RESPONSIBLE PLAY POLICY
Supporting Safe and Fun Social Gaming | Great Britain (GB) Standards
At COMPAR OF LIFE, we believe that social casino gaming should be an enjoyable, fun, and risk-free activity. Although our games are strictly free to play and contain no real money mechanics, we are dedicated to promoting a culture of responsible play. We recognize that simulated gaming behaviors can mirror real gambling habits, and we want to help our players maintain a healthy balance. We provide resources, guidance, and tools to ensure that your experience on our Platform remains safe and entertaining.
1. UNDERSTANDING SOCIAL CASINO GAMING
Social casino gaming refers to games that look and behave like traditional casino games but do not offer real money payouts or accept real money deposits.
- Our games are operated entirely using virtual currency with no monetary value.
- Because there is no financial risk, players may sometimes spend more time than planned playing.
- It is important to remember that success in social gaming does not indicate or guarantee success at real-money gambling. They are separate experiences.
2. KEY RESPONSIBILITY GUIDELINES
To keep your social gaming experience positive and balanced, we recommend following these core rules:
- Play for Fun: Social slots are designed for amusement, visual storytelling, and relaxation. They are not a task or a source of stress.
- Monitor Your Time: Keep track of the hours you spend online. Set a timer if necessary to remind yourself to take a break.
- Prioritize Real Life: Ensure that your digital gameplay does not interfere with your work, study, family, or social obligations.
- Avoid Chasing Free Credits: If your free credits run out, treat it as a natural end to your session. Take a break and return when credits reload.
- Never Play Under Stress: Avoid playing when you are feeling anxious, depressed, or under the influence of substances. Social gaming should be enjoyed with a clear and relaxed mind.
3. SELF-TEST QUESTIONNAIRE
If you are concerned that your social gaming is becoming unhealthy, ask yourself the following questions:
- Do you skip work, school, or family gatherings to play social casino games?
- Have you lied or hidden the amount of time you spend playing slots?
- Do you feel irritable, anxious, or restless when you are not playing?
- Do you find it difficult to stop playing even after you have spent hours on the site?
- Does playing social slots serve as an escape from real-world problems or stress?
4. SELF-EXCLUSION AND PLATFORM TOOLS
We respect your choice to control your gaming. If you feel you need a break, we offer several self-regulation tools:
- Take-A-Break (Cooling-off Period): You can request a temporary pause on your access to our Platform. Pause durations are available for 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days.
- Self-Exclusion: You can choose to exclude yourself from our Platform permanently or for a long period (e.g., 6 months, 1 year). During this time, we will block your IP address from loading the game interfaces.
5. HELP AND SUPPORT ORGANISATIONS
If you or someone you know is struggling with gaming behaviors or real money gambling addiction, we strongly encourage reaching out to professional support organizations in Great Britain:

6. STRICT UNDERAGE PROTECTION
We are fully committed to protecting minors. Our Platform has a zero-tolerance policy towards underage access.
- We enforce age-gate screens requiring users to verify they are 18+ before entry.
- We do not design our marketing materials, games, or site layout to appeal to children.
- We advise parents to install filtering software (such as Net Nanny, CyberPatrol, or Qustodio) on shared home computers to prevent minors from accessing gaming Platforms.
