At Kickr, we are committed to providing a safe and enjoyable gaming experience for all our customers. A key aspect of this commitment is promoting and supporting responsible social gameplay.
What is Responsible Social Gameplay?
Responsible Social Gameplay is the practice of engaging in gaming activities in a way that is controlled and does not negatively impact your personal life, health, finances, or the well-being of those around you. It involves understanding the potential risks associated with social gaming, recognizing the signs of problem behaviour, and taking measures to play safely.
Responsible Social Gameplay is a shared responsibility between Kickr and our customers. We are dedicated to providing a safe and responsible gaming environment, but it is equally important for our customers to engage in gaming activities in a responsible manner. Remember, gaming should always be fun and never a necessity. If you ever feel like you need help or support with your playing habits, please do not hesitate to contact us or seek professional advice.
