J) PERSONAL DATA PROTECTION
SISTEMAS TÉCNICOS DE LOTERÍAS DEL ESTADO, S.A.U. (hereinafter also STL) whose fiscal address is calle Manuel Tovar, 9, 28034 Madrid (Spain), wishes to inform users of the Site at www.stl.es of its policy concerning the processing and protection of the personal data of users and clients acquired from them while they are viewing the Site or using the services offered therein.
The collection of personal data, their processing and later use are subject to the legislation currently in force in Spain concerning data protection, established by the Personal Data Protection Act (hereinafter the LOPD), Organic Law 15/1999 (December 13), and its complementary regulations. STL will only be liable for, and will only guarantee the confidentiality and security of the personal data it receives from users through the Site accepting no form of liability for the processing and later use of said personal data by third parties. In particular STL implements data processing declared before the Agencia Española de Protección de Datos related to the activities derived from the Site. If the user does not wish STL to process their personal data, we ask them please to contact STL anonymously. The user may use pseudonyms or another type of anonymous data though, if the user conveys personal data to STL, said communication must be true and valid. In any case, the user is prohibited from submitting data and/or using personal data pertaining to other third persons.
Regarding personal data which STL may receive via e-mail from users, the purpose of processing shall correspond to those of attending to and handling the request made by the user at all times and the maintenance of communications records.
STL warns the user that, if the user wishes to communicate personal data to STL and is a minor and/or incapacitated, it shall be necessary to have the consent of their parents, guardians or legal representatives for the communication of their personal data, and hence STL requests abstaining from using the e-mail service unless consent is forthcoming from parents, guardians or legal representatives, STL otherwise not being responsible for the actions of said minor or incapacitated person.
The user may at any time exercise their rights to get access to, rectify, cancel and oppose by writing to: STL, Manuel Tovar, 9, 28034-Madrid or to that address which may at any time replace it as registered with the Spanish Data Protection General Registry (Registro General de Protección de Datos. Exercising these rights is a highly personal matter, and so only the user themselves may exercise said rights regarding the personal data of which they are the legitimate owner.
STL hereby informs that the exercise of said rights by a third party who is not legally authorised by the user may involve the perpetration of a criminal offence without prejudice to any other consequences which may be forthcoming as a result of any civil or administrative procedures that both the legitimate owner of the personal data and the STL may have a right to exercise.


Recommendations to users
STL would remind users that Internet is not always as secure as is expected, and thus recommends the user should use the latest versions of computer programmes given that they include greater security measures for the protection of the confidentiality and integrity of your data to the extent to which they may require, given that the risk exists that you may be impersonated or your communications may be intercepted. If you do not wish to publish your e-mail address, please set up your browser so that it does not leave your e-mail address on the web servers you access.


K) DURATION AND TERMINATION
Access to, and the contents and services offered on the site, will in principle last indefinitely. STL, however, is authorised to terminate or suspend access to the site, the services and/or contents thereof at any time, notwithstanding the terms and conditions established in the Special Conditions, when applicable. When reasonably possible, STL shall previously warn as to the termination or suspension of the rendering of Site and other services.


L) NULLIBILITY AND ANNULMENT
Should a given clause of these general conditions, or as the case may be, of the particular conditions regulating the use of the given service and/or content, be annulled or considered void, in whole or in part, such annulment or nullibility shall not affect the validity of any other clauses contained herein, which shall remain fully effective and valid, except where the party alleging nullibility or voidability can satisfactorily prove that without the clause considered to be voidable or annullable the purpose of the present Conditions can no longer be fulfilled.


M) LEGISLACIÓN APLICABLE Y JURISDICCIÓN
These general conditions are governed under the present general conditions by Spanish Law and by the resolution of any disputes related thereto at the Courts and Tribunals of the Capital city of Madrid.
