Responsible Gaming

Observe: Gambling is entertainment, not a way to make money. Expand: Responsible gaming means setting personal limits, recognizing risks early, and using built‑in protections. Reflect: bluefox-casino, operated for Canadian customers via bluefox-ca.com by ProgressPlay Limited (MGA/B2C/231/2012; UKGC 39335), offers tools and support to help you stay in control. If gambling stops being fun, we will assist you with limits, breaks, and professional referrals.

Risk Awareness

Observe: Problem gambling can develop gradually and may be hard to self-detect. Expand: Look for changes in time spent, spending patterns, and mood. Reflect: If several indicators apply, use our tools below and contact support or a helpline.

  • Increasing bet sizes or deposits to "win back" losses (chasing).
  • Thinking about gambling when doing other activities; preoccupation with the next session.
  • Playing longer than intended; losing track of time or skipping obligations.
  • Hiding gambling from family or friends; feeling guilt after play.
  • Depositing after midnight or immediately after a loss; repeated declined transactions.
  • Using funds meant for bills, credit, or essentials.
  • Feeling irritable when unable to play; using gambling to escape stress or low mood.

Self‑assessment mini‑check

  • I often gamble longer or spend more than I plan.
  • I have tried to cut down but could not.
  • I gamble to cope with stress, anxiety, or sadness.
  • My gambling has affected my work, studies, or relationships.
  • I have borrowed money or sold items to fund gambling.

Answering "yes" to two or more suggests risk. Consider limits, Time‑Out, or Self‑Exclusion and seek confidential help.

Limits & Tools

Observe: Limits reduce risk by capping time and spend. Expand: Set them before or during play; decreases apply immediately, increases only after a cooling‑off period. Reflect: Use conservative amounts aligned to discretionary income-not credit or essential funds.

Deposit limits (daily/weekly/monthly)

  1. Log in at bluefox-ca.com. Go to My Account > Responsible Gaming > Limits.
  2. Select Deposit Limits and choose a period: Daily, Weekly, or Monthly.
  3. Enter a CAD amount you can afford (e.g., 50/day; 150/week; 300/month).
  4. Confirm. Decreases take effect immediately. Increases become active only after a minimum 24-hour cooling‑off and explicit reconfirmation.

Legal note: Limits cap deposits across this account only. We may apply additional operator-level caps based on risk assessments.

Time spent limits and session reminders

  1. Open My Account > Responsible Gaming > Time Limits.
  2. Set a Session Timer (e.g., reminders every 30/45/60 minutes).
  3. Optionally set a Daily Play Cap (e.g., 60-180 minutes). You will be logged out when reached.

Taking a short break (Time‑Out 24-72 hours)

  1. Go to My Account > Responsible Gaming > Time‑Out.
  2. Choose a duration: 24, 48, or 72 hours.
  3. Confirm. You will be logged out and cannot deposit or play during the Time‑Out. The period cannot be shortened once started.

Regional compliance note (CA): Age limits apply: 19+ in most provinces; 18+ in AB, MB, QC. This site is not provincially licensed in Canada; we apply MGA/UKGC safer-gambling standards to Canadian customers of bluefox-ca.com.

Self‑Exclusion

Observe: When risk is high, temporary or permanent exclusion is the safest step. Expand: Self‑Exclusion blocks access and marketing. Reflect: Choose the longest period you feel necessary; we can help you decide confidentially.

How to self‑exclude

  1. Log in and open My Account > Responsible Gaming > Self‑Exclusion (or request via live chat/email).
  2. Select a period: 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 5 years, or Lifetime.
  3. Read the summary of consequences and check the confirmation box.
  4. Click Confirm. We will immediately log you out and send a confirmation to your registered email.
  5. If you cannot access your account, email customersupport@instantgamesupport.com with subject "Self‑Exclusion - bluefox-ca.com" from your registered email.

Consequences and important terms

  • Access blocked: You cannot log in, deposit, or play until the period ends (lifetime is permanent).
  • Marketing: We will cease promotional emails/SMS where technically feasible.
  • Balances: Real‑money balances can be withdrawn on request subject to KYC, security checks, and settlement of pending transactions. Bonus funds and incomplete wagering are forfeited.
  • Open bets: Where applicable, unsettled bets will be settled; subsequent access remains blocked.
  • Early return: Self‑Exclusion cannot be shortened. After a fixed term ends, reactivation (if requested) includes a minimum 24‑hour cooling‑off and a safer‑gambling assessment. Lifetime exclusions are not reopened.

Regional note (CA): Provincial self‑exclusion (e.g., iGaming Ontario "My PlayBreak", provincial lotteries/casinos) does not automatically cover bluefox-ca.com. Consider enrolling separately with those programs if you use them.

Support Resources

Observe: Immediate access to qualified help improves outcomes. Expand: Canada operates provincial services; international NGOs provide 24/7 multilingual support online. Reflect: Choose the channel you're most comfortable with; all services listed maintain confidentiality.
