Responsible Social Gameplay Policy

VGW Luckyland, Inc. is committed to endorsing responsible social gameplay as a policy of customer care and social responsibility.

We believe it is our responsibility to you, our customers, to ensure that you enjoy your experience on our platform while remaining fully aware of possible social and financial harms caused by addiction to computer gameplay.

To ensure that you continue to enjoy safe and manageable play, we fully support responsible social gameplay and have put measures in place to assist you.

1. Maintaining Control

Computer games should be treated as a fun pastime, and not as a means to escape reality. In order to maintain control of your gameplay habits we remind you to always consider the following points:

1. Playing computer games should be done in moderation and undertaken as a form of leisure, not as a way to avoid your problems or a way to earn income.

2. Keep track of the time and monitor the amount you spend in the game.

3. Should you require some time out, you can take a break from playing at any time by following the steps in section 4 below.

 

2. Do you have a problem?

If you are concerned that playing computer games has had a negative impact on your life or someone else’s consider the following questions:

1. Does playing prevent you from attending work, university, or college?
2. Do you play to pass time or to escape boredom?
3. Do you play alone for long periods of time?
4. Have others ever criticized you for playing too much?
5. Have you lost interest in family, friends, or hobbies due to the amount of time you spend playing?
6. Have you ever lied to cover up the amount of time or money you spend playing computer games?
7. Have you lied, stolen, or borrowed in order to play computer games?
8. Are you reluctant to spend “computer game money” on anything else?
9. Do you play until you have no credits in your account on every occasion?
10. After losing all credits, do you feel that you must play again as soon as possible?
11. Do arguments, frustrations or disappointments make you want to play computer games?
12. Do computer games make you depressed or even suicidal?

The more questions that you answer “yes” to, the more likely it is that you are having difficulties with your gameplay. To speak with someone who can give you advice and support, please contact the Support Organisation referred to in section 3.

3. Support Organization

Should you wish to access help and support services for people who have been adversely affected by online gameplay, we advise you to get in touch with the CGAA using the following email address: [e-mail] 

Important: Please note that the CGAA is an independent problem gameplay support service and is NOT in any way affiliated with LuckyLand Slots. The CGAA does NOT provide customer support or dispute resolution services. Should you wish to discuss any matter or complaint related to your account, you can do so by contacting us at [e-mail]

 

4. Take a break or Stop Playing

If you feel that your computer gameplay has become problematic, you have the ability to deactivate your Luckyland Slots account by sending an email to [e-mail] requesting that your account be paused for responsible social gameplay reasons. Once your request is received and processed by our Customer Service department, your processed request will block your access to Luckyland Slots until you notify us otherwise by email to [e-mail]. Once we have received your request to deactivate your account, we will only be able to reinstate access 3 months after your original request.

Should you decide to self-exclude from Luckyland Slots we strongly recommend that you also deactivate your accounts with other game platforms you have an account with.

We will endeavor to apply your request as soon as practically possible, however, please note that this process takes a reasonable working period to implement. We will not consider this period as having commenced until it has been fully implemented and communicated to you. If after this you find that you can still access the Luckyland Slots platform, it is your responsibility to contact us immediately to inform us.

During a self-exclusion period, you will not have any access to the Luckyland Slots platform. If you require access to your account information during the deactivation period, you will need to email Customer Service at [e-mail].

During a deactivation period, we will always do all we can to detect and close any new duplicate accounts that you may open.

We also suggest that if you use social media channels, you should take steps to ensure that you don’t receive our news or updates. We recommend that, during a deactivation period, you seek additional support and advice from the Support Organisation set out in section 3 above.
