Gambling at Pelican Casino should always be treated as entertainment rather than a way to make money. The purpose of these policies is to set out the responsible gaming measures we provide, and to explain the steps players can take to keep play safe and controlled.
We encourage all customers to read these provisions carefully. If you have concerns about your gambling, please use the tools and support options described below or contact our support team through the site.
Our Commitment to Responsible Gambling
Pelican Casino is committed to promoting safe play and reducing harm associated with gambling. Our approach emphasises prevention, early intervention and clear, accessible tools so players can control their activity. We maintain internal procedures to identify patterns that may indicate problem gambling and to assist affected accounts.
We do not guarantee prevention of harm, but we aim to provide a consistent, user-focused environment that supports informed choices and safer play habits.
Recognising Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can present in many ways, including increased spending, neglecting responsibilities, or chasing losses. Signs can be subtle and may develop over time. Players, friends and family should remain alert to behavioural changes that suggest gambling is causing personal, financial or social problems.
If you notice worrying signs in your own behaviour or someone else’s, consider seeking help early to reduce potential harm.
Self-Assessment and Limits
Pelican Casino supports self-awareness and personal controls. We recommend regular self-assessment and encourage the use of limits to manage play.
- Deposit limits - set daily, weekly or monthly caps on the amount you can deposit.
- Loss limits - set maximum loss thresholds to avoid chasing losses beyond a comfortable level.
- Reality checks - periodic reminders of session length, time spent and recent losses or wins.
- Cooling-off periods - temporary breaks from play that suspend account access for a predefined short period.
- Self-exclusion - longer-term account suspension for individuals who need an extended break from gambling.
Responsible Gaming Tools
To help players maintain control, Pelican Casino provides a range of responsible gaming features. These are accessible from your account settings and are designed to be straightforward to use.
- Account limits - configurable deposit and loss settings that take effect immediately once set.
- Session reminders - optional pop-up alerts that notify you of elapsed time in a playing session.
- Self-assessment questionnaire - an online tool to help you reflect on your gambling behaviour.
- Cooling-off and self-exclusion options - mechanisms to pause or suspend account access for set periods.
- Transaction and activity history - clear summaries of deposits, bets and payouts to support responsible budgeting.
Support and Assistance
If gambling becomes difficult to control, we encourage you to seek professional help. Pelican Casino will assist by applying limits, enacting self-exclusion or providing information about external support services.
You can contact our support team at [email protected] for account-related assistance or to request responsible gaming measures.
Independent external support services include:
- Gambling Help Online - confidential information and counselling services available nationally.
- Australian Government - Gambling Support Services - information on local services and resources.
The National Gambling Helpline (1800 858 858) is a free and confidential support service for people affected by gambling. These organisations are independent external support services and are not partners or services operated by Pelican Casino.
Underage Gambling
Only individuals aged 18 or older may use the website. Pelican Casino does not permit underage gambling and applies age verification measures to prevent access by minors.
Parental Controls
Parents and guardians should use operating system and network-level parental controls to restrict access to gambling sites. We recommend multi-layered controls, including device restrictions and supervised accounts for households with minors.
Tips for Staying in Control
Practical steps can help keep gambling enjoyable and balanced. Consider the following suggestions:
- Set a strict budget for gambling and do not exceed it.
- Use deposit and loss limits to prevent impulse spending.
- Schedule short sessions and take regular breaks.
- Avoid gambling when stressed, tired or under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
- Keep track of time and money spent using session reminders and transaction history.
- Talk to someone you trust if you feel gambling is affecting your life.
Changes to This Policy
Pelican Casino may update responsible gaming practices to reflect changes in technology, regulation or industry standards. We will publish material changes and, where appropriate, notify registered customers through the account communication channels used on the site.
Players are encouraged to review these provisions periodically to remain informed about available tools and support options.
Pelican Casino recognises the importance of protecting personal information. This privacy policy explains what data we collect, how it is used and the choices available to users. We are committed to managing personal data transparently and securely.
Information We Collect
We collect information necessary to provide gaming services, process transactions and comply with legal obligations. This may include identity information, contact details, payment information, transaction history, device data and gameplay activity. We collect data directly from you and through automated processes when you use our services.
How We Use Information
Personal data is used to operate accounts, process deposits and withdrawals, deliver customer support, detect fraud, and improve the service. We may also use data for responsible gambling monitoring and to fulfil legal and regulatory requirements.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies to deliver, analyse and improve the site. These technologies help remember user preferences, enable secure logins and provide aggregated site usage metrics to improve the user experience.
Data Sharing
We share personal data with service providers who perform functions on our behalf, such as payment processors, identity verification and technical hosting. We may also disclose information when required by law or to protect legitimate interests such as fraud prevention.
Data Security
We maintain technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal data from unauthorised access, alteration or loss. While we strive to protect information, no system can be guaranteed completely secure; users should also safeguard their account credentials.
Data Retention
Personal data is retained only for as long as necessary to provide services, meet legal obligations and resolve disputes. Retention periods depend on the type of data and applicable legal requirements.
Your Rights
Depending on applicable law, users may have rights to access, correct or request deletion of personal data. Requests will be handled in accordance with applicable legal standards and verification requirements to protect privacy and prevent fraud.
Third-Party Services
Some features may rely on third-party services such as payment providers, identity checks or analytics. These services have their own privacy practices which may apply when you interact with them. We recommend reviewing those third-party privacy notices where applicable.
International Transfers
In order to deliver services, personal data may be transferred or processed in jurisdictions outside your home country. We employ safeguards to protect data when transfers occur and comply with legal requirements relevant to cross-border data flows.
Policy Updates
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Material changes will be communicated through the website and, where appropriate, direct account notices. Continued use of Pelican Casino after updates indicates acceptance of the revised policy.
