STS is committed to endorsing Responsible Gambling amongst its customers as well as promoting awareness of problem gambling and improving prevention by early intervention. We believe that online gambling should be not only enjoyable but also safe.
The majority of players who use gambling services play in moderation for entertainment. Certain habits and behaviour patterns (such as shopping, playing sports, eating or consumption of alcohol) that are considered to be normal and not cause for concern can develop into addiction for some people and cause problems. In the same way, betting on sports and gambling can lead to problems for some customers.
