Enforcements

Learn more about our approach to enforcement, including potential consequences for violating these rules or attempting to circumvent enforcement.

Our Approach to enforcement –

Our enforcement philosophy

Playnbrag is reflective of real conversations happening in the world and that sometimes includes perspectives that may be offensive, controversial, and/or bigoted to others. While we welcome everyone to express themselves on our service, we will not tolerate behaviour that harasses, threatens, or uses fear to silence the voices of others.

We have the Playnbrag Rules in place to help ensure everyone feels safe expressing their beliefs and we strive to enforce them with uniform consistency.

We empower people to understand different sides of an issue and encourage dissenting opinions and viewpoints to be discussed openly. This approach allows many forms of speech to exist on our platform and, in particular, promotes counterspeech: speech that presents facts to correct misstatements or misperceptions, points out hypocrisy or contradictions, warns of offline or online consequences, denounces hateful or dangerous speech, or helps change minds and disarm.

Thus, context matters When determining whether to take enforcement action, we may consider a number of factors, including (but not limited to) whether:

Is the behaviour directed at an individual or group of people?

To strike a balance between allowing different opinions to be expressed on the platform, and protecting our users, we enforce policies when someone reports abusive behavior that targets a specific person or group of people. This targeting can happen in a number of ways (for example, @mentions, tagging a photo, mentioning them by name, and more).

Has the report been filed by the target of the potential abuse or a bystander?

Some Posts may seem to be abusive when viewed in isolation, but may not be when viewed in the context of a larger conversation or historical relationship between people on the platform. For example, friendly banter between friends could appear offensive to bystanders, and certain remarks that are acceptable in one culture or country may not be acceptable in another. To help prevent our teams from making a mistake and removing consensual interactions, in certain scenarios we require a report from the actual target (or their authorized representative) prior to taking any enforcement action.

Does the user have a history of violating our policies?

We start from a position of assuming that people do not intend to violate our Rules. Unless a violation is so egregious that we must immediately suspend an account, we first try to educate people about our Rules and give them a chance to correct their behaviour. We may or may not show the violator the offending Post(s) or Comment(s) – and depending on the severity of the case, explain which Rule was broken. If someone repeatedly violates our Rules then our enforcement actions become stronger. This includes taking additional actions like verifying account ownership and/or temporarily, or permanently disabling them from posting on the Service again. If someone continues to violate Rules beyond that point then their account may be permanently suspended.

What is the severity of the violation?

Certain types of behaviour may pose serious safety and security risks and/or result in physical, emotional, and financial hardship for the people involved. These egregious violations of the Playnbrag Rules — such as posting violent threats, non-consensual intimate media, or content that sexually exploits children — result in the immediate and permanent suspension of an account. Other violations could lead to a range of different steps, like temporarily, or permanently disabling them from posting on the Service again.

Is the behaviour newsworthy and in the legitimate public interest?

The Service moves at the speed of public consciousness and people come to the service to stay informed about what matters in the respective sports we offer.

Exposure to different viewpoints can help people learn from one another, become more tolerant, and make decisions about the type of society we want to live in.

To help ensure people have an opportunity to see every side of an issue, there may be the rare occasion when we allow controversial content or behaviour which may otherwise violate our Rules to remain on our service because we believe there is a legitimate public interest in its availability. Each situation is evaluated on a case by case basis and ultimately decided upon by our in-house team.

Some of the factors that help inform our decision-making about content are the impact it may have on the public, the source of the content, and the availability of alternative coverage of an event.

Public impact of the content:

A topic of legitimate public interest is different from a topic in which the public may be curious. We will consider what the impact is to citizens if they do not know about this content. If the Post does have the potential to impact the lives of large numbers of people, the running of a country, and/or it speaks to an important societal issue then we may allow the content to remain on the service.

Source of the content:

Some people, groups, organizations and the content they post on Playnbrag may be considered a topic of legitimate public interest by virtue of their being in the public consciousness. This does not mean that their Posts will always remain on the service. Rather, we will consider if there is a legitimate public interest for a particular Post to remain up so it can be openly discussed.

