Responsible Gambling

AI Sports Betting Prediction, trading as Sports Betting AI (“Sports Betting AI”, “we”, “us” or “our”), is committed to presenting sports-prediction information in a responsible manner.

Gambling should be treated as a form of paid entertainment that carries a real risk of financial loss. It should not be used to earn income, solve financial difficulties, recover previous losses or cope with stress.

We recognise that gambling can cause financial, emotional, physical, social and relationship harm. This can affect the person who gambles as well as partners, relatives, friends, colleagues and dependants.

Our aim is to make the limitations of predictions clear, avoid presenting uncertain outcomes as guaranteed and direct users to appropriate independent tools and support.

Sports Betting AI provides AI-generated sports predictions, estimated probabilities, statistical information and likely outcomes for general informational and entertainment purposes.

We are not a bookmaker, betting exchange, casino, gambling operator, gambling intermediary, payment provider or financial adviser.

We do not:

• accept, arrange, place, transmit or settle bets;
• hold gambling deposits or winnings;
• control a bookmaker account;
• set operator deposit or loss limits;
• provide operator time-outs or reality checks;
• enrol users in bookmaker self-exclusion schemes;
• carry out affordability or financial-vulnerability checks;
• monitor a user's complete gambling activity; or
• guarantee that a prediction or bet will succeed.

Any gambling transaction is entered into directly between you and the relevant third-party operator. That operator is responsible for its own account controls, safer-gambling tools, regulatory duties and customer support.

Gambling outcomes are uncertain. Even a carefully researched selection or a prediction with a comparatively high estimated probability can lose.

You should never:

• treat gambling as employment or a reliable income stream;
• use rent, mortgage, food or household money to gamble;
• gamble with money required for debts or essential bills;
• borrow money or use unaffordable credit to gamble;
• assume that previous wins will continue;
• believe that a losing sequence must soon reverse; or
• increase stakes in an attempt to recover losses.

No prediction, confidence score, rating, statistical trend or model output removes the possibility of losing your entire stake.

The following principles may help reduce risk, but no control can make gambling risk-free.

• Decide in advance how much money you can afford to lose and do not exceed that amount.
• Set a time limit before beginning and stop when the limit is reached.
• Keep gambling separate from essential household finances.
• Do not chase losses or increase stakes because you are behind.
• Take regular breaks and avoid long, continuous sessions.
• Balance gambling with work, relationships, exercise, sleep and other interests.
• Do not gamble while affected by alcohol, drugs, severe stress, anger, loneliness or low mood.
• Review your deposits, withdrawals, stakes, wins and losses regularly.
• Use limits, time-outs, reality checks and blocking tools offered by regulated operators and other providers.
• Stop and seek support as soon as gambling causes concern.

A budget or limit should be based on an amount you can lose without affecting your living costs, savings commitments, dependants or ability to repay debts.

5.1 Predictions are estimates

Our AI systems produce estimates based on available sports data, statistical relationships, model assumptions and automated analysis. A prediction is not a statement of fact.

5.2 Confidence is not certainty

A confidence label or estimated probability does not guarantee an outcome. For example, an outcome estimated to have a higher chance can still fail, and repeated use does not remove uncertainty.

5.3 Sport contains unpredictable events

Injuries, team selection, tactics, officiating, weather, playing conditions, data delays, unexpected events and random variation can materially affect results.

5.4 Odds include an operator margin

Bookmaker odds may reflect an operator margin and may not represent the true probability of an outcome. Odds can also change quickly.

5.5 Past performance is not a promise

Historical accuracy, winning selections, previous returns and model-performance statistics do not guarantee future results.

Gambling may be becoming harmful where one or more of the following behaviours or consequences occur:

• spending more money or time than intended;
• repeatedly breaking personal limits;
• increasing stakes to obtain the same excitement;
• chasing losses;
• borrowing, selling possessions or using credit to gamble;
• hiding gambling or being dishonest about losses;
• feeling anxious, irritable or restless when not gambling;
• using gambling to escape stress, sadness or other problems;
• neglecting sleep, health, work, study or responsibilities;
• losing interest in relationships or other activities;
• arguments or relationship difficulties caused by gambling;
• unpaid bills, debt or financial instability;
• repeated unsuccessful attempts to stop;
• feeling guilt, shame, hopelessness or panic; or
• thinking about gambling for much of the day.

Harm can exist even where the amounts involved appear small to another person. The impact on the individual and their circumstances matters.

Consider answering the following questions honestly:

• Am I worried about how much time or money I spend gambling?
• Do I gamble for longer or with more money than planned?
• Do I need larger stakes to feel the same level of excitement?
• Do I find it difficult to stop after losing?
• Have I tried and failed to reduce or stop gambling?
• Do I gamble to escape stress, anxiety, loneliness or low mood?
• Have I hidden gambling activity or losses from other people?
• Has gambling affected my finances or ability to pay bills?
• Has gambling affected my work, study, sleep or health?
• Has gambling harmed a relationship or caused arguments?
• Have I borrowed money, used credit or sold items to gamble?
• Do I feel restless, irritable or distressed when not gambling?
• Do I believe I may have a gambling problem?

