Terms of Use

Last updated: 16 October 2026

Claret Philippines is an information site about live-dealer casino technology, slot mechanics and licensing regimes, written for adult players in Canada. It is not a casino, it does not accept wagers, and it holds no player funds. Nothing published here is gambling advice or a recommendation to deposit at any operator.

Who may use this site?

Access is limited to adults who have reached the legal gambling age in their province or territory, which in Canada means eighteen or nineteen depending on where they live. If you are under that age, or if gambling is restricted where you are, leave the site. Bea Villaruel writes for a Canadian readership, and the material assumes that readership.

What does the site check first?

Bea worked as a live-television broadcast technician in Manila, on camera positions and vision-mixing desks, before she began writing about live-dealer studio technology. That background shapes the method. Camera counts, OCR card-reading accuracy and lag figures are checked against a studio’s own technical disclosures or against a live test session, and never against marketing copy. Regulatory facts are taken from AGCO or iGaming Ontario notices. Where a claim cannot be traced to a source of that kind, it does not run.

What is acceptable use?

• Read, quote briefly and link back to the page you took the quote from.
• Do not scrape the site, republish whole articles, or present the material as your own.
• Do not use the site to advertise, to mislead players, or to imply that Claret Philippines endorses an operator.

How accurate is the information?

Studio specifications, licensing rules and platform behaviour change without notice, so a figure that was correct at publication may be stale months later. Articles carry their own dates, and the date at the top of this page shows when the terms last changed. Readers who spot an error can raise it through the contact page, and the editorial policy sets out how corrections are handled.

What about links to other sites?

Outbound links are provided for reference. Claret Philippines does not control those destinations and is not responsible for their content, their terms or their privacy practices. Some outbound links may be affiliate links, which is explained on the affiliate disclosure page. Support services worth knowing about include ConnexOntario at 1-866-531-2600 or connexontario.ca, the Responsible Gambling Council Canada at responsiblegambling.org, and Gambling Therapy at gamblingtherapy.org.

Who owns the content?

Text, layout and original graphics on this site belong to Claret Philippines. Short quotations with a link back to the source page are welcome. Wholesale copying is not.

What are the limits of liability?

The site is provided as is. To the extent permitted by applicable Canadian law, Claret Philippines gives no warranty as to accuracy, completeness or fitness for a particular purpose, and accepts no liability for losses arising from use of the site or from decisions made after reading it. Nothing here removes rights that cannot be excluded by law.

Can these terms change?

Yes. The terms may be revised as the site grows, and the date at the top of the page will change when they are. Continued use after a revision means you accept the revised terms. Governing law is the applicable Canadian law, kept general because the readership spans several provinces.
