Online gaming is supposed to be a fun and recreational pastime but for a minority of players it can become a problem that adversely affects their lives and the lives of their loved ones. Slots.lv is committed to responsible gambling and we are dedicated to providing a fun gaming experience for all our players. As such we take very seriously our responsibility to provide a gaming service in a socially responsible way.
Here is how we promote responsible gaming:
PREVENTING UNDERAGE GAMBLING
Online gaming is a form of adult entertainment and it is illegal for anyone under the age of 18 to play on Slots.lv. All of our players must be 18 or older and we reserve the right to ask for verification documents from any member and may deactivate any account until such proof is received.
Anyone under the age of 18 that is found to be gaming on this site will have all their winnings forfeited.
To prevent underage access we recommend the Internet's most trusted parental control filtering sites:
RESPONSIBLE GAMBLING TIPS AND STRATEGIES
In order to keep gambling enjoyable and under control, we recommend that you follow these tips:
- Avoid chasing losses and stick to your predetermined budget.
- Be aware and keep track of how much money you are spending.
- Do not gamble if you are under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
- Treat gambling as a form of entertainment and not a source of income.
- Only gamble money you can afford to lose.
- Plan how much time you want to spend for each gambling session and monitor the time.
- Do not gamble if you are depressed or to avoid other problems in your life.
PERSONAL LIMITS & SELF-EXCLUSION
It's easy for unmanaged gaming to become problem gaming, which is why we can limit your betting amounts however you wish. We also have the ability to block your access to the site if your play becomes a problem.
If you think you have a problem we urge you to take one of the self-assessment test offered by problem gambling prevention organisations such as Gamcare or Gambling Help Online.

These tests take just a few minutes to complete and could be the warning sign you need. You can also find links to local resources for the treatment of problem gambling.
Please contact customer service if you would like to lower your betting limits or close your account. When contacting us by email don't forget to include account number and the action you would like us to take, such as limiting or closing the account. The Customer Service team will help you close your account and take steps to ensure that you cannot gamble with us again.
