*Advertising does not refer to the coronavirus, World Health Organisation (WHO) coronavirus-related statements and/or any other coronavirus-related developments.
*Advertising does not portray gambling as a solution to social, personal or financial problems or invites customers to gamble online as a solution to boredom.
*Advertising and websites contain signposted information about minimum age restrictions, national problem gambling helplines and national self-exclusion registers.
*Customers are closely monitored for problematic gambling behaviour, in compliance with GDPR provisions, and step up interventions when appropriate.
*Websites contain robust and rigorously enforced Know Your Customer (KYC) measures to verify the identity of new customers and prevent minors from gambling.
*Websites contain responsible gambling tools – such as deposit limits and self-exclusion tools – which are actively promoted and visible.