Availability of coverage:

Everyday people play a crucial role in providing firsthand accounts of what’s happening in the world, counterpoints to establishment views, and, in some cases, exposing the abuse of power by someone in a position of authority. As a situation unfolds, removing access to certain information could inadvertently hide context and/or prevent people from seeing every side of the issue. Thus, before actioning a potentially violating Post, we will take into account the role it plays in showing the larger story and whether that content can be found elsewhere.

5.1 It is important for You to be aware of the following username and password information & how to prevent unauthorised access from any 3rd party:

  • The username and password You choose to enable access must be kept secure and personal;

  • If You think Your password may be known by someone else You can change it, at any time, by clicking into “My Profile” section on the app & “Profile > Edit ” section of website / app on your device, then Change Password;

  • Lost or forgotten passwords can be reset by simply clicking on “Forgot Password?” & entering in your email and we will email You a link & a reset code to reset your password.

We will not accept any liability if your account has been accessed on the app by a 3rd party via a mobile device such as a phone or tablet due to your device been unlocked or a 3rd party having accessed it by unlocking your device whether unauthorised or otherwise.

  • Please also be aware that when logging in to the website / app from a device (computer or mobile device) for the first time, you will be asked if you want to save the password to your browser when accessing the site for subsequent logins from that computer or mobile device. For example, if you were to use chrome browser you would get the following message – “Do you want Google Chrome to save your password for this site – Save / Never”.

    If you select “Never” it will not save the password for future logins to that computer / mobile device.

    If you select “Save” it will save the password to the browser for future logins (password field will automatically be filled in, in login page) for subsequent logins to the site on that device, so it is your responsibility that you prevent unauthorised access to your account if you choose to save the password to your device to access the site / app.

    We will not be held liable if a 3rd party gains unauthorised access to your Playnbrag account through the website / app where you have saved the password to your device. So it is of paramount importance that you ensure your computer /device is always locked to prevent any unauthorised access. This is solely your responsibility and we will not be liable for unauthorised access or otherwise by any 3rd party.

    Likewise, it is of equal importance to prevent any 3rd party attempting to access your account through social media logins such as Facebook or Google login channels. Again, to prevent this you must ensure that your computer /mobile device is locked when using the Playnbrag Service so as to prevent unauthorised access from any 3rd party. This is your absolute responsibility and we will not be held liable for unauthorised access or otherwise by any 3rd party to your account.

  • The username and password You choose to enable access must be kept secure and personal;

  • If You think Your password may be known by someone else You can change it, at any time, by clicking into “My Profile” section on the app & “Profile > Edit ” section of website on your device, then Change Password;

  • Lost or forgotten passwords can be reset by simply clicking on “Forgot Password?” & entering in your email and we will email You a link & a reset code to reset your password.

  • If you choose to “Save” your Playnbrag password to your browser to access your account on your device where it is saved for future access you accept full responsibility for the safe keeping of that device & any unauthorised access (this is outlined in more detail below). We will not be held liable if your Playnbrag Account has been compromised by a 3rd party, with or without your consent.

  • When using the app you accept full responsibility for the safe keeping of that device (or devices) & please ensure that your phone or tablet is locked at all times when using our app so as to prevent any unauthorised access. We will not accept any liability if your account has been accessed on the app by a 3rd party via a mobile device such as a phone or tablet due to your device been unlocked or a 3rd party having accessed it by unlocking your device whether unauthorised or otherwise.

  • Please also be aware that when logging in to the website from a device (computer or mobile device) for the first time, you will be asked if you want to save the password to your browser when accessing the site for subsequent logins from that computer or mobile device. For example, if you were to use chrome browser you would get the following message – “Do you want Google Chrome to save your password for this site – Save / Never”.

  • If you select “Never” it will not save the password for future logins to that computer / mobile device.

    If you select “Save” it will save the password to the browser for future logins (password field will automatically be filled in, in login page) for subsequent logins to the site on that device, so it is your responsibility that you prevent unauthorised access to your account if you choose to save the password to the browser to access the site.

    We will not be held liable if a 3rd party gains unauthorised access to your Playnbrag account through the website where you have saved the password to your device. So it is of paramount importance that you ensure your computer /device is always locked to prevent any unauthorised access. This is solely your responsibility and we will not be liable for unauthorised access or otherwise by any 3rd party.

    Likewise, it is of equal importance to prevent any 3rd party attempting to access your account through social media logins such as Facebook or Google login channels.

