Section XV-1141 - Limitation on Active Accounts; Obligations to Players
Universal Citation: LA Admin Code XV-1141
Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 9, September 20, 2024
A. An operator shall:
1. limit each authorized player to one active
and continuously used account and username;
2. implement rules and procedures to suspend
all accounts of any player that establishes or seeks to establish more than one
username or more than one account, whether directly or by use of another person
as a proxy;
3. publish parental
control procedures to facilitate parents or guardians to exclude minors from
access to a sports wagering platform. The procedures shall include a link or
toll-free number to call for help in establishing such parental
controls;
4. make clear conspicuous
statements that are not inaccurate or misleading concerning the conduct of
sports wagering;
5. permit any
player to permanently close an account registered to the player at any time and
for any reason;
6. implement
measures to protect the privacy and online security of players, their sports
wagering account, and their personal financial information and personal patron
data.
7. not allow a player to
transfer funds from a sports wagering account to another player-us sports
wagering account.
8. employ a
mechanism that can detect and prevent any sports wagering or withdrawal
activity initiated by a player that would result in a negative balance of a
sports wagering account.
9. allow a
player to withdraw the funds maintained in his sports wagering account within
five business days of the request being made. For purposes of this Paragraph, a
request for withdrawal is considered honored if it is processed by the operator
but delayed by a payment processor, credit card issuer, or by the custodian of
a financial account through no fault, action, or inaction of the operator. If
an operator has requested documentation from a player in order to facilitate
the withdrawal, the time waiting for such documentation shall not be factored
into the five business days for approval.
a.
An operator may decline to honor a player-us request to withdraw funds only if
the operator believes in good faith that the player engaged in fraudulent
conduct or other conduct that would put the operator in violation of the Act or
these rules. In such cases, the operator may withhold the funds for a
reasonable investigatory period until the investigation is resolved, if the
operator conducts its investigation in a reasonable and expedient
fashion.
