RESPONSIBLE GAMBLING – PLAY SAFE, STAY IN CONTROL
GTECH is an informational catalog of slots and crash games. We do not operate a casino, accept bets, or process deposits. However, we care about your well‑being. If you choose to play for real money on third‑party casino sites linked from our catalog, please do so responsibly.
WHAT IS RESPONSIBLE GAMBLING?
Responsible gambling means staying in control of how much time and money you spend on gambling activities. It is not about how much you win or lose — it is about making informed decisions and treating gambling as entertainment, not as a way to make money.
GOLDEN RULES OF RESPONSIBLE GAMBLING
-
Set a time limit before you start playing.
-
Set a money limit (loss limit) and never exceed it.
-
Never chase losses — accepting a loss is part of the game.
-
Do not gamble when you are upset, stressed, or under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
-
Take regular breaks. Gambling should not be a continuous activity.
-
Treat gambling as a paid form of entertainment, like going to the cinema or a concert.
-
Never borrow money to gamble.
WARNING SIGNS OF PROBLEM GAMBLING
Ask yourself these questions honestly:
-
Do you spend more money or time on gambling than you can afford?
-
Do you find it difficult to stop gambling, even when you are losing?
-
Do you think about gambling constantly — even when you are at work or with family?
-
Have you ever lied to friends or family about how much you gamble?
-
Do you gamble to escape boredom, stress, or personal problems?
-
Have you sold personal belongings or borrowed money to fund gambling?
-
Do you feel anxious or depressed after a gambling session?
If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, you may be at risk. Please consider seeking help.
TOOLS TO STAY IN CONTROL
Most licensed casinos offer built‑in tools to help you gamble responsibly. These include:
-
Deposit limits – set a daily, weekly, or monthly limit on how much you can deposit.
-
Loss limits – cap the amount you can lose within a certain period.
-
Time reminders – receive pop‑up notifications showing how long you have been playing.
-
Self‑exclusion – temporarily or permanently block yourself from accessing your casino account.
-
Reality checks – automatic messages that remind you to take a break.
We strongly recommend you activate these tools before you start playing for real money.

MINORS AND UNDERAGE GAMBLING
You must be at least 18 years old (or the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction) to use our Site and to play at any linked casino. We do not knowingly collect information from minors.

GTECH’S ROLE – WE ARE NOT A CASINO
Remember: GTECH is an informational catalog. We do not accept bets, hold funds, or process withdrawals. All real‑money gambling takes place on external licensed casino websites. Those sites have their own responsible gambling policies and tools. We encourage you to read them carefully before depositing.
REMEMBER
Gambling is entertainment. The house always has an edge. No system, chart, or “expert tip” can change that. Play for fun — not for income. If it stops being fun, stop playing.
If you need immediate help, call a helpline today. You are not alone.