5.3 We will not be liable if You disclose Your username or password to another party.

5.4 Regarding computer, app & device security – We will not be held liable in any way or form if You disclose the password to access your device to any other person.

13. VALID BETS AND WAGERS

13.1 Subject to the exceptions below, for pre-event bets a bet or wager is only considered valid following the generation of a league link after the user has created a league & confirmed a bet, and the deduction of the relevant stake. All bets are only confirmed after an uninterrupted pending period has completed and the bet has not been cancelled or made void for any reason, including market suspension

  • when a league pool bet is created a league link is generated but acceptance is only confirmed when the “Waste bin icon” is removed under My Leagues page next to the respective league/bet created due to one other person joining your league & agreeing to the bet. This means that your bet has now been activated as one other person has joined it.

As mentioned above, a pending bet will have a “Waste bin icon” next to it under My Leagues section meaning that the bet can be cancelled at any time. When the “Waste bin icon” is removed it means that the bet (and not the league) has now become active as one other person has joined it and it can no longer be cancelled.

The league becomes active when the league starts and the status changes from “Fixture” to “Ongoing” in the league details page.

13.2 by accepting our terms and Privacy Policy You acknowledge that the following conditions comprise part of our bet acceptance terms:

  • bet placement is not prohibited by any term of Your employment contract or any Sport's Governing Body rule which applies to You; and

  • You are not aware of any circumstances which would make the placing of the bet a breach of a betting rule being applied by a sport's governing body.

If any bet placed by You is found to be false and in contravention of this term, we will have the right to withhold any and all winnings, and Your stake will be forfeited win or lose. Your data will also be passed to the relevant sports' governing body, regulator and/or to the UK Gambling Commission as required by our licence conditions.

If any bet placed by You is found to be false and in contravention of this term, we will have the right to withhold any and all winnings, and Your stake will be forfeited win or lose. Your data will also be passed to the relevant sports' governing body, regulator and/or to the UK Gambling Commission as required by our licence conditions.


14. BREACH OF TERMS

  • You are under 18 years of age;

  • You are involved in fraud, money laundering, collusion, match rigging or cheating of any kind;

  • You are trying to use our site or Service from a restricted territory;

  • You are placing bets or wagers that are in contravention of the laws in Your country or place of residence; and/or

  • The placing of a bet may put at risk the integrity of the relevant sport's governing body.

14.2 In addition, any such breach will be regarded as a material breach and entitle us to terminate our Agreement with You immediately. As a result of Your actions we may use monies in Your account to settle any liabilities we may incur.


15. ERRORS OR OMISSIONS THAT APPLY SPECIFICALLY TO PLAYNBRAG

15.1 Gambling is a dynamic, fast moving activity which can lead to the occasional mistake by the user being made. For an example of some "obvious errors / mistakes", see below:

  • in the context of normal betting business, and the probability of the event occurring, a bet is accepted at a probability which is obviously imbalanced; (For example, if 2 people were to participate in a league/bet with each other – Where one Person selects 2 players that are odds on favourites on their team, the other person, 2 rank outsiders on their team – It is obvious the player with the 2 favourites has a higher probability of winning the “like for like” bet.

We will always aim to ensure accuracy and clarity in presenting our rules & conditions on the site/apps but cannot accept responsibility for any obvious errors in relation to the user’s selections, & users setting or agreeing to a bet.

All participants involved in either creating a private league or joining a private league must be fully aware that the link created can be shared to any 3rd person, either via email / private message, whatspp, or otherwise, or can be posted on their live home social media feed such as Facebook or Twitter.

The above responsibility of users sharing links privately or publicly is the sole responsibility of the user therefore playnbrag.com will not be held liable for how the users intend to share the link.

This responsibility is that of the users to communicate to each other what their preference is.

Likewise, all participants involved in either creating or joining a public league must be fully aware that the league they are creating or joining is open to the public. Therefore they accept that this is the case and take full responsibility for engaging in public leagues. The user accepts full responsibility when creating or joining a public league, and Playnbrag is not liable for their actions or errors.

15.2. Errors and Omissions

If at any point there is a technical error of any kind on the platform and one user is deemed to have an advantage over another user due to the error which is not in direct correspondence with the rules set out in the respective sport offering on the platform then we will do our utmost to resolve the issue if the league is still running (where the bet is live).