Answering “yes” to any question is a reason to pause, review your gambling and consider speaking confidentially with an independent support service.

You do not need to wait until the situation becomes severe before seeking help.

If gambling is causing concern, practical immediate steps may include:

• stop gambling and do not attempt to recover losses;
• leave gambling websites and applications;
• withdraw available funds from operator accounts where appropriate;
• activate operator time-outs or self-exclusion;
• register with a multi-operator self-exclusion scheme;
• install gambling-blocking software;
• ask your bank about gambling-payment blocks;
• remove saved payment methods;
• unsubscribe from gambling marketing;
• tell a trusted person what is happening;
• contact the National Gambling Helpline; and
• seek debt, mental-health or medical support where needed.

When urges are strong, creating distance between yourself and money, devices and gambling accounts can be more effective than relying on willpower alone.

Many licensed gambling operators provide a time-out or short-break feature. This can restrict gambling access for a selected period.

The periods and conditions vary by operator. Once activated, a time-out may be difficult or impossible to reverse before it expires.

A short break may be suitable where you want time to reconsider your behaviour. If you believe gambling is harmful or you are unable to control it, longer self-exclusion and professional support may be more appropriate.

Sports Betting AI does not operate betting accounts and cannot activate a bookmaker time-out for you.

Regulated gambling operators may provide controls such as deposit limits, loss limits, spend limits or other financial restrictions.

Where available, you should set limits before gambling rather than after losing money. A limit should reflect what you can afford to lose, not what you hope to win.

You should avoid:

• raising a limit to chase a loss;
• using withdrawals as justification for new deposits;
• setting separate limits across many operators to bypass a budget;
• using credit or borrowed money;
• moving money intended for essential expenses; or
• opening additional accounts after reaching a limit.

Review your bank statements and operator histories using actual deposits, withdrawals, stakes and returns. Do not rely on memory or focus only on winning transactions.

Sports Betting AI cannot set or enforce financial limits on a third-party gambling account.

Some operators provide reality checks, session reminders, transaction histories, net-deposit summaries or win-and-loss information.

These tools may help you:

• see how long a session has lasted;
• review how frequently you gamble;
• compare deposits with withdrawals;
• understand total stakes and returns;
• identify changes in behaviour; and
• decide whether to take a break or stop.

A dashboard or account history is useful only if you review it honestly and act on concerning patterns.

Sports Betting AI may show your use of our own prediction features where such functionality exists, but this cannot provide a complete record of gambling conducted with third-party operators.

Self-exclusion is a formal tool for people who want support to stop gambling for a defined period.

You may be able to self-exclude directly from an individual operator or through a multi-operator scheme. You should provide accurate details and follow the scheme's instructions to make the exclusion as effective as possible.

After self-excluding, consider also:

• removing gambling applications and bookmarks;
• unfollowing gambling-related social-media accounts;
• blocking gambling marketing;
• installing blocking software;
• activating a bank gambling block;
• asking trusted people for support; and
• contacting a treatment or support service.

Sports Betting AI is not a gambling operator and cannot enrol you in an operator self-exclusion scheme. You must contact the relevant operator or scheme directly.

13.1 GAMSTOP Online

GAMSTOP Online is a free service designed to block access to online gambling accounts with companies licensed in Great Britain.

Available exclusion periods and scheme conditions are determined by GAMSTOP and may change. Review the current information and register directly at gamstop.co.uk.

13.2 Land-based gambling

Separate self-exclusion arrangements may apply to betting shops, casinos, bingo premises, arcades and other land-based gambling venues.

The UK Gambling Commission provides current information about national and multi-operator self-exclusion options at gamblingcommission.gov.uk.

13.3 Use more than one safeguard

An online scheme may not cover every form of gambling, every operator or every jurisdiction. Where relevant, combine self-exclusion with blocking software, bank controls and direct exclusions from individual operators.

Gambling-blocking software can help restrict access to gambling websites and applications on computers, phones and tablets.

These tools differ in price, coverage, compatibility and effectiveness. Before using one, check:

• which devices and operating systems it supports;
• whether it covers websites and applications;
• how updates and new gambling domains are handled;
• whether removal can be delayed or password-protected;
• what information the provider collects;
• whether another trusted person can manage settings; and
• the provider's charges and cancellation terms.

Blocking software should be treated as one part of a wider plan, not as a guarantee that gambling access is impossible.

Some banks and payment providers allow customers to block gambling transactions or introduce a delay before a block can be removed.

