How the pick is made
The winner is chosen before the animation, with your browser's cryptographic random number generator (Web Crypto) and rejection sampling, so every option is equally likely. The wheel then turns so the pointer stops inside the chosen slice.
Nothing is stored or sent.
Limits: equal chance per spin does not mean equal results over a few spins — the same option can win twice in a row. For prize draws with legal requirements, follow the rules that apply to the draw.
