Social Responsibility Commitment
Although, for the majority of the population, online gaming is a fun and recreational pastime, we at Hailmary.com realize, that for some, it can develop into a serious problem that can have adverse affects on their lives and the lives of those around them.
Our mission is to provide an accessible, safe, and easy to use service to our members all over the globe; however, as with all online gaming sites, this service can potentially be abused when it becomes a compulsive and an uncontrollable problem. We take providing our gaming service and our social responsibility to our members very seriously, and this is how we promote responsible gaming:
Age Limits:
Online gaming, like any form of adult entertainment, is illegal for anyone under the age of 18 to play, and this rule applies to Hailmary.com. We reserve the right to request verification documents from all of our members, to prove they are 18 years of age or older and we may deactivate any account until such proof is received.
The winnings of anyone under the age of 18 found to be gaming on Hailmary.com will be forfeited.
To help prevent underage access at Hailmary.com we recommend the Internet's most trusted parental control filtering sites:
www.netnanny.com
www.cybersitter.com
www.cyberpatrol.com
www.contentwatch.com
Personal Limits:
We have the ability and control to limit the betting amounts of any player at their request in the event that they feel they are developing an unmanaged gaming problem. We can block a member’s access to the site if they have a gaming problem. If you think you have a problem we urge you to take this simple self-assessment test. This could provide the warning you need to help you decide to get help for yourself, and to help those around you.
Getting Help:
24/7 help is not far away if you believe you have a gaming problem. This is provided by the following people/services that understand these issues: The Nevada Council on Problem Gambling has a 24-hour, toll-free hot-line at 1-800-522-4700, or you may visit the Gamblers Anonymous website, which is full of useful information and contact details. This is a non-profit organization that is in no way affiliated with Hailmary.com.
Working Together:
Hailmary.com works closely with the Antiguan government and Financial Services Regulatory Commission (FSRC) to ensure that we fulfill and exceed all international standards of best practice in regards to responsible gaming.
In support of this, the Antiguan Online Gaming Association, in conjunction with the FSRC, has established a ‘Gaming Addiction Research and Education Fund’ to help educate the public on the risks associated with gaming, increase social awareness, particularly with minors, and provide resources for the treatment of problem gambling.
Hailmary.com is in agreement with both the AOGA and FSRC on the importance of these measures.
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions about these policies or our stance on responsible gaming.
