forbes Jurisdiction Notice

Service availability and jurisdiction restrictions on forbes

We at forbes operate our platform only in jurisdictions where online wagering is legally permitted. We do not offer our services in territories where local law prohibits online gambling, sportsbook betting, live-dealer gaming, or slot play. Our platform uses geolocation detection and account-verification data to identify users in restricted jurisdictions and deny access where required.

By creating an account on forbes, you represent that you reside in a jurisdiction where our services are legally available and that you are not subject to any local prohibition on online wagering. You further represent that you have verified this eligibility under your own jurisdiction's law before accessing our platform. We enforce this representation uniformly; users who misrepresent their jurisdiction or access our platform from a restricted location are subject to account closure and forfeiture of account balances.

Our service availability changes as local regulations evolve. We may suspend or terminate access to users in any jurisdiction at any time if local law changes or if we determine that continued operation in that jurisdiction exposes us to legal or compliance risk. Such suspension is final; we do not refund or transfer balances when access is terminated due to jurisdiction restriction.

Account eligibility and user obligations on forbes

All users on our forbes platform must be of legal age in their jurisdiction. You represent that you have reached the age of majority in your country of residence. We do not verify age through third-party services; age verification relies on user declaration and identity documents submitted during account setup.

You may not open a forbes account if you are subject to court order, regulatory prohibition, or legal sanction that restricts your ability to participate in online wagering. You may not use our platform on behalf of minors, incapacitated persons, or third parties. You remain solely responsible for ensuring your account access complies with local law.

If you are located in Jakarta, Surabaya, Bandung, or Medan, you remain responsible for verifying that your local city or provincial regulations permit access to our platform. Regulatory restrictions may vary by region within Indonesia. We recommend checking local ordinances before joining forbes.

User responsibility for legal compliance

Users are solely responsible for verifying that their access to our forbes platform complies with the laws of their own jurisdiction. We provide our platform as a service available only where permitted; we do not advise users on local law compliance. We do not review user jurisdiction, confirm regulatory status, or provide legal guidance on participation eligibility.

You acknowledge that online wagering may be subject to taxation, licensing restrictions, or other regulatory requirements in your jurisdiction. You remain responsible for understanding and complying with these requirements. We do not calculate tax liability, withhold tax, or report your account activity to tax authorities on your behalf — these obligations rest entirely with you.
