customer may wish to participate, will make reasonable endeavours to procure that the agent fulfils your purchase order. In return for Lotto Express funding the purchase and related service charges (from monies it recoups from the Customer), the agents will buy and securely store all purchased tickets (and/or keep a record of online entries) and account to Lotto Express for winnings, unless the agent is precluded from doing so (see Rule 8 below).

2. There are deadlines of entry into each lottery which the Customer needs to be careful to observe because the Operator cannot accept entries beyond those deadlines. Please check the time limits stated for each particular participation on the Website. Please also note you cannot cancel any order once received by the Operator if the relevant tickets have already been purchased on the Customer’s behalf. Depending on the Customer’s preferred route of entry, the processing and accepting of the Customer’s order can vary. Please seek advice from info@LottoExpress.com as to our projected processing times. The amount charged by Lotto Express, which is not directly attributable to the purchase price shown on the face of the ticket, represents a service charge. The service charge is therefore contained within the entry fee. This service charge is to cover all the costs of administering the Customer’s order, including purchasing the Customer’s tickets, holding those tickets in safekeeping, keeping computer records of the Customer’s numbers, notifying the Customer of the Customer’s prizes, and (in the case of smaller amounts) collecting those prizes on the Customer’s behalf. The tariff of charges can vary depending on the relevant lottery and the Operator will therefore post the charges on the Website which the Customer can access when ordering tickets for the relevant lottery. Any changes in those charges will be posted 14 days (two weeks) before they take effect and therefore the Customer should check for such changes during each purchase order.

3. Customers should note there are different variations of numbers and games that are offered in different lotteries and once having selected which lotteries would form part of the Customer’s order, the Customer should look at the information available via the various links on the Operator’s Website to provide more information about the lottery products and draws available. Please note that the Operator can only provide the information that the lottery promoters themselves provide and it can take no responsibility for accuracy of such information. Given that there are strict deadlines for entry on all lotteries (see above), the Operator also reserves the right not to process any Customer’s order unless the Operator is in possession of the correct sum of cleared funds for the relevant lottery ticket and related service charges.

4. Where the amount of the prize is substantial, the Customer may be required to collect the prize themselves, with the assistance of Lotto Express or its employees and agents. The Operator seeks to offer lottery products that are paid free of taxes, duties, or service costs but any applicable taxes or duties are the sole responsibility of the Customer and may be deducted prior to payment of any prize. Please note that the Customer may be subject to other taxes in other jurisdictions and the Customer should take advice in this regard. The Operator has no responsibility for determining the portions of winnings paid, which is instead at the discretion of the lottery promoter or pursuant to its regulatory obligations.

5. Lotto Express will use reasonable efforts to fulfil the Customer’s order as requested. However, the Customer should familiarize themselves with the limits on the Operator’s responsibility set out in 5.9, 13.3, and 13.5 of the Terms and Conditions in particular.

5.1 Lotto Express is not affiliated with, or sponsored by, any official government agency.

5.2 Lotto Express does not process entries for any lotto or lottery from Customers residing in the jurisdiction where the lottery takes place.

6. Every effort is made to ensure the accuracy of the information appearing on this Website; however, in the event of a discrepancy regarding any aspect of a lottery, including its draw specifications, odds, prize structure, and prize pay-outs, the lottery results published by the promoter on its website or any other authorised media utilised by the promoter and replicated on the website would be final and determinative. Purchase of your ticket orders in circumstances under which participation in the lotteries included on this Website are prohibited by law may be voided by the Operator.

7. The Customer is bound insofar as is relevant by the Terms and Conditions of lottery participation for whichever lottery tickets are purchased on the Customer’s behalf.

8. Lotto Express cannot guarantee the purchasing of lottery tickets or the collection of winnings in instances which, despite Lotto Express’s reasonable efforts, a lottery promoter has declined to pay or the Operator has been unable to recover the winnings. Lotto Express will endeavour to make every reasonable effort to collect winnings and expedite payment to the Customer.

