Responsible Gaming
Videoslots.com sees online casino games as a positive form of entertainment for adults. Most players share this opinion, but there is a small percentage that lets gambling become a too big part of their lives. If you feel that your gambling is a problem, Videoslots.com can help you to gamble responsibly. We can adjust how much money you can deposit, lose or wager according to your request. You also have the option to take a break or self-exclude should you require it. Contact us and we will take necessary action that fits you the best.

Protection of Minors
Underage gambling is illegal if you are younger than 18 years of age, or any higher minimum age as required by the law of the jurisdiction applicable to you. The company does not entertain players that are not of legal age and does not pay out wins to such players.
With the Internet so readily accessible in homes around the world, responsible online gaming relies heavily on responsible parenting.

Tips for Parents:
- Do not leave your computer unattended when your casino software is running.
- Password-protect your casino program.
- Do not allow persons under 18 to participate in any gambling activity.
- Keep your casino account number and payment card(s) out of reach of children.
- Do not save passwords onto your computer. Write them down instead.
- Limit the amount of time your children spend online and make use of software to prevent your children from accessing inappropriate material.