Ask your bank what controls are available and what types of transaction they cover.

Additional financial safeguards may include:

• removing stored cards from gambling accounts;
• reducing credit limits where appropriate;
• avoiding access to cash or credit during high-risk periods;
• using separate accounts for essential household expenses;
• asking a trusted person to support budgeting; and
• obtaining independent debt advice.

A bank block may not cover every transaction type, payment method or unlicensed operator. Confirm the scope directly with your bank.

The Sports Betting AI Service is intended only for people aged 18 or over.

We do not accept bets or hold gambling accounts. However, sports-prediction and betting-related content may still be unsuitable for children.

Parents, guardians and other responsible adults should consider:

• using device and browser parental controls;
• restricting access to gambling and betting-related websites;
• protecting payment cards, passwords and account credentials;
• not leaving an authenticated device unattended;
• reviewing application downloads and in-app purchases;
• discussing gambling odds, risk and advertising critically;
• checking bank and payment statements; and
• seeking specialist support where a young person is affected.

If you believe a person under 18 is accessing an account or age-restricted feature on our Service, contact us

Gambling harm can affect partners, relatives, friends, colleagues and dependants.

Possible warning signs include:

• unexplained financial difficulties or missing money;
• borrowing or selling possessions;
• secretive use of devices or gambling accounts;
• lying about time, money or whereabouts;
• mood changes, anxiety or irritability;
• withdrawal from relationships and activities;
• neglect of work, study or family responsibilities;
• repeated requests for financial help; or
• conflict linked to gambling.

Choose a calm time to raise your concerns. Use specific examples, listen without judgment and encourage professional support.

Avoid lending money to fund gambling or paying debts without a wider safeguarding plan. Protect your own finances, passwords, credit and wellbeing.

Independent support services can also advise people affected by someone else's gambling.

Gambling harm can be associated with severe anxiety, depression, relationship breakdown, financial crisis and thoughts of self-harm.

If you or another person is in immediate danger, has attempted self-harm or may act on suicidal thoughts, call emergency services on 999 or go to the nearest Accident and Emergency department.

For urgent medical advice in the United Kingdom where the situation is not an immediate life-threatening emergency, use NHS services appropriate to your location.

You can also review NHS information about gambling-related harm and treatment at nhs.uk.

Sports Betting AI is not an emergency, medical, counselling or crisis service.

External organisations are independent from Sports Betting AI. Their services, eligibility criteria, contact details and availability may change. Check their current information directly.

We aim to present AI-generated outputs in a way that reflects uncertainty and does not imply guaranteed success.

Our approach may include:

• describing outputs as predictions or likely outcomes;
• using probability or confidence language rather than certainty;
• displaying warnings that results can differ from predictions;
• avoiding claims that gambling is risk-free;
• avoiding promises of profit or guaranteed returns;
• explaining that past results do not ensure future performance;
• linking to responsible-gambling information; and
• reviewing content that may create a misleading impression.

Model-generated language may occasionally be inaccurate, incomplete or poorly phrased. You should not interpret automated wording as a personal instruction to gamble.

Where our Service provides an account, newsletter or personalised feature, you may contact us to request available controls relating to our own Service.

Depending on the feature, this may include:

• unsubscribing from marketing emails;
• closing a Sports Betting AI account;
• changing notification preferences;
• requesting deletion where applicable; or
• asking how to reduce exposure to our content.

Closing or restricting a Sports Betting AI account does not self-exclude you from bookmakers or other gambling services. Separate action must be taken with those operators or through an appropriate self-exclusion scheme.

Requests concerning our Service can be sent to contact us.

The Service may contain advertisements or affiliate links to third-party gambling operators and other commercial partners.

We may receive compensation where a user selects a link, registers with a partner or completes another qualifying action.

Commercial compensation does not make a prediction certain and does not remove the need to assess whether gambling is lawful, affordable or appropriate for you.

Before using a third-party operator, verify that it is properly licensed for your location, review its terms and safer-gambling tools, and decide whether you should gamble at all.

You may be able to control personalised advertising through our cookie settings, browser settings and relevant advertising platforms.

Gambling laws, age limits, support services and self-exclusion arrangements differ between countries and territories.

The UK organisations listed on this page may not cover users outside Great Britain. International visitors should contact a qualified local support service, healthcare provider, regulator or self-exclusion scheme.

You are responsible for understanding the laws that apply where you live and where you are physically located.

The availability of our Website in a territory does not mean that gambling or access to a particular operator is lawful there.

We may update this Responsible Gambling page to reflect changes to our Service, available support resources, safer-gambling practices, legal requirements or third-party services.

The effective date at the top of the page identifies the current version.

External organisations may change their telephone numbers, websites, opening hours, eligibility requirements or services independently of us. Verify current information directly with the relevant organisation.
