Responsible Gaming
Introduction
At Airedale Olympic, we believe that gambling should be enjoyed as entertainment only. It is never a reliable way to earn money or solve financial problems. Please gamble responsibly and within your means. If you find yourself struggling with your gambling habits, support is available.
Age Verification
All visitors and players must be 18 years of age or older (or the legal age of majority in your jurisdiction). We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age at any time. If you are under 18, please do not access gambling services on this website.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can develop gradually. Please be honest with yourself and watch for these warning signs:
- Gambling with money you cannot afford to lose
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover lost money
- Hiding your gambling activity from family or friends
- Borrowing money to gamble
- Neglecting work, school, or family responsibilities due to gambling
- Feeling anxious or irritable when unable to gamble
- Lying about the time or money spent gambling
- Gambling to escape problems or negative emotions
- Unable to cut down or stop gambling despite wanting to
- Experiencing relationship strain because of gambling
If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone else, please seek help immediately.
Self-Help Tools
Responsible gambling tools can 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 are willing to lose
- Reality Checks: Receive reminders during your gaming session about how long you have been playing and how much you have spent
- Time-Out: Take a break from gambling for a set period (hours, days, or weeks)
- Self-Exclusion: Voluntarily ban yourself from accessing gambling sites for a defined period or permanently
Speak with the casino's customer support team to activate any of these tools on your account.
