This Privacy Notice explains how we collect and use your personal information when you take part in the School Lotto Fundraiser.
The School Lotto Fundraiser is a fundraising service that helps your chosen school raise money for school resources, activities, wellbeing projects and school improvements.
By signing up to play, you agree that we may use your information to manage your entries, collect payments, organise the draw, contact winners, issue prizes, send school lotto updates and provide support.
The School Lotto Fundraiser is promoted by the school, or the relevant school fundraising body, under its local council lottery registration.
The online platform and service are provided by:
For player data collected through the platform, Skoolfunder acts as the data controller for the purposes of operating the online platform, processing entries and payments, supporting the draw process, arranging prize fulfilment, sending service communications and providing support. The school/promoter authorises Skoolfunder to process the information needed to provide these services for the School Lotto Fundraiser.
We may collect:
We do not store full card payment details. Payments are processed securely by our payment provider.
We use your information to:
Because this is a school fundraising service, you will receive service-related updates about the School Lotto Fundraiser. You may receive these from the Promoter and or the Provider.
These may include:
These updates are part of the service and are not optional marketing.
Any separate promotional marketing from the Provider will only be sent where we are allowed to do so.
The weekly £20 Lucky Dip prize and other similar prizes are fulfilled as a digital prepaid card by email through CleverCards or another nominated prize fulfilment partner.
If you win a Lucky Dip prize, we may share the information needed to issue your prepaid card, such as your name and email address, with CleverCards or the relevant fulfilment provider.
They will only receive the information needed to fulfil the prize.
We may share limited information with the school or school fundraising body where needed to operate and promote the School Lotto Fundraiser.
This may include:
We will not share unnecessary personal information, payment card details or full payment information.
Supporter payments for the School Lotto Fundraiser are processed through Stripe, our payment processor. When you subscribe or pay, the information you enter to make the payment (such as your name, email, billing details and card information) is collected and processed by Stripe in accordance with Stripe's own privacy and payment terms.
The school/promoter has its own connected Stripe account. The school's funds are allocated directly to that connected Stripe account at the point each supporter payment is processed. Skoolfunder does not hold the school's funds separately.
We do not store your full card details. We receive limited payment information from Stripe (such as confirmation that a payment succeeded or failed, and a reference to the transaction) so we can manage your subscription, entries and account.
We keep your information only for as long as needed to operate the School Lotto Fundraiser, manage your subscription, deal with prizes, handle support issues and meet legal, accounting and lottery record-keeping requirements.
When your information is no longer needed, it will be deleted or anonymised.
You have rights over your personal information.
You may ask us to:
Some information may need to be kept for legal, accounting, lottery or fraud-prevention reasons.
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to keep your information safe.
Access to player information is limited to people who need it to run, support or manage the School Lotto Fundraiser.

For school-specific questions, you may also contact the school or school fundraising body shown on the relevant School Lotto Fundraiser page.

We may update this Privacy Notice from time to time.
