Minors & Age Protection
AW888 strictly prohibits access to and use of the Platform by any person under the age of 21. The Platform is not directed at, nor does it knowingly collect personal data from, individuals under 21 years of age.
Where AW888 becomes aware — through the KYC process or otherwise — that personal data has been collected from an individual under 21 years of age, all such data will be immediately deleted, the account closed, and any deposits returned where legally possible. The matter will be reported to the relevant authorities where required.
If you believe that a minor may be using or attempting to access the AW888 Platform, please contact us immediately at [email protected]. Protecting minors from gambling harm is a non-negotiable commitment for AW888.
