Responsible Gaming
Gambling Should Be Entertainment
At Griffen Engineering, we believe that gambling should only ever be viewed as a form of entertainment, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Like any form of entertainment, it should only be enjoyed with money you can afford to lose.
Please gamble responsibly and within your means. If you feel your gambling is becoming a problem, help and support are available.
Age Verification
By using our website and placing bets, you confirm that you are:
- At least 18 years of age, or the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction (whichever is higher)
- Not a self-excluded individual from any gambling operator
- Legally permitted to gamble in your country of residence
We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of identity and age at any time.

Self-Help Tools & Controls
Most responsible gambling operators provide tools to help you stay in control:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit over a specified period (daily, weekly, monthly)
- Loss Limits: Restrict the maximum amount you can lose during a set timeframe
- Reality Checks: Receive regular reminders of how long you've been gambling and how much you've wagered
- Session Limits: Set a maximum time for each gambling session
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from an operator's platform
- Account Closure: Permanently close your account if you wish to stop gambling entirely
We encourage you to use these tools to maintain control over your gambling habits.
