Social Responsibility

1. Marketing communications should not use themes, images, symbols, or portrayals likely to cause widespread harm or offense, as well as derogatory or demeaning. If marketing communication is to be used in more than one country, the cultural and religious sensitivities of all the countries involved should be respected.

5. Marketing communications should not be associated with violent, aggressive, hazardous, illegal, or antisocial behavior. They should not be associated with illegal activity of any kind.
   
   
6. Marketing communications should not depict betting/gaming in a manner associated with attaining adulthood or the ‘rite of passage’ to adulthood.

8. Marketing communications should not be designed to make false promises or present winning as the probable outcome. In addition, they must not imply that the chances of winning increase the longer one plays, the more one spends, or suggest that skill can influence the outcome (for games where skill is not a factor).
   
   
9. Marketing communications should not suggest that betting/gaming can enhance personal qualities (i.e., that it can improve self-image or self-esteem or that it is a way to gain control, superiority, recognition, or admiration), nor should such communications link betting/gaming to seduction, sexual success, or enhanced attractiveness.

Responsible Gambling

1. Marketing should not portray excessive or socially irresponsible participation by individuals of legal age which could lead to financial, social, or emotional harm. ‘Excessive or socially irresponsible’ and “which could lead to financial, social, or emotional harm” refer to the amount bet/gambled and to how it is done.

4. Marketing communications should not suggest that betting/gaming can provide an escape from personal or professional problems, or portray betting/gaming as indispensable or as taking priority in life (for example, over family, friends, or professional or educational commitments).
