Alderney (British Channel Islands)

Description:
The Alderney Gambling Control Commission, which was established in May 2000, regulates eGambling on Alderney, the third largest of the Channel Islands. In the last few years, Alderney has succeeded to become a world-class eGambling jurisdiction, with strict conditions of license, well-defined technical and operational requirements, rigorous due diligence investigations of license's applicants and continual monitoring of licensees' operations.

In 2005, the States of Alderney has amended its regulations to permit licensed companies to locate server equipment in Guernsey. While Jersey is currently considering whether to allow online gambling operators to have a contingency Disaster Recovery facility in the island and be able to invoke these facilities for a limited period, if a disaster were to occur in their home jurisdiction.
