ESPN Enterprises, LLC has posted an expanded set of legal and gaming notices alongside its 2026 NBA free-agency preview, which outlines how each of the league’s 30 franchises can approach the coming offseason.
The document reiterates ESPN’s Terms of Use and Privacy Policy, highlights U.S. state privacy rights, and directs readers to resources such as the Children’s Online Privacy Policy, Interest-Based Ads information, Nielsen Measurement details, and the Disney Ad Sales site. Contact information and a corrections link are also provided.
Responsible gaming occupies a prominent section. ESPN lists help lines including 1-800-GAMBLER or 1-800-MY-RESET, 800-327-5050 in Massachusetts, 877-8-HOPENY (text HOPENY to 467369) in New York, 888-789-7777 and ccpg.org in Connecticut, mdgamblinghelp.org in Maryland, and 1-800-981-0023 in Puerto Rico. The company reminds users that betting is restricted to adults 21 and older in most jurisdictions, with an 18-plus minimum in the District of Columbia, Kentucky, New Hampshire, Puerto Rico, and Wyoming.
The notice adds that wagering is void in Ontario and that additional eligibility rules may apply. DraftKings is identified as the sportsbook partner, operating on behalf of Boot Hill Casino in Kansas, and Illinois residents are advised that a pass-through tax could be added to each wager.
The update concludes with a 2026 copyright statement declaring all rights reserved by ESPN Enterprises, LLC.
