Responsible Gambling - Roulo
At Roulo, we believe that online gaming should be an entertaining and enjoyable experience. We are fully committed to providing a safe, secure, and responsible environment for all our players. However, we recognize that for a small percentage of users, gambling can shift from a form of entertainment to a serious issue. This page outlines our comprehensive Responsible Gambling policy, our commitment to player protection, and the tools we provide to ensure you maintain control over your gaming habits. Our mission is to promote a healthy relationship with gaming through transparency, education, and proactive support.
Our Commitment to Player Safety
Roulo operates under strict licensing requirements which mandate the implementation of rigorous player protection measures. We view responsible gambling not merely as a regulatory obligation, but as a core pillar of our operational ethics. We utilize sophisticated technology to monitor gaming patterns, ensuring that we can identify potential signs of problem gambling and intervene when necessary.
Tools for Maintaining Control
We provide a suite of account management tools designed to help you set boundaries and monitor your activity. We encourage all players to utilize these features as a preventative measure.
1. Deposit Limits
You have the ability to set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits. These limits are designed to help you manage your budget effectively. Any request to lower a limit will be processed immediately, while requests to increase a limit will be subject to a 24-hour cooling-off period to allow for reflection.
2. Reality Checks
To ensure you stay aware of the time spent on our platform, you can activate 'Reality Check' notifications. These reminders will appear at intervals of your choosing, displaying your total session duration and net wins or losses, prompting you to decide whether to continue or log off.
3. Time-Outs and Self-Exclusion
If you feel you need a break, we offer the following options:
- Time-Out: A short-term break ranging from 24 hours to 6 weeks. During this period, you will be unable to log in or deposit funds.
- Self-Exclusion: A more formal commitment for players who need to step away from gambling for a longer period. Self-exclusion can be set for 6 months, 1 year, 5 years, or permanently. During this time, we will take all reasonable steps to prevent you from opening new accounts and ensure you are removed from our marketing databases.
Recognizing Problem Gambling
Gambling should never be viewed as a way to make money or recover losses. If you are concerned about your own or someone else's gambling behavior, ask yourself the following questions:
- Do you spend more time or money than you intended?
- Do you gamble to escape problems or negative feelings?
- Have you borrowed money or sold personal items to fund your gambling?
- Do you find yourself chasing losses in an attempt to win back money?
- Has gambling caused conflict in your personal relationships or work life?
If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, we strongly encourage you to seek professional advice.
