Responsible Gaming

Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming

At dpenergy.info, we are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. Gambling should be enjoyed as entertainment only, never as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Please gamble responsibly and within your means.

Age Verification

Online gambling in Canada is restricted to individuals who are 18 years of age or older (or the applicable legal age in your province). By accessing our website, you confirm that you meet the legal age requirement in your jurisdiction. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age at any time.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually. If you recognize any of the following signs in your own behaviour or that of someone you know, please seek help immediately:

• Gambling with money you cannot afford to lose
• Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
• Lying to friends or family about your gambling activities or losses
• Spending increasing amounts of time and money on gambling
• Neglecting work, school, or family responsibilities due to gambling
• Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when unable to gamble
• Using gambling as an escape from problems or negative emotions
• Borrowing money or going into debt to finance gambling
• Unsuccessful attempts to reduce or stop gambling
• Friends or family expressing concern about your gambling

Self-Help Tools

Most responsible gaming platforms offer tools to help you maintain control of your gambling. These may include:

• Deposit Limits: Set daily, weekly, or monthly limits on the amount you can deposit
• Loss Limits: Set maximum amounts you are willing to lose during a specific period
• Wagering Limits: Control the size of individual bets
• Reality Checks: Receive periodic reminders about your time spent gambling
• Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from gambling platforms
• Time Limits: Set time restrictions for your gaming sessions

We encourage you to use these tools proactively as part of your responsible gaming strategy.
