hdbd's commitment to responsible gaming
So that entertainment never becomes a problem — hdbd is committed to ensuring a safe, aware, and enjoyable gaming experience at all times.
Gaming is for entertainment — not addiction
Online casino and betting is primarily a form of entertainment. But like any form of entertainment, enjoying it in the right measure is what matters most. hdbd believes that building healthy gaming habits is every player's responsibility — and we stand by you in that responsibility.
On this page you will learn how to keep your gaming spending and time under control, which signs indicate a problem, and where to get help if needed. Use the tools available on our platform and always play with enjoyment.
Remember — the decision to play should always be a conscious choice of your own. Never use gaming to chase losses or to relieve stress. hdbd always treats responsible gaming as the highest priority.
Age verification is mandatory
hdbd is for players aged 21 and above only. Completing the age verification process at account registration is required. Accounts belonging to underage individuals will be closed immediately.
hdbd's tools for your protection
Set a deposit limit
Set a limit on how much money you deposit per day, week, or month. Once a limit is set it takes effect immediately, and to increase it you must wait out a designated waiting period. This keeps your budget protected.
Session time limit
Set a time limit on how long you play in one sitting. When the set time is up, the platform will notify you to take a break. Avoid long sessions and maintain your mental wellbeing.
Time-out break
If you feel you need a short break, temporarily suspend your account for anywhere between 24 hours and 30 days. During this time you will not be able to log in or place bets. Come back with a refreshed mind.
Self-exclusion
If gaming feels out of control, use the self-exclusion option. This completely closes your account for a period ranging from 6 months to permanently. No marketing communications will be sent during the exclusion period either.
Reality check notifications
At set intervals, your screen will display information about your current session — how long you have been playing and a summary of wins and losses. This keeps you aware of the real situation and makes it easier to make timely decisions.
24/7 support team
Our support team is available around the clock for any questions or help regarding responsible gaming. Contact us via live chat or email — assistance is available in both Bengali and English.
Recognize the warning signs of a problem
Gaming addiction develops gradually and often goes unnoticed. Be alert if you notice the following signs:
Personal and financial signs
- Placing bets beyond your means
- Playing repeatedly to try to recover lost money
- Continuing to game by paying bills late, taking on debt, or borrowing money
- Hiding gaming from family or friends
- Being unable to stick to self-imposed limits
Psychological and behavioural signs
- Feeling restless or uncomfortable when trying to stop gaming
- Becoming irritable when not gaming
- Neglecting work, studies, or family
- Constantly having your mind preoccupied with thoughts of playing
- Gaming at the expense of sleep or meals
Build healthy gaming habits
Following the right habits will keep gaming enjoyable at all times. hdbd recommends:
Set a budget in advance
Allocate a fixed amount for gaming each month — spend only that amount and stop once it is used up.
Set a time limit
Take breaks instead of playing for long stretches at a time. Decide at the start of the day the maximum amount of time you will spend playing.
Accept losses as normal
Winning is not guaranteed in every game — losing is normal. Do not place more bets in an attempt to recover losses.
Avoid gaming under stress
Refrain from playing when you are angry, sad, or under mental stress. It is harder to make sound decisions in that state.
Let family and friends know
Keep your loved ones informed about your gaming habits. People close to you can often help identify a problem earlier.
How to use the tools
From account settings
After logging in to your hdbd account, go to the "Account Settings" or "Responsible Gaming" section. There you will find the deposit limit, session limit, reality check, and time-out options.
Through support
If you have difficulty changing settings on your own, contact our 24/7 live chat support or email [email protected]. Our team will help you set the limits you need.
Activate self-exclusion
To request self-exclusion, email [email protected] directly. Your account will be deactivated as soon as the request is received, and any active bonuses will be cancelled.
Seek outside help
Gaming addiction is a health issue — there is nothing to be ashamed of. If needed, reach out to a mental health professional or a trusted counsellor. Support from family and friends can also be very effective.
Our commitment to protecting parents
hdbd strictly prohibits access to anyone under 21. However, parents can also take steps to protect underage members of the household:
- Keep your account login details completely private.
- Clear browser history and saved passwords on shared devices.
- Have an open conversation with your children about the risks of online gaming and betting.
- Use parental control software on family devices.
If you suspect an underage person is using our platform, notify us immediately at [email protected]. We will take the necessary action without delay.
