ADMINISTRATION AND ENFORCEMENT > List of persons self excluded from gaming activities.
Short Summary
This legal document pertains to the establishment of a list of persons who voluntarily exclude themselves from gaming activities, including interactive gaming, at licensed facilities. Any person who acknowledges being a problem gambler can request placement on this list. During the period of voluntary exclusion, the person is not allowed to collect any winnings or recover any losses resulting from any gaming activity at licensed facilities. The regulations established by the board provide procedures for placements on and removals from the list of self-excluded persons. Licensed gaming entities are required to deny self-excluded persons access to interactive gaming, remove them from targeted mailings or other forms of advertising or promotions, and deny them access to complimentaries, check cashing privileges, club programs, and other similar benefits. The liability of licensed gaming entities or their employees is limited, and they cannot be held liable for any harm, monetary or otherwise, that may arise from their failure to withhold or restore gaming privileges to a self-excluded person. The board’s list of self-excluded persons is not open to public inspection, but licensed gaming entities can disclose the identity of self-excluded persons to affiliated gaming entities for the purpose of responsible gaming program administration.
