Website Changes
We reserve the right to add, remove, modify, suspend, or terminate any aspect of the Services, content, or your access to the Services or content at any time and without notice.
Ownership of Website and Content
The website, including all of the Content on the Site, is owned by the Minnesota Lottery or by third parties who have licensed their content to the Minnesota Lottery. No right, title, or interest in the Site or any content on the Site is transferred to you under these Terms.
Member Account
The Minnesota Lottery member account is a voluntary website feature designed for players and other participants in the Minnesota Lottery. Membership is strictly voluntary and in no way affects consumers’ ability to interact with the Lottery, such as purchasing tickets or winning Lottery games. Membership is required for second chance drawings, giveaways, and opting in to receive promotional emails. Membership is open to individuals age 18 or older with a valid email address. Any attempt to circumvent these requirements by entering false data into the sign-up form may constitute fraud. Users accept full responsibility for the profiles they create.
When you register for a member account and Services you will be asked to enter your email address and provide a password. You are responsible for keeping your password, your account, and all activities and usage that occur on your account confidential.
If your email address or personal information changes, you should change your member account profile settings under "My Account.” If you no longer desire the Services, you are welcome to go to account settings in your member account and click “Close My Account” under “My Account.” We will deactivate your profile but may retain any record of your information consistent with the Minnesota Government Data Practices Act. By registering for a member account, you acknowledge and consent that, even after the deactivations of your profile and personal information from the Lottery website, your information may remain viewable in cached and archived pages of individuals who have copied or stored such information or content.
