Stan James takes Responsible Gaming seriously. There is a responsibility on Stan James as a provider of gambling services to be aware of the social consequences of gambling. We want all of our customers to gamble responsibly and within their means and to enjoy the entertainment experience across all our products and channels. Therefore we will endeavour to put in place appropriate measures to protect customers and promote a responsible gambling culture.
The vast majority of people do gamble responsibly, experiencing both the thrill of victory and the disappointment of a defeat. We acknowledge that there is a responsibility on Stan James as a service provider to ensure that the pastime of gambling does not become problem gambling. If we become aware of any customer gambling experiencing problem gambling we will close that customer's account.

Access Controls
We are affiliated with the Internet Content Rating Association (ICRA) which allows our website to be recognised as a Gambling site and as such filtered by anyone who chooses to use the ICRA filtering system to control access to gambling sites.
Deposit Limits
At any time you may apply deposit limits on your account on the website or via our customer service department. Our system will automatically prevent any deposit above the limit which has been set.

Staff Training
All of our front-line staff undertake training regarding our Responsible Gaming Policy. Customer service staff are trained to assist customers that have requested self exclusion. All new employees trained on the above policies as part of their induction to the company. The latest developments on Responsible Gaming practices are detailed frequently in the company�s internal communications.
Evaluation
We re-assess and evaluate our Responsible Gaming Policy in the light of new research and best practice in other jurisdictions which we have access to. We monitor customer responses to the measures we have implemented and are active members of the Remote Gambling Association. Through the RGA we share experiences of our policies and those of other affiliated members of the organisation with the goal of improving these policies industry-wide.
Self-Help and Awareness Information
Our Responsible Gambling Policy lists a number of guidelines to remind users of the differences between recreational gambling and problem gambling. There is also a link to a self-assessment test on the GamCare website where users can determine if their gambling has become a problem.
Third Party Help
Help is available through hard-working confidential organisations for those who believe they may have a problem with gambling, or know someone who does.
We fully support the efforts of these groups and urge you to seek their help and advice if you need it. An anonymous online 'self-assessment' form can be used at www.gamcare.org.uk to help you determine if you have a potential gambling problem.
