Responsible Gaming

Introduction

At BC Game, we believe that gaming should be enjoyed as entertainment only. Gambling is never a reliable way to earn money or solve financial problems. It should be treated as a recreational activity with costs you can afford to lose, much like going to a movie or sporting event.

We are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices and supporting players who may be experiencing difficulties. Please read the information below and use the tools available to maintain control of your gaming experience.

Age Verification

BC Game is only available to individuals who are 18 years of age or older, or the legal age of majority in their jurisdiction in India.

By accessing our platform, you confirm that you meet the minimum age requirement. We reserve the right to verify age at any time and may request official identification documents.

If you are under the legal age, please do not use our services.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

It's important to recognize when gaming may be becoming problematic. Consider if any of the following apply to you:

• Spending more time or money on gaming than intended
• Chasing losses by continuing to play in hopes of winning back money
• Hiding gaming activity or the amount wagered from friends and family
• Feeling anxious or irritable when unable to play
• Using gaming as a way to escape problems, stress, or negative emotions
• Borrowing money to fund gaming activity
• Neglecting work, education, or family responsibilities due to gaming
• Experiencing financial difficulties or debt related to gaming
• Failed attempts to reduce or control gaming behavior
• Lying about the extent of gaming involvement

If you recognize any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, help is available.
