At SilverSpruce Lotto, we believe that playing the lottery should always be a form of entertainment, never a way to make money. We are committed to providing a safe environment and helping our customers make informed decisions.

1. Our Core Principles

2. Tips for Safer Play

• Set a Budget: Decide how much you are willing to spend before you start. Stick to it.
• Set a Time Limit: Don't let gambling take over your free time.
• Understand the Odds: The chances of winning a jackpot are extremely low. Winning is never guaranteed.
• Never Chase Losses: Trying to win back lost money usually leads to greater losses.
• Balance Your Life: Ensure gambling is not interfering with your work, family, or other hobbies.

3. Signs of Problem Gambling

It is important to recognize if your gaming habits are becoming problematic. Ask yourself:

• Do you spend more money on tickets than you can afford?
• Do you lie to friends or family about how much you play?
• Do you feel anxious or stressed when you are not playing?
• Do you view the lottery as a way to pay off debts or solve financial problems?

If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, you may need to step back or seek help.

4. Tools We Offer

Although this is a demonstration site, a real responsible operator provides tools to help you manage your play:

• Self-Exclusion: A voluntary option to block access to your account for a specific period (from 6 months to permanent).
• Activity Statements: Easy access to your purchase history to track your spending.