9. The Operator has no obligation to pursue any third party for any lottery proceeds; but if and when the Operator elects to do so and recovery of the sums is made, the Customer agrees that the Operator is entitled to deduct the Operator’s reasonable costs and any sums already paid to the Customer. It is the Customer’s responsibility to provide the Operator with the Customer’s up-to-date contact details; any recovery may take a significant period of time and the Operator is only obliged to make reasonable efforts to contact the Customer about the collection of winnings.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

These Terms and Conditions govern the end-user Customers’ use of the lottery-purchase facility (“Lotto Express Service”) available at www.lottoexpress.com (the “Website”) provided by Ralseft Limited (the Operators and Agent) and the Customer’s relationship with the Operator. Customers should read these Terms and Conditions carefully as they affect their rights and liabilities under the law. If any potential Customer does not agree with these Terms and Conditions, they should not register for or use Lotto Express Service. If Customers have any questions about these Terms and Conditions, they should contact info@LottoExpress.com. Please note that the rules applying to certain games and lotteries and participation in them form part of these Terms and Conditions.

1. APPLICABILITY OF THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS

1.1 Lotto Express Service is provided to the Customer for their personal non-commercial use subject to these Terms and Conditions. By viewing, registering on the Website, and/or continuing to use Lotto Express Service, the Customer agrees to be bound by these Terms and Conditions. If there is any inconsistency between these Terms and Conditions and any document incorporated by reference, these Terms and Conditions will prevail.

2. AMENDMENTS TO THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS

2.1 The Operator reserves the right to amend these Terms and Conditions from time to time (including to rectify errors or mistakes discovered on Lotto Express Service). The Operator will make reasonable efforts to ensure that any significant changes to these Terms and Conditions are notified to Customers by an appropriate method (for example, via a prominent notice on the Website) and with at least 14 days (two weeks) of notice of the amended terms coming into effect. However, it remains the Customer’s responsibility to periodically check these Terms and Conditions to ensure that the Customer continues to agree with and abide by them. The Operator advises each Customer to review the Website regularly to ensure the Customer is up to date with any changes that are intended to occur. If the Customer does not wish to accept any new Terms and Conditions, the Customer should not continue to use Lotto Express Service and should close their registered online account with the Operator (the “Account”). If any Customer continues to use Lotto Express Service after the date when the change comes into effect, that Customer’s use of Lotto Express Service will be confirmation of that Customer’s agreement to be bound by any new Terms and Conditions.

2.2 Any lottery order placed (but not yet accepted) prior to the time of amendment and notification of any amended Terms and Conditions will be subject to the respective pre-existing version of the Terms and Conditions that applied at the time the lottery order was placed.

3. REGISTRATION AND USE OF THE CUSTOMER’S ACCOUNT

3.1 To register an Account to use Lotto Express Service, the Customer must be at least 18 years of age or the legal age required for playing the lottery in the Customer’s jurisdiction or the place where the lottery takes place, whichever is the greater. The Customer must ensure that the details provided by them on registration (and at any time then-after) are correct and complete and must inform the Operator immediately of any changes to their details by updating their Account so that the Operator can communicate with them effectively. The Operator will require personal details, including the Customer’s name and date of birth, and appropriate contact details such as the Customer’s residential address, email address, and telephone number. In some cases, the Operator may request Source of Wealth. The Operator reserves the right to request identification documents (e.g., passport or identity cards) for verification purposes. If the Customer produces incorrect, inconsistent, or seemingly inaccurate data, the Operator may refuse to open an Account or suspend an Account already opened. By registering their details with the Operator, the Customer consents to the use of such details in accordance with the Policy and warrants that:

(a) the Customer is at least 18 years of age or the legal age required for playing the lottery in the Customer’s jurisdiction or the place where the lottery takes place, whichever is the greater;

(b) the Customer has the mental capacity to take responsibility for their own actions and can enter into a legally binding agreement with the Operator;

(c) all data supplied will be valid, accurate, and complete in all material respects and the Customer will immediately advise the Operator in writing of any change of details;

(d) the Customer understands the risk associated with participating in any lottery and accepts that they are fully responsible for any loss(es) they incur as a result of placing a lottery order; and

(e) the Customer will not abuse in any way any Lotto Express Service, bonus offer, or other promotion offered by the Operator.

