Why was my game considered drawn by repetition? I clearly did not make 3 same move and was clearly winning. Is this standard chess rule? Or did i miss something. Thanks in advance

The position after black's 36th, 38th and 40th move were the same. Your opponent claimed the draw since it was a triple-repitition of position.
