Responsible Gaming Policy
Our commitment to safety, integrity, and healthy play habits.
1. Our Philosophy
At Canada Numbers Room, we believe that lottery games should be played for fun and entertainment, not as a way to make money or solve financial problems. We are dedicated to providing a safe environment for all our users. Responsible gaming is not just a policy requirement for us; it is a core value of our service.
We actively encourage all players to understand the odds, the risks, and the nature of games of chance before participating.
2. Protection of Minors (18+)
Lottery gaming in Canada is strictly restricted to adults. It is illegal for anyone under the age of 18 (or 19, depending on the specific province) to open an account or play on our platform.
- We perform electronic verification checks to validate the age and identity of our users.
- We reserve the right to ask for proof of age from any customer and suspend accounts until necessary verification is received.
- We advise parents to install filtering software on their computers to block minors from accessing gambling sites.
3. Tips for Safe Play
To ensure that your lottery participation remains a fun hobby, we recommend following these guidelines:
Set a Budget
Decide beforehand how much money you are willing to spend. Never spend money that is set aside for daily expenses like rent, bills, or food.
Manage Time
Set a time limit for your sessions. Frequent breaks help you keep a clear perspective on your activity.
Know the Odds
Understand that the outcome of a lottery draw is purely random. Previous results do not influence future outcomes.
4. Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can affect anyone. It is important to recognize the warning signs early. Ask yourself the following questions:
- Do you spend more time or money on gambling than you intended?
- Do you borrow money or sell possessions to gamble?
- Do you feel anxious, irritable, or depressed when you are not playing?
- Do you lie to family and friends about the extent of your gambling?
- Do you chase losses by trying to win back money you have lost?
If you answered "yes" to some of these questions, you may be at risk.
5. Tools & Account Limits
To assist you, Canada Numbers Room offers several tools to help manage your activity:
Deposit Limits: You can set daily, weekly, or monthly limits on the amount you deposit
into your account.
Self-Exclusion: If you feel you need a break, you can request a temporary or permanent
self-exclusion from our services. During this period, you will not be able to access your account or
place ticket requests.