3.2 Please note that a Customer can only open and maintain one Account with the Operator. If the Operator discovers that any Customer has opened more than one Account or is attempting to disguise their use of another Customer’s Account, the Operator is entitled to suspend and/or close any and all such Accounts or merge them all into one. Customers should therefore be wary if any attempted use of the Customer’s Account is made by a third party, even if that third party is known by the Customer. Also see paragraphs 3.6 and 3.8 below.

3.3 A Customer wishing to place a lottery order on Lotto Express Service should note that there may be specific laws in their country, place of residence, or the place where the Customer accesses Lotto Express Service that prohibit Lottery games . The Customer warrants to the Operator that they will not access Lotto Express Service from within a jurisdiction that prohibits such lottery participation. The Operator will not market promote, or knowingly offer games of chance to “Excluded Lists” means any person, citizen of or resident in a country currently listed by the UK’S Financial Action Task Force (FATF) or Cyprus’s ‘Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission’ ( CySEC ) as posing a risk to the international financial system; any person listed on the financial sanctions list of the UK’S HMRC and the Tax Department of the Ministry Of Finance Republic of Cyprus; and any person, citizen of or resident in the United States of America. Further, the Customer warrants to the Operator that they will not access (or register for) Lotto Express Service at any time if they are a citizen of a nation-state that prohibits its citizens from participating in such lotteries. The Operator reserves the right, for whatever reason and at any time, to close any Account or suspend access to the Website if the Customer is found to be in breach of this term. The Operator also reserves the right to block transactions that the Operator, at its sole discretion, suspects is sourced from any territory where lottery participation is illegal.

3.4 It is the Customer’s responsibility to ensure compliance with their applicable local or national laws before registering for an Account and/or before placing lottery orders on Lotto Express Service. The Customer is encouraged to seek legal advice before registering and/or placing any lottery orders or depositing any money to verify that their proposed dealings on Lotto Express Service are not contrary in any way to such laws. The Operator does not accept any responsibility for a Customer’s breach of any applicable local or national laws. Where the Customer is able to successfully open an Account, this cannot be construed as any form of representation or confirmation as to legality.

3.5 The Operator reserves the right to remove or add jurisdictions to its list of blocked territories (including those territories where lottery purchases are made as well as the territory from which they are ordered). The Operator reserves the right to close Accounts in circumstances under which a jurisdiction not previously on this list is subsequently included or under which an account in a blocked territory is opened in error. All sums standing to the credit of the Customer’s account will be returned if feasible and transactions voided in circumstances under which a purchase order has not been processed. In circumstances under which an Account is closed due to concerns relating to participation in a blocked territory after an order has been processed but before a draw takes place, insofar as the order includes a winning ticket in accordance with these Terms and Conditions, then the Operator will refer the matter to a third party Arbitration service in the Republic of Cyprus in determining how to appropriately proceed, PROVIDED THAT the Customer has not attempted to mislead the Operator as to the territory from where they are accessing services provided by the Operator.

3.6 When the Customer registers their Account on the Website, they will be asked to create a login with their email and a password (the latter will be encrypted and not accessible to the Operator). In order to prevent fraud, at all times the Customer must keep this password confidential and not disclose it or share it with anyone. If the Customer knows or suspects that someone else knows their password or that any other personal information has been stolen or otherwise accessed without their authority, they should notify the Operator immediately by contacting info@LottoExpress.com.

3.7 If the Operator has reason to believe that there is likely to be a breach of security or misuse of Lotto Express Service, it may require the Customer to change their password. The Operator also reserves the right to close any Account or suspend access to the Website if, in the reasonable opinion of the Operator, the Customer’s Account information has been compromised.

3.8 The Customer will not allow any other person or third party (including, without limitation, any minor) to use their Account or accept any prize on their behalf. The Customer is solely responsible for all use of Lotto Express Service through their login and password. Unless caused by the Operator’s negligence, any unauthorised use of the login and password will be the Customer’s sole responsibility and deemed the Customer’s use. The Customer will therefore be liable for any such unauthorised use and will not be refunded any resulting expenditure on Lotto Express Service.

