What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device. Some are essential to make a site work; others track what you do for analytics or advertising.

Cookies on this website

The pages of this website set no cookies at all. We do not use analytics, advertising, social media or tracking cookies, so we do not show a cookie banner.

Payment pages

When you buy lottery tickets or donate, you pay on pages provided by Stripe. Stripe sets strictly necessary cookies to process your payment securely and to prevent fraud. Because they are strictly necessary, they do not need your consent under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations. You can read more in Stripe’s cookie policy (opens in a new tab).

If this changes

If we ever add analytics or any non-essential cookies, we will update this page, list each cookie and ask for your consent before setting them.

Managing cookies

You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking Stripe’s cookies may stop payments working.

Play responsibly

You must be 18 or over to play the Girlguiding Tay and Ochils County Lottery. Lottery play should be fun and never a way to make money. Only spend what you can afford. If gambling is causing you or someone you know harm, free and confidential help is available.

Tickets cannot be sold to anyone under 18. We may ask for proof of age before paying a prize.

The Girlguiding Tay and Ochils County Lottery is a small society lottery under Schedule 11 of the Gambling Act 2005, promoted on behalf of Girlguiding Tay and Ochils (Scottish charity SC002886) and registered with Perth & Kinross Council, the licensing authority for the area where the society’s principal office is located.
