Responsible Gaming

Last updated: October 2025

1. Our Commitment

At TrustedPlayHub, we believe that gaming should always be about entertainment — not profit.
We are fully committed to promoting responsible gaming practices, raising awareness about potential risks, and supporting users in maintaining healthy play habits.

Our platform is educational and independent.
We do not operate any gambling services, process payments, or host real-money games.
Our goal is to help you make informed, responsible, and secure decisions before engaging with any online gaming platform.


2. The Principles of Responsible Play

  1. Know the Rules and the Odds
    Before playing, understand how the game works, including payout percentages (RTP) and volatility levels.
  2. Set Limits Before You Start
    Define a maximum budget and time limit for your gaming sessions — and stick to them.
  3. Never Chase Losses
    Losing is part of the experience. Chasing losses can lead to bigger problems and emotional stress.
  4. Play for Fun, Not Income
    Gambling should be viewed as entertainment, not a way to make money or solve financial issues.
  5. Take Regular Breaks
    Step away, clear your mind, and keep gaming balanced with other activities.
  6. Know When to Stop
    If gaming stops being fun or you feel out of control, it’s time to seek help.

3. Tools and Resources Available to Players

Many licensed operators provide built-in tools to help players stay in control:

  • Deposit and Loss Limits – Set caps on the amount you can spend.
  • Session Timers – Get reminders about how long you’ve been playing.
  • Reality Checks – Automated messages showing your current session status.
  • Cool-Off Periods – Temporarily suspend your account for a few days or weeks.
  • Self-Exclusion Options – Block access to gaming platforms for longer periods.

Always verify that the operator you use provides these responsible-gaming features.


4. Recognizing Problem Gambling

You may be at risk if you:

  • Spend more time or money on gambling than planned.
  • Borrow money or neglect responsibilities due to gaming.
  • Feel anxious, guilty, or irritable when not playing.
  • Hide your gambling activity from family or friends.

If any of these apply, consider seeking help immediately. Recognizing early warning signs is the most important step toward regaining control.


5. Professional Help & Support

If you believe gambling is causing harm or distress, contact one of the following trusted organizations for free and confidential assistance:

  • GamCare — UK-based helpline and counseling services.
  • BeGambleAware — 24/7 confidential support and self-assessment tools.
  • SICAD — Serviço de Intervenção nos Comportamentos Aditivos e nas Dependências (Portugal).
  • EGBA — European Gaming and Betting Association resources.
  • Jugadores Anónimos — Peer support network for individuals affected by problem gambling.

All these organizations offer counseling, online chats, and self-help programs designed to promote recovery and responsible play.


6. Underage Gambling

We do not target or provide content for minors.
Parents and guardians should use filtering tools (e.g., Net Nanny, Qustodio, or CyberPatrol) to prevent minors from accessing gambling-related websites.