3.9 If an Account is inactive or suspended for six months or longer, the Operator reserves the right to levy an administration charge of £5 (the “Administration Charge”) per month for maintenance of the Account and set-off the Administration Charge against any funds in the Customer’s Account (the “Customer Funds”). The Administration Charge will be deducted from the Account within 24 hours from when the Account is deemed to be inactive and on the first day of every subsequent calendar month then-after. The Administration Charge shall be deducted until either the Customer Funds is reduced to zero or until the Account is reactivated by the Customer. If the Account balance is zero for a consecutive period of six months or the Account remains inactive for 24 months or longer, the Operator reserves the right to cancel the Account.

3.10 The Operator may, at its absolute discretion, immediately suspend or terminate the Customer’s Account for reasons including, but not limited to, if:

(a) the Customer breaches any of their obligations under these Terms and Conditions;

(b) the Operator suspects that the Customer is in breach of its obligations under these Terms and Conditions;

(c) the Operator suspects that the Customer is acting other than on their own behalf, with others, or is engaging in illegal or fraudulent activity;

(d) the Operator suspects that the Customer is acting in a manner that is detrimental to the conduct of the Operator’s business; or

(e) the Operator is required to do so by law.

Depending on the reason for such suspension or termination, the balance of the Customer’s Account may need to be held for a period of time whilst a full review of the facts is conducted. During this period, no activity shall be permitted including deposits, withdrawals, and placing lottery orders, and no winnings will be paid. The Operator will endeavour to return monies as soon as possible subject to the time needed for a full review of the circumstances leading to suspension or termination and subject to there being no request by any regulatory body or governmental agency to either not pay such sums or to forfeit them.

3.11 The expiry or termination of a Customer’s Account for any reason will not affect either the rights, obligations, and/or liabilities of either the Customer or the Operator accrued before the date of termination or expiry, or any rights, obligations, and/or liabilities of either the Customer or the operator expressed to continue in force after and despite expiry or termination.

3.12 The Operator reserves the right not to open an Account for any Customer without having to provide any reason whatsoever. The Operator further reserves the right to refuse/reject any lottery order and suspend and/or terminate the Account of any Customer (without prior notification) who is suspected of cheating, hacking, attacking, manipulating, or damaging the Operator’s normal gaming operations (including Lotto Express Service).

3.13 The use of artificial intelligence or “bots” on or in connection with Lotto Express Service is strictly forbidden. Likewise, any application that uses any or all of the data contained on Lotto Express Service for purposes (including but not limited to commercial purposes, via methods including but not limited to screen scraping) other than participating in Lotto Express Service, is prohibited. The Operator will take measures to prevent and detect the use of programs that are designed to enable artificial intelligence (i.e., non-humans) to utilise or benefit from the data contained on the Website. Any attempted or actual use of artificial intelligence by the Customer will prompt the suspension or termination of their Account in accordance with clauses 3.10 and 3.12.

3.14 Providing the Customer’s Account does not show a balance due to the Operator, the Customer can cancel their Account at any time by informing the Operator in writing at info@LottoExpress.com. If the Customer does so, they must immediately stop using Lotto Express Service. The Operator will refund any balance owed to the Customer as soon as is reasonably practicable.

3.15 The suspension or termination of the Customer’s Account will not affect either party’s statutory rights or liabilities.

Deposits and withdrawals can be actioned by the Customer through the Account menu on the Website.

5.2 The Customer accepts and authorises the Operator to instruct its payment-management company (Ralseft Limited) to handle the processing of Account deposits and withdrawals; thus the Customer allows the Operator to give such instructions on the Customer’s behalf. The Operator reserves the right to withhold payment of any funds if suspicion or evidence of manipulation of Lotto Express Service arises or in instances of fraud, whether actual, attempted, or suspected. The Operator may take action against the Customer or any other party who manipulates, or tries to manipulate, Lotto Express Service or any part of it or when the Operator suspects that the Customer has participated in any fraud or attempted fraud.

5.3 To maintain a high level of security to protect the Customer’s funds, the Operator will periodically perform random security checks. The Customer hereby accepts that the Operator maintains the right to demand additional documentation in order to verify the Customer’s Account details in the event of such a security check.

