Responsible Gaming

Gaming Should Be Entertainment

At Beauttology, we're committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. Online pokies and casino games should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment only, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. The house always has a mathematical advantage, and you should never gamble with money you can't afford to lose.

Please gamble responsibly and within your means.

Age Verification

All players must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction) to participate in online gaming. Beauttology is committed to preventing underage gambling. If you are under the legal age, please do not register or attempt to play.

Parents and guardians: If you're concerned about a young person's gaming activity, please contact the support services listed below.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can affect anyone. Please be aware of the following warning signs:

• Chasing losses: Trying to win back money you've lost by gambling more
• Loss of control: Unable to stick to limits or stop when you want to
• Hiding gambling activity: Keeping your gaming secret from family or friends
• Gambling with money for essentials: Using money meant for bills, rent, or food
• Neglecting responsibilities: Missing work, school, or family commitments
• Mood changes: Becoming irritable, anxious, or depressed about gambling
• Increasing stakes: Needing to bet more money to feel the same excitement
• Failed attempts to cut back: Repeatedly trying and failing to reduce or stop
• Borrowing to gamble: Taking loans or using credit to fund gambling
• Physical symptoms: Sleep problems, headaches, or stress-related illness

If you recognize any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, please seek help immediately.

Self-Help Tools & Player Protections

Most reputable online gaming providers offer tools to help you maintain control:

• Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific period (daily, weekly, or monthly)
• Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to lose before you stop playing
• Reality Checks: Receive reminders about how long you've been playing and how much you've spent
• Session Time Limits: Automatically log off after a set period of play
• Self-Exclusion: Take a break from gaming for a period you choose (days, weeks, or months)
• Account Closure: Permanently close your account if needed

We encourage you to use these tools proactively. Your gaming should always be enjoyable and within your control.
