Privacy

This page explains how Stake handles your personal information, why we collect it, and what rights you have over your data. We operate under Canadian provincial gaming regulations and take privacy seriously.

Responsible Gambling

Gambling should be a form of entertainment, not a way to make money. If you feel it is becoming a problem, help is available.

You can use several tools to manage your play:, Set deposit limits, loss limits, or session time limits through your account settings., Enable reality checks to receive alerts about how long you’ve been playing., Choose a cooling-off period (24 hours to 6 weeks) to pause your account temporarily., Self-exclude for a longer period if needed.

Any limit you lower takes effect right away. If you want to raise a limit, you must wait at least 24 hours. This delay helps prevent impulsive decisions.

Signs of problem gambling include chasing losses, lying about how much you gamble, or using gambling to escape stress. These are real concerns, not signs of weakness. Free, confidential support is offered by organizations like the Canadian Centre on Substance Use and Addiction and local provincial helplines.

Accounts are restricted to adults aged 18 and over. We verify age and identity during registration. If you share a device with minors, consider using parental control software such as Net Nanny or K9 Web Protection to block access.

Account Terms and Fair Play

Only one account per person is allowed. You must be at least 18 years old and reside in a province where online gaming is permitted.

We require identity verification (known as KYC) before processing your first withdrawal. This step confirms you are who you say you are and helps prevent fraud. Have a government-issued ID and proof of address ready.

Bonuses come with terms: wagering requirements, eligible games, expiry dates, and conversion caps. Bonus abuse, like creating multiple accounts or exploiting game mechanics, will void offers and may lead to account restrictions.

Inactive accounts (no logins for 12 months) may be closed. We will notify you before this happens.

You agree not to use bots, collude with others, or file false chargebacks. These actions violate fair play rules. If you have a complaint, contact our support team first. If unresolved, you may escalate it to your provincial gaming regulator.

We may update these terms. When we do, we’ll post a notice in your account or send an email.
