Are you sure the address was your own and not that of a previous business partner of your? Was the address that you scanned one of your own "receive addresses"? What do you see when you log into their web interface?

<p>Do you have access to this address?</p>

<p>If not, then you bought someone else some bitcoins.</p>

<p>You can't do anything with the adress. Are there any other codes on the receipt? If so, download <a href="https://electrum.org/#home" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://electrum.org/#home</a> and try to import them on there.</p>

When you purchase bitcoins at an ATM, you have to provide a destination where they'll deliver the bitcoins. Recipient information is provided in form of *addresses*. The receipt shows an address to which the ATM delivered the bitcoins. As pointed out by other answers, the [bitcoins were actually sent to that address](https://blockexplorer.com/address/1LacZjntH84Ap6FPEkb5UBxpZqjH9dw7F4).

The question is now, how did you provide the destination address for the purchase? Did you perhaps show a QR code from a wallet on your phone, or had a printed QR code that you got scanned by the ATM? The bitcoins would have been received to the corresponding wallet, e.g. on your phone if it was a mobile phone wallet.
