1. Our Commitment

choose to visit our affiliate partners' licensed gaming platforms after clicking links on our
Site. This Responsible Gaming page provides information and resources to promote safe,
controlled play.

In alignment with the Canadian Gaming Association's Code for Responsible
Gaming Advertising (effective January 1, 2026) , we adhere to the following principles :

notices. We do not use cartoon characters, mascots, or content appealing to minors.Truthful
AdvertisingWe never exaggerate winning chances or imply that gambling is a solution to financial

3. Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Gambling becomes problematic when it negatively affects
your finances, relationships, or mental health. Ask yourself:
- Do you spend more money or time on gambling than you can afford?
- Do you chase losses by gambling again immediately?
- Have you lied to family or friends about your gambling?
- Do you gamble to escape stress, loneliness, or depression?
- Have you borrowed money or sold possessions to gamble?
If you answer "yes" to any of these questions, please use the resources below.

5. Tools for Safer Play
Our affiliate partners (licensed Canadian gaming platforms) are
required to provide:
- Deposit limits – Set daily, weekly, or monthly maximums
- Loss limits – Cap your net losses over a period
- Session time reminders – Notifications of time spent playing
- Self-exclusion – Temporarily or permanently block access
- Cooling-off periods – Short breaks (24 hours to several weeks)
If a platform does not offer these tools, please contact us at responsible@PreciousPetsResort.com and we will review our partnership.
6. Age Restriction
You must be the legal gambling age in your province (18 or 19) to click
affiliate links or open accounts with our gaming partners. Our prediction stand itself has no
age restriction — it is family-friendly entertainment.
We use age verification prompts on
pages containing affiliate links. Knowingly allowing minors to access gambling content violates
our terms and may result in referral to authorities.
7. Self-Exclusion
If you wish to exclude yourself from all licensed online gambling in
Canada, register with BetStop (www.betstop.ca). This free, national self-exclusion register
prevents you from opening accounts across all participating platforms for a chosen period (6
months to 5 years or lifetime).
8. Advertising and Affiliate Links
Our Site contains affiliate links to licensed gaming
platforms. All such content includes:
- Clear labeling: "Advertisement" or "Affiliate Link"
- Visible 18+ icon
- The message: "Play responsibly — Gambling can be addictive"
We comply with the CGA Code for Responsible Gaming Advertising administered by Ad Standards Canada . If you believe any of our content violates responsible gaming standards, you may file a complaint with Ad Standards at https://adstandards.ca/complaints/.
9. Contact for Responsible Gaming Concerns

10. Final Reminder

Affiliate
partners are for adults only. Play responsibly, set limits, and never gamble more than you can
afford to lose.
