Guidelines on using Safer Gambling Standard logos

Using the logo online: We recommend that assured businesses use the logo in their website footer as well as within their safer or responsible gambling webpages, ensuring that all text within the logo is visible to the customer. Wherever the logo is used, it must be hyperlinked to our assured business listings page: https://www.safergamblingstandard.org.uk/assured-businesses/ 

Using the logo in print: We recommend that assured businesses use the logo within print media where relevant, ensuring that all text within the logo is visible to the customer.

GamCare will engage with businesses who are found to be misusing the Safer Gambling Standard logo or who are found to be misleading people about the status of their Safer Gambling Standard Award.

Should any business or individual (including Safer Gambling Standard assured businesses or formerly assured businesses) make incorrect or misleading references to the Safer Gambling Standard Certification Scheme or engage in misleading use of certificates, logos or marks, or any other mechanism relating to the gambling business having achieved the Safer Gambling Standard found in documentation or other publicity, GamCare reserves the right to take remedial steps including legal action.

Organisations can use this logo to direct their customers to support if needed.
