Terms of Use overview
These Terms of Use apply to Southern Odds Guide, an independent informational affiliate website for Australian adults aged 18 or over. By using this website, visitors agree to use it only for lawful, personal and informational purposes.
Southern Odds Guide is not BearBet. The site does not accept wagers, does not open betting accounts, does not process deposits or withdrawals, does not set odds and does not settle bets. Any wagering-related activity occurs only on BearBet or another licensed external website after a visitor chooses to leave this site.
If a visitor does not agree with these terms, they should stop using the website. The final website owner should review these terms before publication and adjust them to match the actual business entity, contact details, analytics setup and legal requirements.
18+ and Australian audience
The website is intended only for users who are at least 18 years old and located in Australia. The 18+ age-gate is an informational access prompt and is not a formal identity verification system.
Visitors are responsible for understanding whether it is lawful for them to access gambling-related information in their location. Anyone under 18 must not use the site, click affiliate links or attempt to create wagering accounts.
Content must not be interpreted as encouraging anyone to gamble. The responsible gambling message shown across the site is part of the terms of use: gamble responsibly. Chances are you're about to lose.
Information only, not advice
Content on Southern Odds Guide is provided for general information. It may describe BearBet features, sports markets, racing coverage, payments, app access, existing-customer promotions and responsible gambling tools. This content is not financial advice, legal advice, gambling advice or a recommendation to place a wager.
Gambling involves risk and losses are a normal outcome. Visitors should not treat wagering as income, a way to solve financial problems or a measure of skill, status or success. If gambling is causing pressure, visitors should consider using limits, taking a break, registering with BetStop or contacting a support service.
Before relying on any operator details, visitors should check the current information directly with BearBet, including terms, eligibility rules, payment limits, verification requirements, market availability and responsible gambling settings.
Accuracy, availability and changes
We aim to keep the site accurate and useful, but information can change without notice. Operator details, licence information, app availability, payment methods, withdrawal timeframes, support channels, promotions and website features may be updated by BearBet at any time.
Southern Odds Guide may update, remove or reorganise pages without notice. The site may also be unavailable because of maintenance, hosting issues, network problems or third-party service interruptions.
Footer placeholders for legal entity, licence authority and licence number must be replaced after the publisher checks the official BearBet footer or Terms and Conditions. Do not publish placeholders as final legal facts.
Affiliate disclosure
Southern Odds Guide may receive a commission if a visitor clicks an affiliate link and later completes a qualifying action on BearBet. Affiliate relationships may influence which operator is covered, but they should not override accuracy, responsible gambling messaging or clear disclosures.
Affiliate links are marked through buttons and external links such as "Visit BearBet". Visitors do not pay a direct fee to Southern Odds Guide for clicking these links. Any account, payment, verification or wagering relationship is between the visitor and BearBet.
The site should not claim that BearBet is the best bookmaker, guarantee outcomes or suggest that a visitor can win because they use a particular operator.
Promotions and existing customers
Promotional content on this website is intended only for existing BearBet customers where applicable. The site should not advertise welcome bonuses, sign-up bonuses, free bets for joining or similar inducements that are not permitted for Australian wagering advertising.
Promotions can be subject to eligibility rules, time limits, minimum odds, excluded markets, payment conditions and other terms. Visitors must read the current BearBet Terms and Conditions before participating in any promotion.
Southern Odds Guide does not control whether a visitor is eligible for a promotion and cannot apply, extend, reinstate or pay promotional benefits.
Acceptable use
Visitors must not misuse the website. This includes attempting to interfere with security, scrape content at scale, copy the site for misleading purposes, submit spam through forms, impersonate another person, or use the site in a way that breaches law or harms other users.
Visitors must not use the site to request account-specific BearBet support, submit sensitive identity documents, ask for betting credit, or attempt to place wagers. Such requests should be directed to BearBet through official support channels.
External links and third-party services
The site includes external links to BearBet, BetStop, help services, app stores and other resources. External websites are controlled by their own operators and have their own terms, privacy policies, security practices and eligibility rules.
Southern Odds Guide is not responsible for external website content, outages, account decisions, payment processing, app store availability, market suspension, bet settlement, verification outcomes or support responses.
Links to support services are provided for convenience and responsible gambling awareness. In urgent situations, visitors should contact emergency or crisis services directly.
Intellectual property
The site design, text, layout, graphics and code are owned by the site publisher or used under licence, except for third-party trademarks and references. BearBet and related names belong to their respective owners. Use of a brand name for review or identification does not imply ownership or endorsement.
Visitors may read and share links to the website for personal use. They must not copy substantial parts of the site, remove disclosures, republish pages as their own, or use the content in a misleading commercial context without permission.
Limitation of responsibility
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Southern Odds Guide is not liable for losses arising from reliance on website content, external links, operator changes, wagering decisions, account restrictions, payment delays, technical errors or unavailable services.
Nothing in these terms is intended to exclude consumer rights or legal protections that cannot be excluded under applicable law. If any part of these terms is invalid, the remaining sections continue to apply.
Contact and updates
Questions about these terms can be sent through the Contact page. The terms may be updated when the site structure, affiliate arrangements, legal details or compliance requirements change.