However, in some cases if this is not possible or feasible, we will immediately cancel the league / bet and all users will be refunded the original bet amount to their accounts. If a technical error like this was to take place whereby we are required to cancel the league you agree that we are only liable to the original bet amount placed and not the potential winnings from the cancelled league – due to 1 or more players in the league having an unfair advantage due to the technical error.

If there is any discrepancy between the gaming results on your computer/device and the results on our server, the results on our server shall be final and binding. If there is any discrepancy between your on-screen display and the balance in your account, the balance held on Playnbrag’s server is deemed to be the balance in your account and this determination shall be final and binding. You will forfeit any amounts shown to be in your account that result from human error or technical default.

If you are incorrectly awarded any winnings as a result of (a) any human error; (b) any bug, defect or error in the Software; or (c) the failure of the relevant Games offerings or the Software to operate in accordance with the rules of the relevant game, then Playnbrag will not be liable to pay you any such winnings and you agree to refund any such winnings that may have been paid to you as a result of such error or mistake.

If any sum is incorrectly credited to Your account or incorrect stakes are deducted You are obliged to notify us. We are permitted to reverse such credits and/or recover such sums from You, if withdrawn. If You use the sums improperly credited to place bets, or where stakes have not been deducted, we can void all such bets and reverse any winnings. If necessary, we are permitted to off-set any subsequent amounts You deposit or win with us to make good this liability.

Playnbrag and its respective licensees, distributors, parents, subsidiaries, affiliates and all of their officers and directors and employees will not be liable for any loss or damages which may be caused by the interception or misuse of any information transmitted over the Internet.


16. COMPLAINTS AND DISPUTES

16.1 In this section any "complaint "which refers to the general conduct of the licensed activities, other than the settlement of the transaction itself, will remain categorised as a complaint through the internal complaints procedure. Ultimately it will be the Customer Management Director's response, where escalated, which represents the final stage of this procedure.

Where the "complaint" refers to the settlement of a betting transaction, it will become a dispute where:

  • It is not resolved at the first stage of the complaints procedure and is escalated to the Customer Management Director;

  • following the response from the Customer Management Director, the complainant remains dissatisfied and subsequently refers the matter to the applicable external body for adjudication.;

Complaints will not be heard by us if they are not raised with our Customer Services within six months of the event occurring.

16.2 During this process all e-mail communications with You and any other person may be recorded. If the contents of these communications are disputed, then we will consult these records and these will be key in our decision making process, unless additional evidence is presented.

16.3 During the resolution process You must agree not to reveal the existence or detail of any complaints or disputes to any 3rd party, which could include discussions in chat rooms or equivalent forums. If confidentiality is broken, then so are the terms applying to this process and as a result the resolution process will be put on hold. In these circumstances we will also have the ability to freeze and potentially close Your account.

16.4 Customer & Technical Support

Playnbrag will have an email service where we aim to respond to queries, issues and complaints - both customer and technical support - within a 24 hour period.

Though from time to time it may take longer to respond to your query/issue/request/complaint due to our Service experiencing a high volume of traffic at certain times when popular sporting events are on that we offer on the site/apps. Please wait for our response in due course to assist you.

16.5 Complaints Procedure

The complaints procedure is as follows:

You should go to Contact Us Page (see Contact Us Link at bottom of page throughout the site/apps) and Select Under - Choose Category - Payment Issues & Complaints and Under - Choose Type - Complaints - and send us your complaint and an advisor will investigate the enquiry and respond to it.

The message will be logged and at this point it will be recorded as a complaint;

The Complaints Team will review Your complaint, and try to resolve it to your satisfaction and then communicate their resolution/decision to You.

If You remain dissatisfied You may escalate the matter to the Customer Management Director, admin@playnbrag.com, at which time it will be recorded as a dispute if it relates to a betting transaction.

16.6 Complaints and Disputes Resolution Policy

The complaints and disputes resolution policy is as follows:

  • upon receipt of an escalated complaint, the Customer Management Director will obtain a report from the complaints team, carry out any further necessary investigation and respond to You;

  • The Customer Management Director's response represents the final stage of the internal complaints and disputes procedure;

  • However, if You are still dissatisfied, and the dispute relates to the settlement of a betting or gaming transaction, You may escalate the matter externally to the Alternative Dispute Resolution for Consumer Disputes (ADR Group).

