There were also issues identified in how the company reports key events to the relevant authorities.
Beyond operational flaws, Lindar Media demonstrated lapses in ethical advertising, as evidenced by a promotional campaign featuring Spiderman—a character that may attract the interest of children. The company was also remiss in not making mandatory annual contributions to organizations focused on encouraging responsible gambling behavior.