5.4 The Customer has the responsibility for checking their available Customer Funds before or after each transaction order. If the Customer suspects any errors, they must report it immediately to the Operator before placing another lottery order. Failure to do so will result in the Customer waiving their rights in connection with correcting any prior errors.

5.5 The Customer must inform the Operator as soon as is reasonably possible if they believe that their Account information is being misused in any way by a third party so that the Operator may suspend their Account. The Operator will not be held responsible for any reasonable delay in executing such a suspension.

However, the Customer is limited to making only one request for withdrawal of funds within any one 24-hour period.

The Operator may at its sole discretion waive such costs but any such waiver shall not be deemed as a necessary guarantee of a waiver of future costs.

5.9 While the Operator seeks to offer lottery products for which taxes, fees and service costs do not apply, for instances in which this is not possible, subject to any limitations imposed by the Operator’s payment-management company and agents, payment of any applicable taxes and fees in connection with any lottery prize received are the Customer’s sole responsibility; but when taxes on lottery prizes are deducted at source (i.e., when the prize is awarded), such sums will be deducted and the net proceeds accounted for. There is no guarantee that any Customer will not be required to account for additional personal taxes in any jurisdiction where they are taxed. Prizes cannot be transferred, substituted, or redeemed for any other prize.

5.10 There is no guarantee that, despite the Operator’s commitment to professional service, the Customer’s lottery order will be processed or that other impediments will not arise in recovery on any winning ticket. Please refer to paragraph 8 of the How To Play/Game Rules section above, which sets out the Customer’s entitlement in these circumstances.

6.1 The Online Gambling Regulations under Financial Action Task Force (FATF), Caribbean Financial Action Task Force (CFATF), United Nations Security Council (UNSC) the anti-money laundering and counter financing of terrorism as contained in Directive (EU) 2015/849 (the 5th anti-money laundering Directive). This is translated into Cypriot law the Prevention and Suppression of Money Laundering Activities Laws of 2007 to 2019 (‘the AML/CFT Law’) as implemented by CySEC’s Directive for the Prevention and Suppression of Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing specifies the requirements for obliged entities (the ‘Directive’). As part of registration, purchase, pay out of winnings and/or ongoing monitoring of your account, we may ask you to provide us with certain documents required for our “Know Your Customer” process (“KYC Documents”), such as copies of your Passport/Identity Card, proof of payment details, evidence of source of income and/or source of wealth, Bank Statement, Utility Bill, etc. and may ask you to provide updated KYC Documents in case such expire. We may ask you to provide us with certified/notarized copies of your KYC Documents in case these are required in order for us to be able to comply with statutory and/or regulatory requirements, including but not limited to Anti Money Laundering requirements. It should be noted that Players have thirty (30) days in order to send us their KYC Documents, as set out in 6.2 above. If a Player fails to comply with our requirement to provide KYC Documents during a consecutive period of thirty (30) days, we may terminate the relationship with such Player. As part of registration and the ongoing monitoring of your account, we may supply your information details to authorised credit reference agencies to confirm your identity and payment card details. You agree that we may process such information in connection with your registration.

6.2 Upon the compliance of the above requirements by the Customer (the ” KYC Compliance“), then the KYC Compliance shall remain in effect for so long as the documents submitted shall not be invalidated for any reason whatsoever and the Customer shall be at liberty to make a request for withdrawals of Gaming Funds at any time. The Operator is however entitled to request updated information or additional data at any time, prior to processing any withdrawal request, and it is the Customer’s responsibility to ensure that they notify the Operator of any changes to personal data such as change of address or a new passport.

6.3 Please note that the Operator cannot provide the Customer with any element of Lotto Express Service whilst the request for this information is in whole or in part outstanding, nor will the Customer receive any withdrawal sums requested. The Operator reserves the right to suspend or close the Account should a customer not provide satisfactory information in relation to KYC compliance including source of wealth and source of funds documentation. Accounts may also be suspended if the Operator believes that investigation is required due to suspicious activity (e.g. large or unusual transactions, changes in payment method etc.)

