Reading this document
In this document we use the term ‘component’ to refer to software that is run by (executed) or data that is stored on a piece of equipment. A component fulfils a specific purpose (for example, an RNG is a component that generates random numbers); a piece of equipment may host one or more components.
Under the heading “Facilities for gambling and remote gambling equipment” we provide guidance on and specific examples of the Commission’s interpretation of whether equipment storing certain components or data is used in the provision of facilities for gambling.
Under the heading ‘Remote gambling equipment’ we provide a table and list those components and data that are stored on equipment that we believe meet the definition set out in the Act.
In order to set the components into context this document also contains a gambling system overview, a component glossary and a number of high-level diagrams.
Previous pageThe diagrams are not intended to describe any particular gambling system nor do they define the way a gambling system should be implemented.
