Responsible Gaming
Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming
At Food Finder YYC, we believe that gambling should be enjoyed as entertainment only, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. We are committed to promoting safe and responsible gaming practices for all our players in Canada.
Age Verification
Online gambling in Canada is restricted to individuals who are 18 years of age or older (or the legal age in your province). By accessing our site, you confirm that you meet the legal age requirement in your jurisdiction. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age at any time.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you recognize any of the following signs in yourself or someone you know, it may indicate a gambling problem:
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
- Spending more time and money on gambling than intended
- Hiding gambling activity or lying about the amount spent
- Neglecting family, work, school, or other important responsibilities
- Borrowing money to gamble or pay gambling debts
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when not gambling
- Failed attempts to reduce or stop gambling
- Using gambling to escape problems or negative emotions
- Risking significant relationships, education, or career opportunities
- Experiencing financial difficulties due to gambling
Self-Help Tools
We provide several tools to help you maintain control of your gambling:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit in a specific time period (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you are willing to lose
- Reality Checks: Receive periodic reminders during your gaming session about how long you've been playing and how much you've spent
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently block your account from accessing gambling services
- Time Limits: Set session duration limits to encourage breaks
These tools are available in your account settings. We encourage you to use them to stay in control.