  • The ADR Group acts as an impartial adjudicator on disputes that arise between betting / gambling operators and their customers, after they have been through the operator's own internal dispute procedures but a deadlock remains.

  • In accordance with Part 4 of 2015 No. 542 Consumer Protection, the Alternative Dispute Resolution for Consumer Disputes (Competent Authorities and Information) Regulations 2015 we inform you that ADR Group (www.consumer-dispute.co.uk) is our ADR Entity. At such time as we have exhausted our internal complaints handling procedure when considering a complaint from a customer and we have been unable to settle that complaint ADR Group (www.consumer-dispute.co.uk) will be competent to deal with that complaint should the customer wish to use alternative dispute resolution and we will be obliged, or prepared, to submit to an alternative dispute resolution procedure operated by ADR Group (www.consumer-dispute.co.uk).

  • WE SUGGEST THAT YOU OBTAIN INDEPENDENT LEGAL ADVICE

    • Customers who are dissatisfied with the outcome of a complaint or challenge any process detailed in this section may raise the matter with the UK Gambling Commissioner, which requires the complainant to complete a Complaint Resolution Request Form. However the Commissioner stresses that other than in exceptional circumstances, all complaints should first be directed towards ADR to deal with.

The dispute must be referred to them within 6 months of when the dispute first arose with Playnbrag.


17. FRAUD

17.1 We will take the strongest criminal and contractual measures against You if You are found to be involved in fraud. If You are alleged or suspected of fraud we will deny payment to You and notify the relevant authorities of any illegal activities that You have undertaken, or attempted to undertake on our platform.

17.2 You will be liable to pay us, on demand, all costs, charges or losses experienced by us, as a result of any fraudulent activity by You. This will include any direct, indirect or consequential losses, any loss of profit and loss of reputation, arising directly or indirectly from Your fraud, dishonesty or criminal act.


18. COLLUSION

18.1. Collusion occurs when two or more customers attempt to gain an unfair advantage, over other customers, by sharing knowledge of games or other information.

18.2 You may be permanently banned from using our offerings /Service, and Your account may be terminated immediately if You attempt to collude, or actually collude with any other customer.

18.3 Where possible, registered complaints will be investigated against customers suspected of collusion. If we are made aware of suspected collusive behaviour, during play, we may at our sole discretion decide to terminate suspected customers access to the Service and/or block their accounts whilst releasing any existing funds to their bank / payment accounts. However under no circumstances will we be liable for any loss experienced by You as a result of the collusive or unlawful activity of any person using the Service or software.

18.4 For the avoidance of doubt, collusion includes both hard or direct collusion and soft collusion, i.e. where a player acts differently against different opponents within the same game because of external influence.

You should report such activity to our Customer Services team as soon as reasonably practicable. Such practices are not allowed and we will take all reasonable steps to investigate any such complaints and, where possible, prevent them. We shall not, however, be liable for any form of loss sustained by you as a result of any of the activities outlined above or any other such unlawful activity of any persons using the Service/Website/Apps.


19. UNFAIR ADVANTAGE PROGRAMS

19.1 You are not allowed to use any application, program or software, or any other advantage by external factors, to automatically play, including without limitation a robot, when using our Service. Any such use will constitute a breach of these terms and without prejudice to any other right available to us we will:

  • block Your access to the Service and/or the network;

  • terminate Your account and seize all the monies held in the account.

19.2 Use of any such "bot" software programs goes against our terms as it may in some instances potentially put other players at a disadvantage.


20. SELF-EXCLUSION

20.1 We recognise that although for most gambling is fun, for others it can become a problem. As a result we provide a self-exclusion facility for those wanting to control their gambling.

You can go to our Responsible Betting & Gaming page or Contact Us Page and Select Under - Choose Category - Exclusion / Report - and then Under - Choose Type - Self Exclusion - and send us a message to self-exclude yourself from our service.

You can also now use the “Self Exclude” tab at the top of the Self Exclusion Page to Self Exclude immediately from our Service. It is available once You login at the top of the Self Exclusion page on the website & apps. All monies in your account will be immediately released back to your payment card account upon doing so. As mentioned above You must be logged in first to execute this action.

