Responsible Gaming
Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming
At Hunt's Hill Art, we are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. Gaming and online pokies should be enjoyed as entertainment only, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. We encourage all players to gamble responsibly and within their means.
Age Verification
Online pokies in Australia are strictly regulated and available only to individuals aged 18 years and over. By accessing our gaming content, you confirm that you are at least 18 years old or the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction. We do not permit access to anyone under the legal gambling age.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can develop gradually. If you recognise any of the following signs in yourself or someone you know, please seek help immediately:
- Spending more time and money on gambling than intended
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
- Hiding gambling activity or lying about the amount spent
- Neglecting family, work, or personal responsibilities due to gambling
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when not gambling
- Borrowing money or using credit to fund gambling
- Experiencing relationship conflicts due to gambling habits
- Unsuccessful attempts to cut down or stop gambling
- Using gambling to escape problems or relieve stress
- Experiencing financial difficulties as a result of gambling
Self-Help Tools
Most responsible gaming platforms provide tools to help you maintain control:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific timeframe
- Loss Limits: Establish a maximum loss amount you are willing to accept
- Reality Checks: Receive regular reminders of how long you have been playing
- Time-Out/Cool-Off Periods: Take a break from gambling for a set period
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from gaming platforms
We recommend using these tools to manage your gaming activity responsibly.
