Responsible Gaming

Responsible gaming is founded on the principle of a conscious and informed approach to gambling entertainment. It emphasizes that gambling should remain an enjoyable activity without causing harm or negative consequences to the player. At europalace, we are committed to fostering a safe gaming environment by promoting responsible behavior and providing comprehensive support for all players.

Our objective is to ensure that every individual who engages with europalace.bet does so with full awareness of potential risks and has access to the necessary tools and assistance to maintain control over their gambling activities.

Risk Awareness

Recognizing the signs of potential gambling addiction is crucial for maintaining a healthy gaming experience. Indicators may include frequent or increasingly larger bets, persistent thoughts about gambling outside of playing sessions, neglect of personal or professional responsibilities, and an inability to stop or reduce gambling activity despite wanting to do so.

To assist players in self-assessing their relationship with gambling, please consider the following statements. Reflect honestly on your behavior by indicating how often these apply to you:

1. I find myself thinking about gambling when I am not playing.
2. I often feel the need to gamble with larger amounts to achieve the desired excitement.
3. I have tried to stop or cut down my gambling but was unsuccessful.
4. I gamble to escape problems or relieve feelings of helplessness, guilt, anxiety, or depression.
5. My gambling has caused me to miss work, social activities, or family obligations.

If you answered "often" or "always" to one or more of these statements, it may indicate problematic gambling behavior, and we encourage you to seek support and consider employing responsible gaming tools.

Limits & Tools

europalace.bet provides various tools to help players regulate their gambling activities and protect themselves from potential overindulgence. Setting deposit limits, session time controls, and implementing breaks are fundamental components of these tools.

Setting Deposit Limits

Players can establish daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits to control their spending on europalace.bet. To set these limits:

1. Log into your personal account on europalace.bet.
2. Navigate to the "Responsible Gaming" or "Account Settings" section.
3. Select "Deposit Limits" and specify the desired limit for the chosen period (daily, weekly, or monthly).
4. Enter appropriate numeric values in Canadian dollars (CAD) that reflect your personal budget and gaming preferences.
5. Confirm and save the settings. These limits will take immediate effect and prevent deposits exceeding the established amounts.

Session Timers and Time-Outs

To manage the length of gambling sessions, europalace.bet offers session timers that alert players when a pre-set amount of time has elapsed. In addition, players may choose to activate a "Time-Out" - a temporary break from all gambling activities on the platform for a duration between 24 and 72 hours:

1. Access your personal account and proceed to the "Responsible Gaming" section.
2. Under "Time Management," enable session timers specifying your preferred maximum duration per gaming session.
3. To activate a Time-Out, select the "Time-Out" option and choose a break period ranging from 24 to 72 hours.
4. Confirm your choice. During the Time-Out period, access to gambling features will be restricted, though account login may still be possible.

These tools are designed to facilitate control over gambling habits by imposing enforced pauses and encouraging mindful play.

Self-Exclusion

europalace.bet allows players to self-exclude voluntarily as a preventative or corrective measure against problematic gambling. Self-exclusion blocks access to your account and suspends all gambling activities for a selected duration or permanently.

How to Self-Exclude

1. Log in to your account on europalace.bet.
2. Navigate to the "Responsible Gaming" section and select "Self-Exclusion."
3. Choose the duration of your self-exclusion period. Options include temporary periods starting from six months, up to a permanent (lifetime) exclusion.
4. Carefully read the terms and conditions related to self-exclusion.
5. Confirm your decision to self-exclude. This action is irreversible until the chosen period elapses.

Consequences of Self-Exclusion

• During the self-exclusion period, you will not be able to log in to your account or participate in any gaming activities on europalace.bet.
• All pending withdrawals will be processed in accordance with europalace.bet's terms and applicable regulations; however, no new wagers may be placed.
• europalace.bet will retain your account details solely for compliance and regulatory purposes during your self-exclusion.
• At the end of the self-exclusion period, you will need to contact customer support to request account reactivation, subject to verification processes.

If you need assistance or have questions during the self-exclusion process, please contact the responsible gaming department.
