Rule 3770:2-8-02 | Application to participate in the Ohio voluntary exclusion program.
(A) Ohio VEP applications will be available for completion at all Ohio video lottery terminal facilities, casino facilities, and the online Ohio VEP portal. If an individual is unable to appear in person at any of these facilities to complete an application and unable to utilize the online portal, the individual may contact staff from the Ohio lottery commission or the Ohio casino control commission during regular business hours to make alternative arrangements to complete the application.
(B) No application will be accepted if it is not completed in the presence of either commission's staff or through the online Ohio VEP portal.
(C) As part of the Ohio VEP application, the individual will select the duration of their participation in the Ohio VEP. An individual may select any of the following time periods as a length of exclusion:
(1) A minimum of one year;
(2) A minimum of five years; or
(3) Lifetime exclusion subject to paragraph (C) of rule 3770:2-8-05 of the Administrative Code.
(D) If an individual completing the Ohio VEP application, in the presence of an Ohio lottery commission investigator or Ohio casino control commission agent, appears to be doing so involuntarily or while impaired, their application will be rejected.
(E) After an individual's Ohio VEP application has been processed, delivery of written confirmation of their participation in the Ohio VEP will be attempted. Failure of delivery of the notification does not negate the individual's participation in the Ohio VEP.
