Our Commitment to Responsible Gambling
At Casino Privé, we believe gambling should always remain a form of entertainment and never become a source of financial, personal or emotional difficulty.
Our approach to responsible gambling rests on three pillars: prevention, awareness of the risks, and transparent information, so that every player can make informed decisions.
Gambling carries an inherent risk of financial loss and addiction. No outcome is guaranteed, and past wins say nothing about future results.
The Essentials of Responsible Gambling
Healthy play means knowing your limits and staying in control at all times. We strongly recommend that you:
- Set a strict budget before every session and never exceed it.
- Set a time limit for your sessions so they don’t run on for too long.
- Never chase your losses by suddenly raising your stakes.
- Avoid playing under the influence of alcohol or drugs, or when you are in a fragile emotional state.
- Never borrow money to fund your gambling.
- Take regular breaks and make time for everything else in your life: work, hobbies and relationships.
- Treat losses as the cost of entertainment, not as a financial problem to be fixed by playing more.
Gambling should never be seen as a way out of financial difficulties or as a source of regular income.
How to Recognise the Signs of Problem Gambling
Certain behaviours can signal a gradual loss of control. The main warning signs include:
- Thinking about gambling constantly and looking forward to the next session.
- Regularly spending more than the budget you set.
- Feeling an urge to raise your stakes to get the same excitement.
- Hiding your gambling habits or how much you spend from those close to you.
- Neglecting your work, family or personal responsibilities.
- Feeling anxious, frustrated or irritable when you can’t play.
- Continuing to play despite repeated financial losses.
If several of these sound familiar, we strongly advise you to pause your gambling and seek specialist support.
Setting Limits and Staying in Control
Managing your time and money is essential to avoid gambling getting out of hand. Before you start playing at Casino Privé, decide on a maximum amount you can afford to lose without affecting your essential costs, such as rent, bills and food.
Also set a maximum length for each session, and make sure you take breaks. If limit tools such as deposit limits, stake limits or time-spent reminders are available to you, using them is an effective way to reduce risk. Bear in mind, however, that these tools are no substitute for self-awareness or professional help if you have developed a gambling problem.
Self-Exclusion and Taking a Break
When someone feels they are no longer in control of their gambling, a voluntary break is often necessary. Several options may be available depending on the situation:
- Temporarily suspending access to your player account.
- Voluntary self-exclusion for a set period.
- Permanently closing your account.
- Registering for a multi-operator self-exclusion scheme in your jurisdiction.
In Great Britain, you can exclude yourself from all UK-licensed online gambling operators at once through GamStop
How self-exclusion works may vary between operators and under the applicable regulations.
Protection of Minors
Casino Privé’s services are strictly for people who have reached the legal gambling age in their jurisdiction.
- Anyone under 18 is not permitted to open an account or take part in gambling.
- We strongly encourage parents and guardians to install and use parental control software to filter access to gambling sites.
- Never leave your login details saved on shared devices, such as family computers or tablets, to prevent unauthorised access by minors.

Regulatory Information
Every user is responsible for making sure online gambling is legal in their country or region of residence. Casino Privé reminds players that they must comply with the local laws that apply to them.
Our Priority: A Controlled Gaming Experience
Entertainment should never take priority over your health, your family life or your financial stability. Casino Privé encourages you to gamble in moderation, to stay alert to the risks, and to ask for help as soon as you need it.
Gamble responsibly. Know when to stop.