6.4 The Operator will only credit funds into the Account of the Customer of winnings up to the value of €3,000. Please see 5.1. Further, subject to any banking, Card Scheme Rules, or other limits imposed by any relevant payment processor, the Operator will only pay out Gaming Funds via the method that the funds were deposited into the Account. Any winnings above €3,000 with be paid by bank transfer less any relevant banking fees deducted for the receipt or pay out of winnings and any Foreign Exchange costs as maybe levied. It is not the responsibility of Ralseft Limited to ensure client bank accounts can receive transfers and is exclusively the responsibility of the client to ensure their nominated bank processes any winnings deposits.

6.5 The Operator reserves the right, at its reasonable discretion, to suspend payment out of the funds, pending a full investigation (including providing details to the relevant law-enforcement agency when appropriate), when it suspects that funds have been deposited, and are attempting to be withdrawn, by a Customer for the purposes of money laundering. An example of such an occurrence includes a Customer depositing a substantial sum of funds and then attempting to withdraw these Gaming Funds having only placed minimal lottery orders on Lotto Express Service. Full repayment of the funds will only be made to the Customer when the investigation reveals no evidence of money laundering; but if it does, the sums may have to be forfeited to the authorities. Customers should be aware that such investigations can take a long period of time, during which the Operator may not be permitted to discuss the matter in any detail.

7. ALL LOTTERY ORDERS (Single Line, Syndicate, and Automatic Renewal Subscription)

7.1 In placing a lottery order, the Customer will determine the numbers requested and the amount of their own order, subject to any limits or terms imposed by the lottery promoter and any notified costs of lottery-handling fees.

7.2 In the event that a Customer gives instructions that the Operator considers unclear, the Operator shall be entitled to treat the purchase order as void. In such circumstances, the decisions of the Operator shall be final and binding on the Customer.

7.3 If a lottery order is not properly completed or if details of it are missing, the Operator may, at its discretion, deem such an order to be void.

7.4 A Customer may send multiple copies of the same lottery purchase, in which case all such purchase requests will be treated as separate orders.

7.6 To place a lottery order, there must be available and cleared Customer Funds equal to or exceeding the amount of the lottery order. If the Customer’s Funds do not cover the aggregate orders placed at any one time, the Operator will only accept those orders that can be covered but the Operator may determine which are accepted and which are refused.

7.7 When a manifest error or systems failure results in incorrect or erroneous orders, any order placed will be void. If such error is noticed before any lottery draw, the Operator will immediately return the order placed to the Customer’s Account.

7.8 When settlement of winnings has taken place erroneously, the settlement will be invalid and reversed. If the Customer has insufficient Gaming Funds to effect such a reversal, they will be required to return the erroneously credited funds in accordance with paragraph 12.

7.9 The Operator may, at any time, in its absolute discretion and without giving any reason or advance notice, refuse to accept any lottery order and/or suspend or close any Customer’s Account; albeit it will, when reasonably possible, not allow this to occur without advance warning and/or a clear explanation to the Customer.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a lottery order is placed without sufficient time to buy a ticket before the commencement of the lottery draw, or because of a system failure or otherwise, the order will be invalid. Disputes over the times when instructions are given will be finally settled by reference to the Operator’s transaction log.

8.5 The Customer will be responsible for ensuring that their lottery orders are correctly submitted within the appropriate timeframe. Lottery orders submitted within the relevant time limits may not be revoked or changed by the Customer except as expressly provided in these Terms and Conditions.

The Customer acknowledges that the frequency of Lottery Draws each week depends on the specific Lottery that you are choosing to subscribe to (for instance, some Lotteries have 1, 2 or 3 draws a week. The site will confirm the entry and will provide the Customer with complete information on the lottery and draw dates that the Customer is participating in)

(b) The Customer may opt to participate in an unlimited amount of subscriptions simultaneously.

8.9 Subscription Identification

23. RESPONSIBLE LOTTERY GAMING POLICY- Self Exclusion and ability to set play limits.

23.1 The Operator maintains a strong commitment to provide the Customer with a responsible Lottery play environment. Although Lottery play should be enjoyed as a recreational activity, it can nevertheless also cause a problem for some Customers. The Operator aims to prevent compulsive usage and underage access to its games while simultaneously providing a friendly and entertaining Lottery play experience for its Customers. As a responsible operator, the well-being of the Operator’s Customers is of utmost importance.

