2. Site Purpose

firstdonoharm.org.nz is an informational and review website dedicated to providing independent reviews, comparisons, and educational content about online pokies available to New Zealand players. We are not a gambling operator, casino, or licensed gaming provider. We do not offer gambling services, accept bets, or provide access to gambling platforms directly. Our website serves solely to inform, educate, and review third-party online casinos and gaming providers. Any gambling activity must be conducted directly with licensed operators through their own platforms.

By using firstdonoharm.org.nz, you represent and warrant that you meet this age requirement. We do not knowingly permit access to minors. If you are under 18, you are prohibited from using this site. Parents and guardians are encouraged to monitor their children's internet usage.

4. Disclaimer

The information, reviews, ratings, and content provided on firstdonoharm.org.nz are offered on an "as is" basis and are intended for informational purposes only. While we endeavour to provide accurate, up-to-date information, we make no warranties or guarantees regarding the accuracy, completeness, or currency of any content on this site. Online casino offerings, terms, bonuses, and regulations change frequently.

You are solely responsible for verifying all information directly with the relevant casino operator before making any decisions or deposits. We strongly recommend that you review each operator's Terms and Conditions, privacy policies, and licensing information independently. FirstDoNoHarm is not responsible for any inaccuracies, omissions, or changes in information published by third-party operators.

Gambling carries risks, including the risk of financial loss and potential harm to mental health and wellbeing. Please gamble responsibly and within your means.

5. Affiliate Relationship

firstdonoharm.org.nz participates in affiliate marketing programs with online casinos and gaming operators. This means we may earn referral commissions or other compensation when users click through our links and register with, or make deposits at, partner casinos. This affiliate relationship is disclosed here to ensure transparency.

Our affiliate relationships do not influence the objectivity of our reviews or recommendations. However, we encourage you to be aware of this financial relationship when considering our content. We endeavour to maintain editorial integrity and recommend only operators that we believe meet appropriate standards, but your independent verification of all information is essential.
