Individuals twenty-one (21) years of age or older are referred to herein as "Legally of Age" and any person not Legally of Age who registers an account, downloads or uses the Software or Services will contravene the terms of this Agreement and the laws of the State of New Jersey. It is a criminal offense to permit or enable a person who is not Legally of Age to participate in Internet real money wagering, and any person facilitating the use by another person not Legally of Age of the Software or the Services will be committing a criminal offense and will as a result be prohibited from using the Software and the Services. The Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to request evidence of proof of age at any time in order to confirm that persons not Legally of Age are not utilizing the Software or the Services. If proof of age is not provided as requested or if the Company suspects that a person registering an account and/or using the Software or the Services is not Legally of Age, the Company has the right to close a person's account and forbid them from using the Software or the Services. Any deposits made by a person who is not Legally of Age will be reported to the Division and may be subject to forfeiture or other action as directed by the Division pertaining to the Act and the Regulations. The Company has the right not to refund any bonuses or winning funds provided to or gained in violation of this Agreement.

Third-party verification services may be used to verify Your personal information, including, but not restricted to, a credit reference agency or other identification verification services. Throughout the performance of these checks, the third-party verification services may keep a record of Your information, with such checks potentially affecting Your credit report. The objective of this is to confirm Your age, identity, and physical address. We reserve the right, without assuming the responsibility, to confirm that You have not suspended Your Account or gameplay previously or self-imposed responsible gaming limits (the "Responsible Gaming Limits") with another one of the websites operated by the Company or another New Jersey casino, or any similar program provided by a private or governmental agency. We reserve the right at any time to verify Your information by requesting certain documents to enable verification of Your email address and the payment methods used. Such documents may include but are not limited to: (a) an identity card such as a valid passport or state-issued photo driver's license; (b) proof of address such as a utility bill or bank statement; and (c) proof of payment method. Said documents may be sent to Us through a secure/encrypted file-transfer function in the Website(s)'s Cashier, through another location on the Website(s), or via the main casino cage on Ocean Resort Casino’s gaming floor. We reserve the right, at the Company's sole discretion, to request notarized document copies, with the documents stamped and validated by a public notary. If You do not comply with the Company's request for documents or if the provision of said documents is not to the Company's satisfaction, the Company will block access or close Your Account, withholding any funds that remain and refusing to refund any bonuses or winning funds provided to or gained by You. Any deposit funds in such account shall be returned to You within seven (7) business days from the date of account termination, unless prohibited by the Act or Regulations. In the event of the documents failing the Company's internal security authentication processes (for example, if it is suspected that the documents have been altered or are in any way attempting to mislead or misrepresent), the Company will not be obliged to accept such documents as valid, nor be obliged to provide feedback or explanations as to the reasoning of the Company's findings or causes for documents being rejected. The Company is within its right to request additional information from You in its sole discretion or as may be required by law, and Your access to the Website(s), the Services, or the Software will be restricted until Your age, identity, and location have been authenticated to the sole satisfaction of the Company.
4.3 You authorize Your wireless carrier to use or disclose information about Your account and Your wireless device, if available, to PlayStar or its service provider for the duration of Your business relationship, solely to help them identify You or Your wireless device and to prevent fraud.

Such inquiries may also be performed on social media sites and through the utilization of third-party companies. The Company is not obliged to inform You of such investigations and reserves the right to decide at its sole discretion to suspend or terminate Your account, withholding all funds.
4.6 The configuration of Responsible Gaming Limits is the customer’s sole responsibility, giving You the right to set Responsible Gaming Limits on the Website(s), with regards to a deposit limit, a spend limit, and a time-based limit, and in order to temporarily or permanently suspend Your use of the Services on the Website(s) (for no less than seventy-two (72) hours) as specified on the Player Protection page. Should you wish to modify Your Responsible Gaming Limits once they have been set, in order for Us to comply with the Regulations, you are required to wait until the expiry of Your current limit before the new limit can take effect.