23.2 The Customer should note the following advice to make sure that their Lottery play remains fun and under control:

(a) the Customer should not chase losses; (b) the Customer must read, understand and play in accordance with the Game Rules; (c) Lottery play is a form of entertainment and should not be regarded as a way of paying debts or making money; (d) the Customer should not play the lotteries more than they can afford to lose; and (e) the Customer should monitor the amount of money and time they have spent playing.

23.3 The Operator has a self-exclusion policy for Customers who might become concerned that they are not in control of their gaming habits. The Customer may decide to self-exclude from access to Lotto Express Service for a period of six months, one, two or five years or permanently. During the self-exclusion period, the request for temporary blocked access will be enforced and irrevocable. The Customer may call our customer-support team to reactivate their account once the self-exclusion period has ended. In the instance of problem gamblers, accounts will be suspended immediately and the Customer contacted by the customer-support team. Following this activity, any accounts subject to the Customer’s self-exclusion request will be reactivated unless the Customer contacts us again within this period and requests their self-exclusion to remain in place for a further five-year period. If, in the Operator’s sole judgement, it perceives that the Customer’s gaming activity is indicative of problematic behaviour, the Operator reserves the right to automatically suspend the Customer’s account or to bar the Customer from service for a period of time at the Operator’s discretion. If the Operator closes the Customer’s account, any legitimate balance held by the Customer will be returned within 28 days. The Customer acknowledges and agrees that, should they choose to self-exclude from any of the Operator’s products or services, the Customer shall not be permitted to open or use a new account with any other Website operated by the Operator during the selected self-exclusion period, until such self-exclusion has been lifted and the original account reopened. In the event the Customer breaches the foregoing policy, the Operator shall be entitled to block any new account the Customer opens with another site, forfeit any funds the Customer may deposit (or have previously deposited) therein and shall not be liable to refund to the Customer any funds they may have wagered or won through their account. The Customer can request a self-exclusion period by talking to our customer-service team. The operator will activate a Customer’s request to self-exclude as soon as possible after receipt of the Customer’s completed request and confirm this activation to the Customer by email. Any remaining balances will be returned to the Customer by a method determined by the Operator (conditional upon complete account verification where appropriate). The Operator reserves the right to contact the Customer should any further information be required. The Operator accepts no responsibility or liability if the Customer fails to provide information or provides inaccurate or incomplete information which prevents us, in our sole determination, from activating the Customer’s self-exclusion. The Operator may refuse to apply the Customer’s self-exclusion to any related account if there is any doubt, at our sole discretion, as to whether the account belongs to the Customer. During the Customer’s period of self-exclusion, they have an equal undertaking not to seek to circumvent the self-exclusion agreement by entering or continuing (or asking a third party on the Customer’ behalf) to participate in lottery services via our online operations.

During the Customer’s self-exclusion period, in the event (or in circumstances that are beyond the Operator’s reasonable control) of the following occurring, Lotto Express shall not be held liable for the Customer inadvertently receiving marketing material and their continued gaming as a result and/or circumventing their self-exclusion agreement by (including but not limited to): (i) continuing to play lotteries; (ii) by opening and operating new accounts; and/or (iii) automated checks and/or IT or software programmes failing to recognize any attempt by Customer to circumvent their self-exclusion. As part of these latter points, we also recommend that the Customer self-exclude from other Operators at their earliest opportunity. During the self-exclusion period, Lotto Express will take all reasonable measures, including advising any affiliated party of the Customer’s decision to self-exclude, to ensure the Customer does not receive any promotional material during this time.

23.4 If our Customers suspect that they have a gaming or gambling problem or have concerns regarding their gaming, the Operator recommends that they contact our Customer Service Department at info@LottoExpress.com, to receive information on where to get help.

23.5 Please note that even when the Customer has elected not to self-exclude, the Operator may close an account in circumstances it deems reasonable, at the Operator’s sole discretion.

23.6 The Customer may also put limits on their account by contacting our customer-support team at info@LottoExpress.com in order to set a maximum on total ticket purchases in a single order. The Customer shall not be permitted to increase this maximum unless the Customer has given 7 days’ notice
