Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
At Tempted by Tiarna, we believe that online gaming should be fun, exciting, and enjoyed as entertainment only. Gambling is never a reliable way to earn money or solve financial problems. Please play within your means and only with money you can afford to lose.
Age Verification
Online gambling in Australia is only available to individuals who are 18 years of age or older (or the legal age in your jurisdiction). We are committed to responsible gaming and strictly enforce age verification on all platforms we promote.
If you are under the legal gambling age, please do not attempt to access gaming sites. Parents and guardians are encouraged to use parental controls to restrict access to gambling websites.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Do you recognize any of these warning signs in yourself or someone you know?
- Chasing Losses: Returning to gamble to recover money you've lost
- Hiding Your Gambling: Keeping your gambling secret from family or friends
- Loss of Control: Gambling longer or with more money than intended
- Neglecting Responsibilities: Missing work, school, or family obligations due to gambling
- Borrowing Money: Taking loans or using credit to fund gambling
- Mood Changes: Becoming irritable, anxious, or depressed when not gambling

If you recognize several of these signs, it may be time to seek professional help.
Self-Help Tools & Safer Gambling Features
Most reputable online gaming platforms offer tools to help you stay in control:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Establish a cap on how much you're willing to lose in a session
- Session Time Limits: Set automatic disconnection after a predetermined period
- Reality Checks: Receive periodic reminders about how long and how much you've been gambling
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from accessing gambling sites
- Account Restrictions: Reduce betting limits or disable certain features
We encourage you to use these tools proactively as part of your responsible gaming strategy.
