Fairness Policy

Last updated: April 2, 2026

Provably Fair

Every draw on BreakAuctions uses Random.org — an independent, certified randomness service. No draw result can be predicted or manipulated by us or anyone else.

Our Commitment

BreakAuctions is built on a single non-negotiable principle: every participant has a fair, equal, and mathematically verifiable chance of being drawn based solely on the number of spots they hold. We will never manipulate, delay, or interfere with any draw outcome. This policy describes exactly how we ensure that commitment is kept.

How the Draw Works

When an auction is ready to draw (all spots sold, or deadline reached), the following process occurs:

Spot numbers are locked

Every entry is recorded in our database before the draw is triggered. Spot numbers are assigned sequentially and permanently at the time of purchase — they cannot be changed.

Random.org generates the called number

We call the Random.org API to generate a single random integer between 1 and the total number of spots sold. Random.org uses atmospheric noise — a source of true randomness that is independent of any software algorithm.

The drawn entry is identified

We look up which entry holds the called spot number. That entry's owner claims the prize. There is no discretion or judgment involved — it is a deterministic lookup.

The result is recorded and published

The called spot number, the Random.org request ID, and the spot holder's username are recorded in our draw log and published on the Winners page. Anyone can verify the result.

Random.org

Random.org is an independent randomness service that has been operating since 1998. It generates random numbers using atmospheric noise measured from radio receivers — not software pseudorandomness. It is used by governments, universities, and businesses worldwide for lotteries, draws, and security applications.

Fallback Mechanism

In the rare event that Random.org is temporarily unavailable, our system automatically falls back to a cryptographically secure random number generator using Node.js's built-in crypto module. This fallback is unbiased and unpredictable, and its use is transparently flagged in the draw log on the Winners page.

Spot Assignment Integrity

Spot numbers are assigned at the database level using a transactional SQL function with row-level locking. This means it is technically impossible for two users to be assigned the same spot number, even if they purchase simultaneously. Every spot assignment is atomic, permanent, and auditable.

What We Cannot Do

We cannot predict or know the called number before the draw.
We cannot change the called number after it is generated.
We cannot assign drawn spots to specific users.
We cannot run a draw twice and pick a preferred outcome.
We cannot issue duplicate spot numbers to the same or different users.

Verifying a Draw

Every completed draw is logged with its Random.org request ID. You can independently verify any draw by:

Visiting the Winners page on BreakAuctions.
Noting the Random.org Request ID for the draw in question.
Contacting us at info@breakauctions.com to request the full draw log for any auction.
