Responsible Gambling Policy
DocDropZone is committed to promoting safe and responsible gambling practices. We believe that gambling should be an enjoyable form of entertainment, not a way to make money or solve financial problems.
1. What is Responsible Gambling?
Responsible gambling means enjoying casino games in a safe and controlled manner. It involves:
- Setting time and money limits before you start playing
- Never gambling more than you can afford to lose
- Not gambling when upset, angry, or under the influence
- Treating gambling as entertainment, not an investment
2. Setting Limits
Before you start gambling, decide:
- How much money you can afford to lose
- How long you want to play
- When you will stop playing
Stick to these limits and never chase your losses.
3. Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Be aware of these warning signs:
- Spending more money than you can afford
- Gambling for longer than planned

- Borrowing money to gamble
- Feeling anxious or depressed about gambling
