Responsible Gaming

Effective Date: 1 January 2026

Last Updated: 1 January 2026

At Griffon Casino, we are committed to promoting responsible gaming and ensuring that our platform remains a source of entertainment rather than a problem. We recognise that for the vast majority of our players, online gaming is an enjoyable leisure activity. However, we also acknowledge that for some individuals, gaming can become problematic. This Responsible Gaming Policy outlines the measures, tools, and support systems Griffon Casino UK has implemented to help players maintain control over their gaming activities.

1. Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming

Griffon Casino is licensed and regulated by the UK Gambling Commission (UKGC), and we adhere to the highest standards of player protection. Our commitment includes:

  • Providing safe and secure gaming environment for all players
  • Preventing underage gambling and protecting vulnerable individuals
  • Offering tools and resources to help players manage their gaming behaviour
  • Training our staff to identify and assist players who may be experiencing difficulties
  • Partnering with leading responsible gaming organisations to provide support
  • Promoting awareness of responsible gaming practices across our platform

2. Understanding Problem Gaming

Problem gaming occurs when gambling behaviour interferes with daily life, relationships, work, or financial stability. Recognising the warning signs early is crucial. Consider whether gaming is becoming problematic if you experience any of the following:

  • Spending more time or money on gaming than you can afford
  • Chasing losses by continuing to play after losing money
  • Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gaming activities
  • Neglecting work, family, or personal responsibilities due to gaming
  • Feeling anxious, depressed, or irritable when not gaming
  • Lying to friends or family about the extent of your gaming
  • Gaming to escape problems or relieve feelings of helplessness
  • Attempting to stop or reduce gaming but being unable to do so

3. Self-Assessment Tools

Griffon Casino online provides players with access to self-assessment questionnaires designed to help you evaluate your gaming habits. These confidential tools can help you determine whether your gaming behaviour is within healthy limits or if you may need additional support.

Our self-assessment tools are based on clinically validated screening instruments and cover areas such as:

  • Time and money spent on gaming activities
  • Emotional responses to winning and losing
  • Impact of gaming on personal relationships and responsibilities
  • Feelings of control over gaming behaviour

You can access these tools at any time through your Griffon Casino login portal under the "Responsible Gaming" section.

4. Player Protection Tools

Griffon Casino bonus features and gaming platform include comprehensive tools that allow you to maintain control over your gaming activities:

4.1 Deposit Limits

Set daily, weekly, or monthly limits on the amount of money you can deposit into your Griffon Casino account. Once set, deposit limits take effect immediately for increases, while decreases are applied after a 24-hour cooling-off period.

4.2 Loss Limits

Establish limits on the amount you can lose over a specific period. Loss limits are calculated as deposits minus withdrawals and help you avoid chasing losses.

4.3 Wagering Limits

Control the total amount you can wager within a given timeframe, regardless of wins or losses. This tool helps you manage your overall gaming activity.

4.4 Session Time Limits

Set maximum session durations to receive reminders when you've been playing for a specified period. This feature helps prevent extended gaming sessions and encourages regular breaks.

4.5 Reality Checks

Receive pop-up notifications at regular intervals showing how long you've been playing and your current balance. Reality checks help you stay aware of time spent gaming.

4.6 Take a Break

Temporarily suspend your Griffon Casino UK account for a period of 24 hours, 48 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. During this time, you will not be able to access your account or receive marketing communications.

All player protection tools can be activated through your account settings. If you need assistance setting up any of these features, our support team is available 24/7 to help.

5. Self-Exclusion

Self-exclusion is a more comprehensive measure designed for players who feel they need to stop gaming entirely. When you self-exclude from Griffon Casino, the following measures take effect:

  • Your account is immediately suspended for the period you specify (minimum 6 months)
  • You will not be able to log in or create new accounts during the exclusion period
  • All marketing communications from Griffon Casino online will cease
  • Any pending withdrawals will be processed, and remaining funds will be returned to you
  • You will not be able to reverse self-exclusion until the chosen period expires

5.1 GAMSTOP - National Self-Exclusion Scheme

Griffon Casino is registered with GAMSTOP, the UK's national self-exclusion scheme. By registering with GAMSTOP, you can exclude yourself from all UKGC-licensed online gambling operators for a period of 6 months, 1 year, or 5 years.

6. Protecting Minors

  • Age verification checks during the registration process
  • Additional identity verification before processing withdrawals
  • Monitoring of account activity for suspicious patterns
  • Educational materials for parents and guardians about protecting children online
  • Parental control software recommendations to block access to gaming sites

  • Provide information about available support resources
  • Assist players in activating account restrictions or self-exclusion
  • Handle responsible gaming enquiries professionally and confidentially

If our team identifies concerning patterns in your gaming activity, we may proactively reach out to discuss your account and offer support tools. This intervention is conducted with respect for your privacy and wellbeing.

9. Marketing and Advertising Standards

Griffon Casino adheres to strict marketing standards to ensure our promotional activities are socially responsible:

  • We do not target marketing towards individuals who have self-excluded or set strict account limits
  • Our advertising does not appeal to minors or vulnerable individuals
  • Promotional materials include responsible gaming messages and links to support resources
  • We comply with all UK Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) guidelines
  • Players can opt out of marketing communications at any time through account settings

10. Affordability and Source of Funds

In compliance with UKGC regulations, Griffon Casino UK may conduct affordability assessments and request source of funds documentation when certain thresholds are met. These measures are designed to:

  • Ensure gaming activity is proportionate to your financial circumstances
  • Identify potential indicators of problem gaming or financial harm
  • Prevent money laundering and financial crime
  • Protect vulnerable customers from excessive losses

We understand these checks may be inconvenient, but they are essential components of our player protection framework. All information provided is handled confidentially and in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

11. Cooling-Off Periods

When you request to increase deposit, loss, or wagering limits, Griffon Casino online implements a 24-hour cooling-off period before the new limit takes effect. This delay provides time for reflection and helps prevent impulsive decisions during emotional moments.

Conversely, requests to decrease limits or activate restrictions take effect immediately to provide instant protection when you recognise the need for tighter controls.

12. Complaints and Disputes

If you have concerns about how Griffon Casino has handled responsible gaming matters, you may file a complaint through our formal complaints procedure outlined in our Terms and Conditions. You also have the right to escalate unresolved issues to:

  • UK Gambling Commission: The regulatory authority overseeing all licensed operators
  • Independent Betting Adjudication Service (IBAS): Alternative dispute resolution service for gambling-related disputes

13. Continuous Improvement

Griffon Casino is committed to continuously improving our responsible gaming measures. We regularly review our policies and practices to ensure they reflect current research, regulatory requirements, and best practices within the industry.

We welcome feedback from players, advocacy groups, and regulatory bodies to enhance our player protection framework and make Griffon Casino a safer environment for all users.
