At WorldStakes, we value your trust. Protecting your privacy is a top priority, and this Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard personal information. By entering or using our services, you acknowledge and agree to the terms outlined below.
1. Information We Collect
When you participate in WorldStakes, we may collect personal information such as your name, email address, mailing address, and payment details for the sole purpose of administering entries, notifying Champions, and distributing prizes. We may also collect non-identifiable data, such as website usage statistics, to improve our services.
2. Use of Information
Information collected is used exclusively for sweepstakes administration, prize fulfillment, communication with participants, and verification of eligibility. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to any third party, under any circumstances.
3. Disclosure of Champions
WorldStakes respects the privacy of all participants. In no event will we publicly release, publish, or disclose the identity of any Champion without the prior written consent of the winning party. Where required by law, Champions may be asked to verify identity privately; however, disclosure to the public or media will never occur without explicit authorization.
4. Data Protection
We implement commercially reasonable security measures to protect your data from unauthorized access, alteration, or misuse. While no system can be guaranteed completely secure, we are committed to maintaining industry-standard practices for data protection.
5. International Participants
As a global sweepstakes, data submitted may be processed or stored in jurisdictions outside your home country. By entering, you consent to the transfer and storage of information in the United States or other secure locations where our systems operate.
6. Legal Requirements
We may disclose limited participant information only if required to comply with legal obligations, regulatory requirements, or valid court orders. Such disclosures will be narrowly tailored and, wherever possible, communicated to the affected party.
7. Retention and Deletion
WorldStakes retains participant data only as long as necessary to administer sweepstakes operations, comply with legal obligations, and maintain accurate records. Participants may request deletion of their data after the conclusion of a Season, subject to any applicable legal or compliance requirements.
8. Policy Updates
This Privacy Policy may be revised from time to time. Material updates will be reflected on our website with the date of the most recent revision displayed above. Continued participation constitutes acceptance of any changes.
By participating in WorldStakes, you affirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to this Privacy Policy.
