(1) Lifetime;
(2) Five years;
(3) One year.
(c) The Director shall establish procedures for placements on and removals from the list of self-excluded persons and procedures for the transmittal to operators of a video lottery facility of identifying information concerning self-excluded persons.
(d) The Director shall require licensed agents of video lottery facilities to establish procedures designed to:
(1) Prevent self-excluded persons from engaging in any gaming activity;
(2) Remove them from any forms of advertising or promotions; and
(3) Deny self-excluded persons access to credit, complimentaries, check cashing privileges, and similar benefits.
(e) The list of self-excluded persons shall be confidential and not open to public inspection under Chapter 100 of this title.
(f) A licensed video lottery agent and the directors, officers and employees of a video lottery agent shall not be liable to any self-excluded person or any other party in any judicial proceeding for any harm, monetary or otherwise, that may arise as a result of the failure of the video lottery facility to withhold gaming privileges to a self-excluded person.
(g) A licensed video lottery agent and the directors, officers and employees of a licensed video lottery agent shall not be liable to any self-excluded person or any other party in any judicial proceeding for any harm, monetary or otherwise, which may arise as a result of disclosure in any manner, other than a wilfully unlawful disclosure, of the identity of any self-excluded person.
