The firm transgressed regulations by dispatching these emails to individuals who had self-excluded themselves from gambling activities or opted out of marketing. This constitutes a grave breach of the UK&#8217;s gambling rules, which prioritize safeguarding susceptible patrons. <\/p>\n<p>The governing body recognized Sky Betting and Gaming&#8217;s rapid response and collaboration during the inquiry. <\/p>\n<p>The Commission, in accordance with its licensing, adherence, and enforcement guidelines, decided to impose a penalty of \u00a31.17 million on the company under Section 121(1) of the legislation.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Those who have opted out of gambling are likely to be experiencing gambling-related difficulties and should absolutely not be receiving direct mail marketing that could entice them back into gambling,&#8221; stated Andrew Rhodes, Chief Executive of the Gambling Commission.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We strongly encourage all operators to learn from Sky Betting and Gaming&#8217;s costly errors and ensure their systems are sufficiently robust to consistently prevent self-excluded individuals and those who have explicitly declined marketing from receiving promotional materials.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The recent penalty would have been considerably higher if Sky Betting and Gaming had permitted any self-excluded customers to actually gamble, failed to cooperate, and had not taken decisive steps to prevent it from recurring.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The recent penalty follows a series of other enforcement actions against operators in recent weeks.<\/p>\n<p>Last week, the Commission fined 888 \u00a39.4 million for a series of social responsibility and anti-money laundering shortcomings, including setting a deposit threshold for financial checks at \u00a340,000.<\/p>\n<p>BetVictor operator BV Gaming Limited also agreed to pay a \u00a32 million regulatory settlement. <\/p>\n<p>The group has made a few errors regarding equity, social duty, and anti-money laundering. <\/p>\n<p>Subscribe to the iGaming newsletter. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p class=\"text-justify mb-2\" >The British Gambling Commission has levied a substantial \u00a31.17 million penalty on Sky Betting and Gaming for sending promotional emails to customers who had explicitly requested not to receive marketing communications.
