Introduction
This Responsible Gaming Policy outlines the control tools, information, and resources available to registered AstroBet players.
This Policy is part of the AstroBet Terms and Conditions. All defined terms carry the same meaning as in our Terms and Conditions.
We may update this Policy at any time. Changes will be published on the platform and take immediate effect.

AstroBet Responsible Gaming Program
Our Responsible Gaming Program focuses on providing players with:
- Tools to make informed gaming decisions
- Resources to prevent problematic gaming behavior
The Program supports players throughout their journey, offering educational resources and control tools to help maintain healthy gaming habits. While we provide these tools and resources, we recognize that ultimately, gaming decisions rest with the individual player.

Control Tools – Available by contacting support through the "Contact" form:

- Permanent Account Closure
Privacy and Control Enforcement
AstroBet is committed to user privacy. All responsible gaming controls are enforced solely based on your account activity - we do not collect, store, or use any personally identifiable information. Our commitment to privacy means that while we provide robust responsible gaming tools, their implementation is tied exclusively to your account credentials rather than personal data. This allows us to maintain strong player protections while respecting your privacy.

Education Information on Responsible Gaming
Principles of Gaming
Randomness: Game outcomes are completely random. Results cannot be predicted and are independent of past or future outcomes.
Advantage: Casino-type games are designed with a slight advantage that favors the operator.
Common Misconceptions
- "I'm due for a win" – You cannot predict when you're going to win. All outcomes are random.
- "I always win with my lucky charm and pre-game ritual" – Although they might be fun, charms and rituals don't affect your chances of winning.
- "The longer I play, the more chance I'll win" – Time spent has no effect on your chances of winning.

- Remember that gaming is entertainment, not income
- Only play with money you can afford to lose
