Terms and Conditions

This page sets out the terms and conditions that govern your use of familycenterforautism.org (referred to throughout as "this site," "we," or "us"). By accessing any page on this site, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site. These terms apply to all visitors, regardless of how they found us.

We update these terms periodically. The date shown at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the site after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.

What This Site Is and Is Not

familycenterforautism.org is an independent comparison and review website. We research, evaluate, and present information about sweepstakes casinos and social casino platforms available to players in the United States. We do not operate any casino, accept wagers, hold player funds, or process any gaming transactions.

Nothing on this site constitutes legal advice, financial advice, or gambling advice. The information we publish is intended to help readers make informed decisions about which sweepstakes platforms to explore. Sweepstakes casinos operate under a promotional sweepstakes model — not traditional real-money gambling — but availability, terms, and legal status vary significantly by state. Readers are responsible for verifying that any platform they choose to use is available and permitted in their jurisdiction before signing up.

Affiliate Relationships and Editorial Independence

This site earns revenue through affiliate relationships. When a reader clicks a link or button on this site and subsequently registers with a sweepstakes casino platform, we may receive a commission from that platform. This applies to all offers shown on the site, including those displayed in ranked listings.

We want to be direct about how this works:

• Commercial relationships do not determine rankings. Our editorial team assesses platforms against a consistent set of criteria — game variety, redemption process, welcome offers and their conditions, daily reward structures, platform reliability, and user experience. A higher commission does not earn a platform a higher position.
• Platforms we have affiliate arrangements with are marked with offers and calls to action. The presence of a button or link indicates a commercial relationship may exist.
• We do not accept payment to write favourable reviews, and we do not suppress negative findings because a platform is a commercial partner.
• Our review methodology is described in more detail on our best sweepstakes casinos guide, where we explain the factors we weigh for each platform.

Readers should treat our content as independent editorial guidance that is commercially supported — not as impartial consumer testing free of any financial relationship. We believe transparency about this is more useful than pretending the relationship does not exist.

Accuracy of Information

We make every reasonable effort to ensure the information published on this site is accurate and current at the date shown. Sweepstakes casino offers, terms, eligible states, and platform features change frequently. Specific details — including welcome bonuses, coin quantities, redemption thresholds, and excluded states — are set by each operator and are subject to change without notice to us.

Before taking any action based on information found on this site, readers should:

1. Visit the platform's own website and read its current terms and conditions.
2. Confirm that the platform is available in their state of residence.
3. Check that any welcome offer is still active and that they meet the eligibility requirements.
4. Review the operator's redemption terms, including minimum thresholds and identity verification requirements.

We do not guarantee that any information on this site is complete, error-free, or up to date at the exact moment you read it. We accept no liability for decisions made in reliance on content that has since changed.

The Sweepstakes Model — What Readers Should Understand

Because this site covers sweepstakes casinos specifically, it is worth stating clearly what that means and what it does not mean.

Sweepstakes casinos operate under a promotional sweepstakes model. They typically offer two types of virtual currency:

• Gold Coins (or equivalent): Used for entertainment play only. They have no cash value and cannot be redeemed for prizes.
• Sweepstakes Coins (or equivalent): Earned through promotional activity and — where permitted — redeemable for prizes, including cash equivalents, subject to the operator's terms.

No purchase is necessary to participate. Legitimate sweepstakes casino operators offer a free alternative method of entry (AMOE), which allows players to request Sweepstakes Coins without making any purchase. The availability of this option is a core feature of the legal model these platforms operate under in the US.

These platforms are not licensed online casinos. They do not operate under state gambling licences and are not regulated by gaming authorities in the same way that real-money online casinos are. Consumer protections differ accordingly. Readers in states where sweepstakes casinos are restricted or prohibited should not use these platforms.

Prize redemptions may be subject to federal and state income tax. Players who redeem prizes are responsible for understanding and meeting their own tax obligations. This site does not provide tax advice; consult a qualified tax professional or official IRS guidance if you have questions.

Eligibility and Age Requirements

The content on this site is intended for adults only. Sweepstakes casino platforms generally require users to be at least 18 years of age. Some operators set the minimum age at 21, either across all states or in specific jurisdictions where local rules or company policy require it. Age requirements are set by each operator; check the platform's own terms before registering.

Sweepstakes casinos are not available in all US states. Excluded states vary by operator and may change as laws and company policies evolve. It is the reader's responsibility to confirm availability in their state before signing up. This site does not confirm or guarantee that any listed platform is currently available to any individual reader.

Responsible Play

Even though sweepstakes casinos use virtual currency rather than direct wagering, the games are designed to replicate casino-style experiences. For some people, this can lead to behaviour patterns associated with problem gambling. We encourage all readers to play within their means, set time and spending limits, and to seek support if gaming stops being enjoyable.

Resources and guidance on managing your play are available on our responsible gambling page. If you are concerned about your own or someone else's relationship with gaming, please contact a recognised support organisation.