Under the Responsible Betting & Gaming page You can review the assistance available and understand just how seriously we take this issue and find all relevant & support information.

20.2 Self-exclusion is a formal process whereby You request us to prevent You from being able to access Your Playnbrag online account

  • the minimum self-exclusion period offered is of a duration of not less than 6 nor more than 12 months

  • any self-exclusion may, on request, be extended for one or more further periods of at least 6 months

  • the self-exclusion arrangements gives You the option of selecting a self-exclusion period of up to at least five years

20.3 We will action Your request to self-exclude Your online Account with immediate effect upon receipt & acknowledgement of Your request and confirm this to You by email.

20.4 We reserve the right to contact You should any further information be required.

20.5 Any remaining balances will be returned to You by a method determined by us (conditional upon complete account verification where appropriate).

20.6 Any existing leagues you are in will continue as before, but you will be unable to access the site/apps, and you will be forwarded the winnings if you win. After which point when the last league ends the account will become inactive and close.

20.7 We accept no responsibility or liability if You fail to provide, or provide inaccurate or incomplete information which prevents us in our sole determination from applying Your self-exclusion to Your Account.

20.8 We may refuse to apply Your self-exclusion to any playnbrag account if there is any doubt at our sole discretion whether the account belongs to You – e.g. if you are unable to verify that the account belongs to you.

20.9 You cannot revoke, rescind or withdraw this self-exclusion agreement prior to the stated expiry date. A new Playnbrag account of any kind may not be opened.

20.10 During Your self-exclusion period, we will take reasonable steps to ensure that You will no longer receive marketing materials. We will also employ reasonable automated checks to endeavour to ensure that You can no longer transact with Playnbrag.com.

20.11 During Your period of self-exclusion, You have an equal undertaking not to seek to circumvent the self-exclusion agreement by entering or continuing (or asking a 3rd party on Your behalf) to participate in gambling and betting services via Playnbrag online operations.

20.12 During Your self-exclusion period, in the event (or in circumstances that are beyond Playnbrag's reasonable control):

  • You inadvertently receive marketing material and You continue gambling as a result; and/or

  • You circumvent Your self-exclusion agreement by (including but not limited to) (i) continuing to gamble; or (ii) by opening and operating new accounts; and/or (iii) automated checks and/or IT or software programmes fail to recognise any attempt by You to circumvent Your self-exclusion:

  • Playnbrag.com shall have no responsibility or liability to You or any third party and is therefore under no obligation to return any deposits, winnings, or other funds in respect of such activity online.

20.13 Any accounts found to be in breach of a self-exclusion agreement will be closed as soon as they are discovered.

20.14 At the end of a self-exclusion period the person in question can contact a member of our Playnbrag Customer Service team by going to the Contact Us Page and Select Under - Choose Category - Re-Activate Account - and then send us a message to get your account re-activated.

20.15 Following this Your accounts subject to Your self-exclusion request will be reactivated and Your self-exclusion lifted unless You contact us again within this period and request for Your self-exclusion to remain in place for a further 12 month period.

20.16 Any account subject to Your self-exclusion may not be reactivated until any existing Playnbrag self-exclusion agreement has terminated.

20.17 As part of this process we also recommend that You self-exclude from other Operators at Your earliest opportunity. Please also refer to our Responsible Betting & Gaming page where You will find additional information and a support contact number for the National Gambling Helpline should You wish to use the free counselling service they provide.

20.18 TIME-OUT PERIOD

20.19 In addition to self-exclusion, we offer a "time out" period. You can request a time out for any time period from 24 hours up to 6 months by going to the Contact Us Page and Select Under - Choose Category - Exclusion / Report - and then Under - Choose Type - Time Out - and send us a message with the requested time out. During this period Your Playnbrag online account that You hold will be temporarily closed. The facility will be automatically removed upon the expiry of the period, or can be removed at any point upon request. While the time out is in place, we will endeavour not to send You any marketing material.

20.20 We accept no responsibility or liability if You fail to provide, or provide inaccurate or incomplete information which prevents us in our sole determination from applying Your time out period to accounts.

20.21 We may refuse to apply Your time out to any Playnbrag account if there is any doubt at our sole discretion whether the account belongs to You – e.g. if you are unable to verify that the account belongs to you.
