Golvat Responsible Gaming – Informed & Safe Play

What Is Responsible Gaming

Responsible gaming means participating in gaming in a way that does not harm your financial, mental, or social well-being. It is not just a personal commitment — it is also a responsibility to your family and community.

Promoting responsible gaming is at the heart of what we do at Golvat. We believe every player deserves to enjoy gaming, but only within controlled and healthy boundaries. That's why we offer a range of tools and support to help you play safely.

Gaming is entertainment, not a source of income. If you feel gaming is having a negative impact on your life, seek help immediately.

Recognize the Warning Signs

The following signs may indicate that gaming is becoming a problem for you:

• Being unable to control time spent gaming or consistently exceeding time limits.
• Continuing to gamble despite financial difficulties and placing increasingly larger bets.
• Neglecting work, school, or family responsibilities in favor of gaming.
• Trying to stop gaming but failing, or making repeated unsuccessful attempts.
• Feeling restless, irritable, or depressed when not gaming.
• Withdrawing from family and friends.
• Continuing to game despite negative consequences and lying about the problem.

If you notice these signs, your gaming habits may have become problematic. Seek professional help right away.

Golvat's Control Tools

Golvat provides a range of tools to help you manage your gaming. Use them to set limits on your play and spending:

• Deposit Limit: Set how much you can deposit daily, weekly, or monthly.
• Loss Limit: Set a maximum loss limit, and your account will be automatically locked if that limit is reached.
• Session Time Limit: Set a time limit for your gaming sessions and get notified when your time is up.
• Self-Exclusion: If you feel your gaming is getting out of hand, you can exclude yourself from the platform for a set period of time.
• Reality Check Messages: Get reminders to take regular breaks and to keep track of how long you have been playing.
• Limit Reduction: You can reduce your deposit or loss limits at any time, but increasing them is not immediate and may involve a waiting period.

Self-Exclusion Options

If you feel your gaming has become a problem, self-exclusion is a powerful tool. It prevents you from accessing your account.

• Temporary Exclusion: Self-exclude for anywhere from 6 hours to 6 months.
• Permanent Exclusion: Permanently close your account. This decision is very difficult to reverse.
• Self-Exclusion on Other Platforms: Register for self-exclusion across multiple platforms through NCPG (National Council on Problem Gambling) or a similar organization.

Support Organizations & Resources

If you or someone you care about is dealing with problematic gaming, there are many ways to get help. These services are free and confidential:

• Golvat Customer Support: Reach out to our team at any time for gaming-related support.
• National Gaming Helpline: There are various charities and NGOs in Bangladesh that provide support for problematic gaming.

Advice for Family and Friends

If you know someone who is struggling with problematic gaming, here are some tips:

• Listen without judgment and offer your support.
• Encourage them to seek help and try to connect them with professional services.
• Do not provide financial assistance or facilitate gambling of any kind.
• Their choices and responsibilities are their own — you cannot resolve this for them.
• Maintain your own boundaries and take care of your mental health as well.
