Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
At allerdelavant.ca, we believe that online gaming should be an enjoyable form of entertainment, not a way to earn money or solve financial problems. We are committed to promoting responsible gambling practices and supporting the well-being of our players in Canada.
Remember: the house always has a mathematical advantage. Only gamble with money you can afford to lose, and never view gambling as a source of income.
Age Verification
Online gaming is restricted to individuals who are 18 years of age or older in Canada. It is your responsibility to ensure you meet the legal age requirement in your province or territory before participating in any gaming activities.
We use strict age verification procedures to prevent underage gambling. If you are under 18, you are not permitted to use our services.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can develop gradually. Be aware of these warning signs:
- Frequently thinking about gambling or past gaming sessions
- Needing to gamble with increasing amounts of money to achieve the same excitement
- Repeatedly trying to cut back or stop gambling without success
- Feeling restless or irritable when attempting to reduce or stop gambling
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
- Hiding or lying about the extent of your gambling activities
- Gambling to escape negative emotions, stress, or personal problems
- Jeopardizing relationships, work, education, or career opportunities due to gambling
- Borrowing money or accumulating debt to fund gambling
- Using credit cards or loans to continue gambling
- Experiencing financial difficulties or unpaid bills
If you recognize any of these signs in your own behavior, please seek help immediately.
