Responsible Gambling and Self Exclusion

Responsible Gambling

Gambling means for the majority of our Users, entertainment, fun and excitement. But we also know that for some of our Users gambling has negative side effects. In the medical science is pathologic gambling since many years as serious sickness recognised.

Since our first day we have thought about this problem and try our best to help. Under “Responsible Gambling” We understand multiple steps of measures, with which a gambling provider can help to lower the possibility of negative side effects appearing. -In case they already appear we also try to take active steps against them.

The most important instrument against negative side effects from gambling is knowledge and education about the risks of gambling to support our Users self-control in order to make sure they do not suffer from negative side effects.
