888starz is not the owner of companies separately licensed by Curacao eGaming or any other regulatory authority, and it does not manage, supervise, or control those entities in any capacity.

The platform holds no financial interests, equity stakes, or managerial roles in any third-party licensed companies that may share regulatory frameworks or jurisdictional registration. It has no authority to influence the operational or management decisions of those companies, and it bears no legal or financial responsibility for any actions, omissions, or regulatory violations attributed to them. Any disputes, complaints, or legal claims relating to those companies must be directed to the relevant company itself or to the appropriate regulatory authority, not to 888starz.

A digital licence verification system is available to allow users to confirm the current status and authenticity of the 888starz gaming licence at any time.

This tool functions as an official status-check mechanism linked to the issuing regulator’s records, and it reflects the live validity of the licence in real terms. All texts, images, seals, logos, and other materials displayed within the verification system are the exclusive intellectual property of the Curacao eGaming authority. This content is fully protected under applicable copyright law, and any commercial or non-commercial use by third parties is strictly prohibited. Unauthorised reproduction, redistribution, or misuse of verification materials may result in civil or criminal penalties under the relevant jurisdiction.

All trademarks, logos, service marks, and commercial identifiers appearing on the 888starz website and mobile applications are protected assets belonging to the licence holder or the relevant regulatory authority, and they may not be used without prior written authorisation.

Ownership of these protected elements rests exclusively with the designated rights holders, and protection extends beyond formally registered trademarks to cover trade dress, visual brand elements, and other brand-style identifiers associated with the platform. Unauthorised use of any trademark or brand identifier, in any format or medium, is prohibited under applicable intellectual property law. Violations may result in legal liability, including claims for damages and injunctive relief.
