Terms of Use

Welcome to gamblingproblem.net. These terms explain the basis on which we offer the information on this site. By using the site, you agree to them. Please read them alongside our privacy policy.

Information, not medical advice

Everything on this site is provided for general educational and informational purposes only. It is not medical, clinical, legal, or financial advice, and it is not a substitute for professional diagnosis, treatment, or care from a qualified professional. Our self-assessment is an educational screening tool, not a diagnosis — only a qualified professional can diagnose or treat gambling disorder. Always seek the advice of a suitable professional for your own situation.

This is not an emergency service

gamblingproblem.net cannot provide urgent or crisis help and does not monitor messages in real time. If you or someone else is in immediate danger, call 911. If you are having thoughts of suicide, call or text 988, the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. For confidential support with gambling, call or text 1-800-GAMBLER, available 24/7.

Independence

We are an independent information resource. We are not affiliated with any gambling operator, casino, or betting company, and we accept no gambling advertising or referral income. We are also not the operator of the helplines, treatment locators, or support organizations we link to; those are run by separate bodies.

Accuracy and availability

We work hard to keep our information accurate, current, and grounded in reputable sources, and we review our pages periodically. Even so, we make no warranty that the content is complete, error-free, or up to date at every moment, and details such as phone numbers, programs, and third-party services can change. Please verify important details — especially contact numbers and treatment options — directly with the relevant service. We may change, update, or remove content at any time, and we do not guarantee that the site will always be available.

External links

This site links to third-party websites and services for your convenience. We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, or practices of those external sites, and a link does not imply our endorsement of everything they contain.

Intellectual property

The content on this site is provided for your personal, non-commercial use. You are welcome to read, share, and refer others to our pages. You may not copy, republish, or redistribute substantial portions of the content for commercial purposes without our permission.

Limitation of liability

You use this site and act on its information at your own discretion and risk. To the fullest extent permitted by law, gamblingproblem.net is not liable for any loss or harm arising from the use of, or reliance on, the information provided here. Nothing in these terms limits any liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.

We may update these terms from time to time. When we do, we will revise the date shown below. Continuing to use the site means you accept the current version.
