Short Summary
This document outlines the official procedures and internal controls for the operation of online lottery and online keno in Connecticut. The Connecticut Lottery Corporation (CLC) is responsible for establishing these procedures and obtaining written approval from the Department of Consumer Protection before promoting, implementing, or selling tickets online for these games. The procedures include safeguards to protect the electronic wagering platform from tampering and define the configuration of the platform. The Department of Consumer Protection has the authority to accept, reject, or require modifications to the procedures based on potential adverse impacts on gaming operations, data privacy, physical security, or the department’s regulatory effectiveness. The CLC has the right to appeal any rejection by requesting a hearing before the commissioner. The CLC must adhere to the official procedures and internal controls, with deviations allowed in emergency situations. Discontinuation of online lottery or online keno games requires written notice to the department, but it does not affect the rights of those who purchased tickets prior to the discontinuation. In unforeseen circumstances that may harm the public interest, the department can order an immediate suspension of online sales or drawings, with specific requirements for public notice and the establishment of new procedures to address the problems.
