Current through Register 1531, September 27, 2024

With respect to DFS Consumers and to any other person present in Massachusetts:

(1) No Gameplay by Minors. A DFSO shall not allow a Minor to participate in any DFS contest, whether or not a Prize is offered in that contest.

(2) Refunds of Deposits by Minors. A DFSO shall promptly refund any money held in a Minor's account, whether or not the Minor has engaged in or attempted to engage in gameplay. A DFSO may refuse to award a Prize to a Minor upon a good-faith determination, following reasonable investigation, that the Minor misrepresented his or her age in order to enter the DFS contest, provided, however, that such Prize must then be awarded to another participant in the contest who would have won the Prize had the Minor not participated.

(3) No DFS Games Based on Amateur Sporting Events. DFSOs shall not permit entry in DFS contests that include amateur, college, high school or student sporting events.

(4) Parental Controls. DFSOs shall make available, Prominently Publish and facilitate parental control procedures to allow parents or guardians to exclude Minors from access to any DFS Contest Platform.
