Instructions - Internet and Online Sports Wagering Self-Exclusion

Please read before proceeding

  1. Your identifying information will be distributed to all New Jersey Internet gaming platform providers and casino properties. Your Request Form and the Internet Gaming Self-Exclusion List maintained by DGE are not open to public inspection and every effort will be made to maintain their confidentiality. However, DGE, the casinos, racetrack sports wagering facilities and the Internet gaming platform providers are not liable for any disclosures of any information, other than a willfully unlawful disclosure. Certain limited disclosures by the casinos and Internet gaming platform providers may inform certain of their agents, including cash advance services and junket representatives, that you are on the Self-Exclusion List for the purposes of denying you gaming-related services. The casinos, racetrack sports wagering facilities and Internet gaming platform providers are permitted, by law, to disclose to affiliate gaming entities in this state or other jurisdictions that you are on the Self-Exclusion List for the limited purpose of the proper administration of responsible gaming programs administered by the affiliated gaming entities.

  2. You should be aware that casino licensees, racetrack sports wagering facilities and Internet gaming platform providers might enact responsible gaming programs that are stricter than New Jersey's Self-Exclusion program for both land-based and Internet gaming. By way of example certain Atlantic City casinos and racetrack sports wagering facilities may enact a Responsible Gaming Program in which persons signing up for state self-exclusion lists are banned from the organization's properties worldwide for the length of their state self-exclusion terms. Such a ban could include its gaming, hotel and entertainment venues. ACCORDINGLY, YOU SHOULD BE AWARE THAT A CASINO, ONLINE GAMING PLATFORM PROVIDER OR SPORTS WAGERING PROVIDER MAY, AS A CONSEQUENCE OF YOUR SIGNING UP FOR INTERNET SELF-EXCLUSION, BAN YOU FROM ALL OF ITS LAND BASED PROPERTIES AS WELL AS ALL OF ITS ONLINE GAMING AND ONLINE SPORTS WAGERING, EVEN THOSE IN OTHER STATES. YOU COULD ALSO FORFEIT ANY REWARDS POINTS YOU MAY HAVE EARNED IN NEW JERSEY OR ELSEWHERE. The terms and existence of any such responsible gaming program could change, and DGE is not responsible for keeping you informed of such changes.

  3. In accordance with Section 7 of the Privacy Act, 5 U.S.C. 552a, disclosure of your social security number to DGE is voluntary. Failure to disclose your social security number is not grounds for denial of your request for self-exclusion. However, a delay may occur in notification to Internet gaming platform providers for a person who has not supplied a social security number. A failure to supply your social security number may compromise the effectiveness of self-exclusion procedures implemented by Internet gaming platform providers. The request for your social security number is made pursuant to the Casino Control Act, N.J.S.A. 5:12-1, et seq. Your social security number will be disclosed to the Internet gaming license platform providers for their use in identifying you as a self-excluded person to prevent you from gambling, to deny you credit, check cashing and similar privileges, and for forfeiture purposes. Submission of your Social Security Number is required if you are requesting to be self-excluded from Internet (online) gaming through online registration. If you do not want to disclose your social security number, please contact the Division of Gaming Enforcement at 1-833-788-4DGE to schedule an in-person or video conference.

  4. When registering online, you must choose one of the two following options in connection with the length of time your name must remain on the Internet Gaming Self-Exclusion List: one year or five years. If you choose the one-year option, or the five-year option, you cannot request the removal of your name from the Internet Gaming Self-Exclusion List until after the expiration of the minimum one-year or five-year self-exclusion period you chose on your Request for Voluntary Exclusion Form. Additionally, your name will continue to remain on the Internet Gaming Self-Exclusion List until you request its removal. If you wish to self-exclude from internet gaming for a lifetime you must schedule an in-person or video conference. A request for lifetime self-exclusion can be completed by contacting the Division of Gaming Enforcement at 1-833-788-4DGE to schedule an in-person or video conference.

  5. It is your responsibility to refrain from gaming activities. DGE, the casinos and the Internet gaming platform providers are not liable for any acts or omissions in processing or enforcing of your request for self-exclusion, including the failure to withhold your gaming privileges. However, if you are caught gambling on an Internet gaming platform, you will be subject to forfeiture of any winnings including electronic credits on your account and funds on your on-line gaming account which were the result of your gaming activity. DGE, the casinos and Internet gaming providers are also not liable for any acts or omissions in processing or enforcing any request by you to be removed from the Internet Gaming Self-Exclusion List.

  6. For the complete rules governing the Internet Gaming Self-Exclusion program, see the Casino Control Act at N.J.S.A. 5:12-71.2 and 71.3, as well as the regulations set forth at N.J.A.C. 13:69G-2.1 through 2.5. Copies of these rules are available upon request from Division personnel and are also available on the Division's website. Rules may be changed without prior notice to Self-Exclusion program participants.
