Responsible Gaming
Introduction
At DJH Engineering, we believe that gambling should be enjoyed purely as entertainment, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Betting should only be done with money you can afford to lose, and it should never interfere with your essential expenses, relationships, or wellbeing.
We are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices and supporting players who may be struggling with problem gambling.
Age Verification
In the United Kingdom, you must be 18 years of age or older to participate in gambling activities. If you are under 18, please do not use any betting services. We take age verification seriously and all our partners comply with UK Gambling Commission regulations.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you recognise any of the following signs in yourself or someone you know, it may be time to seek help:
- Spending more time and money on gambling than intended
- Chasing losses by gambling more to try to win back money
- Hiding gambling activities or lying about the amount wagered
- Neglecting family, work, education, or other important responsibilities
- Borrowing money or going into debt to gamble
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when not gambling
- Unsuccessful attempts to cut back or stop gambling
- Using gambling to escape problems, stress, or negative emotions
- Experiencing relationship problems due to gambling behaviour
Self-Help Tools
Most reputable betting operators offer tools to help you stay in control:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specified period (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to lose over a certain timeframe
- Reality Checks: Receive regular notifications reminding you of how long you've been gambling and how much you've staked
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently close your account to take a break from gambling
- Time Limits: Set session time limits to control how long you spend gambling
We encourage you to use these tools proactively to maintain healthy gambling habits.
