  • “Quick login” data, such as an extra PIN code and a token in the context of FaceID use (optional).

  1. Use of Bluetooth Technology  

 

The use of OPAP Store app for betting purposes is only allowed within OPAP Stores, due to legislation restrictions. In order for your participation to be lawful, we shall each time confirm that you are within an OPAP store. This is feasible by combining advanced Bluetooth and Beacons technology. More specifically, OPAP stores wherein you may bet using the OPAP Store app, are equipped with special technology (Beacons) that receives and reads Bluetooth signals transmitted by electronic devices.  

 

Therefore, if you have activated Bluetooth on your device, the Beacons placed within the OPAP store will recognize it. Further on, the Beacons will transmit an electronic signal to the OPAP Store app that you have installed in your device, allowing you to validly place a bet, since you are within a specific OPAP Store. 

 

 

  1. Why we Collect Personal Data 

In the context of OPAP Store app installation and use, we process the aforementioned data of yours, according to the following purposes and legal bases: 

A. Contract 

Processing of your data is necessary for the use of the main functions of the application. Namely, it is necessary in order for us to be able to provide you with the Company’s services with which you contractually agree via the application's Terms of Use. Such contractually required functionalities include ticket submission and bet placement, as well as supporting functions, such as mobile number verification, user support, transactional security, and troubleshooting.  

In order to proceed to winnings redeeming or “wallet” top-up, we ask for access to your device camera and we process the QR code that you scan, as well as the relevant data of the transaction that derive therefrom. 

Furthermore, if you activate the functionality of spotting the closest OPAP store, in order for that service to be provided we request and process the exact location of your device (GPS). 

Participation in OPAP Loyalty program: 

If you wish, you may participate in the OPAP Loyalty program (“OPAP Rewards”). In this case you must submit your contact information (mobile phone number and/or e-mail address) in order to register to the program via the OPAP Store App.  

For the implementation of the OPAP Loyalty program, OPAP S.A. and Hellenic Lotteries S.A.  process as Joint Controllers the following personal data for these respective purposes: 

  • The contact information you provide in order to receive communications for the prizes awarded in the context of the OPAP Loyalty program. If you have chosen to join the OPAP Loyalty program, but have not consented to receiving commercial communications (as described below), you will be receiving simple communication (Push Notification, SMS) about the winnings/rewards associated with your loyalty activity, without further promotional character (e.g. information on how many points you have accrued or notifications that you won a prize due to the points you have accrued).  

  • Data related to your playing behavior, which are collected when depositing / submitting participation slips, lottery tickets or when placing bets, in order to record your participation in draws and other rewards program features/benefits. 

The processing of the above data is contractually necessary under the OPAP Loyalty Program General Terms and Conditions, which are provided upon your personal data submission and selection of the respective tick boxes during your registration at the OPAP Loyalty program. 

Please note that during your registration with the OPAP Store App and provided that you were already a member of the loyalty program in the Company’s application “OPApp”, this will result in correlating the loyalty data of both your accounts, based on the (same) mobile phone number that you have declared, and therefore, the transfer of all of your loyalty data from the “OPApp” application to the OPAP Store application.  

B. Legislative Obligation 

OPAP Store app offers users the option to bet on games (e.g., KINO, PAME STOIXIMA), which, according to the applicable legislation, are allowed to be conducted only inside OPAP stores (agencies). Therefore, in order for a user to legally place a bet on these particular games via their device, we are obliged to ensure that the user is located inside an OPAP store at that specific moment. For this reason, it is mandatory that we collect data on your location while placing a bet via the application. The said location is confirmed with the use of Bluetooth technology, as previously explained. Therefore, we request permission for access to your device’s Bluetooth and we further process your location data as a necessary requirement for the lawful use of the OPAP Store app for betting purposes. 

C. Legitimate Interest 

The Company has a legitimate interest to conduct internal analyses for business development purposes, product and services improvement, as well as for better understanding of the preferences and needs of the OPAP Store app users. More specifically, based on the use and transactional data of the application, the Company also creates, at the same time, a general profile as regards different OPAP Store app user categories, in an aggregate, statistical format.  

Moreover, the Company has a legitimate interest to analyze, via automated means (without significant consequences for the users), data relevant to the accuracy, debugging and efficiency of the position tracking system via Bluetooth, so that the relevant algorithm is constantly improved in terms of speed and validity. 

D. Consent 

Following your prior explicit consent, the OPAP Group companies (OPAP S.A., Hellenic Lotteries S.A., Horse Races S.A., TORA DIRECT S.A., TORA WALLET S.A.) will be sending you generic commercial communication, to the channels you have selected (Push Notification, e-mail, SMS, Viber/Whatsapp, call, social media in which your profile is identified on the basis of your email address or mobile phone number).

The above communications will be sent to the contact details you have registered in the OPAP Store App and through the channels you have selected. You may withdraw this consent at any time and proceed with selecting different communication channels through the relevant fields in the "Communication Settings” menu or choose not to receive any communication from the OPAP Group. 

Lastly, the lawful basis of user consent is applicable with respect to enabling concrete location services (i.e. GPS location) on your device, for the purpose of providing even better and faster verification that you are indeed inside an OPAP retail Store. Such an additional layer of location verification is optional and is activated if you enable the respective permission on your device. 

Finally, in accordance with the provisions of the legislation on electronic communications, following your consent, we will be using software applications on your device that work as trackers in order to be able to better analyze the application use, to receive error reports and to be able to send personalized push notifications to your device.
