D. This chapter does not apply to event wagering conducted exclusively on Indian lands as that term is defined in the Indian gaming regulatory act (P.L. 100-497; 102 Stat. 2467) by an Indian tribe operated in accordance with a tribal-state gaming compact and any amendments. For purposes of this chapter, event wagering is conducted exclusively on Indian lands only if the individual who places the wager is physically present on Indian lands when the wager is initiated, received or otherwise made on equipment that is physically located on Indian lands, and the wager is initiated, received or otherwise made in conformity with the safe harbor requirements as provided in 31 United States Code section 5362(10)(c). An event wagering operator may not accept any wager if the individual who places the wager is physically present on Indian lands when the wager is initiated.
E. A person may not provide or make available event wagering devices in a place of public accommodation in this state, including a club or other association, to enable individuals to place wagers except as provided by this chapter. This subsection does not apply to an event wagering operator aggregating, providing or making available event wagering devices within its own event wagering facility.

Only an event wagering operator or its management services provider may process, accept, offer or solicit wagers. The event wagering operator must clearly display its own brand or that of an affiliate on the event wagering platform that it uses. The event wagering operator, in its sole discretion, may also elect to have the brand of the management services provider that it uses be the name and logos of the event wagering platform provider if the event wagering platform also clearly displays the event wagering operator's own trademarks and logos or those of an affiliate.
H. An owner, operator, promoter or Indian tribe that qualifies for an event wagering operator license and appoints a designee to be licensed as an event wagering operator is not responsible for the conduct of its designee.
