Information you provide directly

When you contact tc-lotto.com through a feedback or enquiry form, we collect the details you choose to submit, typically your name, email address, and the content of your message. You are never required to create an account, share payment credentials, or provide identity documents to access our editorial content. This Site does not accept deposits, process lottery entries, or handle financial transactions of any kind.

Information collected automatically

Like most websites, tc-lotto.com automatically logs certain technical data each time a page loads. This includes your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, pages visited, time spent on each page, and the referring URL, for example, a search-engine results page or a link from a third-party review site. This data is processed in aggregate to help our editorial team understand how visitors discover and navigate our content.

Cookies and tracking technologies

We use essential cookies to keep the Site functioning correctly, analytics cookies (such as those provided by Google Analytics) to measure traffic patterns, and, where applicable, advertising cookies placed by third-party networks. You can manage or disable non-essential cookies through your browser settings at any time; doing so will not prevent you from reading our guides and reviews.

Third-party operators and external sites

This Site links to TC Lotto, an independent operator that is not affiliated with tc-lotto.com. If you visit the operator's platform and register an account, make deposits via services such as PhonePe, GPay, or BHIM, or complete identity verification, any personal data you submit is processed solely under the operator's own privacy policy. We have no access to, and bear no responsibility for, data held by the operator or any other third-party site we link to.
