Each Game is also subject to its own specific set of terms and conditions (dates, prize details, special eligibility criteria, etc.), which can be found on the Specific Rules page under the heading for the Game that you are playing ("Specific Rules")
The Games on Bally Play are all administered and (unless otherwise stated in the applicable Specific Rules) sponsored by BALLY’S INTERACTIVE LLC (a Delaware limited liability company and having an address at 100 Westminster Street, Suite 100, Providence, RI 02903) (“we”, “us”, “our”). Unless otherwise stated in the Specific Rules, we will also be the prize provider.
These General Rules, the Specific Rules and the Bally Play website terms of use available at https://ballyplay.com/en/terms-and-conditions (“Terms of Use”) together form the entire agreement between us and each person that participates in a Game (“you” or “Participant”), the Bally Play user.
