Readers in Great Britain come to oddscompassuk.com for an account of how online casinos operate, whether they carry a British licence or sit offshore. Who stands behind the publication, the way to reach it, and the legal setting in which the writing is done are set out on this page.
Copyright
Protection for the texts, tables and graphics published here comes from the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988. Anything beyond fair dealing requires the editors' consent in writing beforehand.
Publisher
Name, legal form, registered address and e-mail address for getting in touch directly can be found at oddscompassuk.com. Regulation 6 of the Electronic Commerce (EC Directive) Regulations 2002 obliges a service provider to supply these so that it can be identified and approached, and the site complies with that duty.
The legal frame for online casinos in Great Britain
The Gambling Act 2005 governs gambling in Great Britain, with the Gambling Commission as supervisor. Wherever an operator is based, a Commission licence is needed to serve customers in Great Britain, and the Commission's public register shows who holds one. As a rule, a casino not on GamStop is a casino without that licence: the British system's protections, the GamStop exclusion among them, stop short of it. Adults only, from the age of 18.
What the site is for
Editorial information about online casinos is what oddscompassuk.com provides. No games are run here, no player accounts are held, no money is accepted, and nothing is brokered between readers and operators. No win is promised and no path around self-exclusion is offered.
Responsibility for links
Outside pages are beyond the site's control, and their owners alone are answerable for what they publish. Reported content that breaks the law is taken down.
Responsibility for content
Care goes into every article, and articles are rechecked at intervals. Bonus conditions, limits and terms shift constantly, so what the operator currently states is what governs. For any decision made in reliance on this content, oddscompassuk.com takes no responsibility.
Help with gambling harm
Harm is a real risk of gambling. Signs of excessive gambling, in oneself or in someone close, can be raised with GamCare and the National Gambling Helpline, with GambleAware, or with GamStop, the free service barring a person from online gambling operators licensed in Great Britain. Limits and other safer gambling tools are also required of licensed operators.
