Except as otherwise set forth herein, no person shall in any manner place any account wager on behalf of an account holder, or otherwise directly or indirectly act as an intermediary, transmitter or agent in the placing of wagers for an account holder. The licensee is not prohibited from conducting account wagering through employees or agents. Nothing in §12021 is intended to prohibit the use of credit or debit cards or other means of electronic funds transfer, or the use of checks, money orders or negotiable orders of withdrawal.

C. Neither the licensee nor any officer, director, employee or agent of the licensee shall be responsible for any loss arising from the use of or access to a wagering account by any person or persons other than the account holder, except where the licensee or its employees or agents act without good faith or fail to exercise ordinary care.
