Responsible Gaming Policy

BKD8 (the “Company”), operator of the online casino website https://www.bkd8gaming.com (“Website”), is committed to promoting responsible gaming and enhancing efforts to prevent and mitigate excessive gaming. This policy outlines the Company’s commitments as well as your role in fostering responsible gambling practices and mitigating the adverse effects of excessive gaming.

Terms capitalized herein but not defined in this Responsible Gaming Policy shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Website Terms and Conditions, available at https://bkd8gaming.com/info/termsofuse, which are incorporated by reference into this Responsible Gaming Policy.

We are dedicated to ensuring your enjoyment of our Website's gaming experience while ensuring awareness of the social and financial implications associated with excessive gaming. We view gaming as an entertaining activity and emphasize the importance of responsible play and self-control. It's important to note that gaming entails financial risk and may lead to addiction. We urge you to play responsibly and at your own discretion.

GUIDELINES FOR RESPONSIBLE GAMING:

If you choose to engage in gaming on our Website, here are some general guidelines to enhance the safety of your experience and reduce the risk of issues related to excessive gaming:

* Only use funds for purchasing Play Money that you can afford to spend.

* Avoid using funds meant for essential expenses such as food, rent, bills, or tuition to purchase Play Money.

* Plan your gaming sessions and adhere to predetermined limits regardless of your performance.

* Refrain from gaming when experiencing negative emotions like upset, fatigue, or depression, as these can impair decision-making.

* Prioritize important tasks over gaming activities to maintain a clear mind.

* Diversify your leisure activities to prevent gaming from dominating your life.

* Refrain from borrowing money to finance gaming activities.

* Avoid exhausting all purchased Play Money in a single session.

* Take regular breaks and time outs during gaming sessions.

UNDERAGE USERS:

The Company maintains a strict policy against underage users (individuals under 21 years of age). To prevent underage gaming and ensure compliance with regulations, we may request identification and documentation from suspected underage users. Any accounts found to belong to underage users will be promptly deactivated or deleted.

While we invest resources to prevent minors from accessing our Website, we believe in shared responsibility with parents/guardians to enforce age restrictions. Below are some tips to prevent minors, including children, from accessing our Website:

* Avoid leaving devices logged into the Website unattended.

* Secure devices with password protection and parental controls to restrict access.

* Install and utilize child protection software on children's devices to block access to the Website.

ACCOUNT CLOSURE REQUEST:

You have the option to close your account at any time by contacting our Support Team at [email protected]. Please note that accounts closed through standard closure mechanisms can be reopened upon request. However, if you believe you are at risk of or currently experiencing gaming addiction, we recommend considering self-exclusion, explained below.

SELF-EXCLUSION:

We offer a self-exclusion feature to assist users who feel gaming is negatively impacting their lives and wish to seek assistance. Upon request, we will suspend your account for a specified period as determined by you. To request self-exclusion, please contact our Support Team at [email protected]. Once initiated, self-exclusion cannot be reversed until the specified duration ends.

During the exclusion period, both the Company and the user are committed to preventing account reactivation or the opening of new accounts. Users also have the option to opt-out of marketing communications by emailing [email protected].

BLOCK BY COMPANY:

The Company reserves the right to temporarily block access to User Accounts in cases of abnormal activity, such as excessive purchases of Play Money or incomplete Know Your Customer (KYC) information. Communication will be provided to users regarding any blocks placed on their accounts.

CONSEQUENCES OF EXCLUSION:

Any self-exclusion, blockage, or closure initiated by the Company applies to the entire User Account, prohibiting access to all games on the Website. Users will be unregistered from ongoing tournaments, and marketing communications will cease during the exclusion period.

DEPOSIT LIMITS:

By default, users are permitted to deposit a minimum of PHP 100 and a maximum of PHP 200,000 in aggregate over 24 hours. Users can modify deposit limits using the Responsible Gaming Self Limitation tool.
