From the point of strict letter-of-the-law the casino has its ass covered, because the "exclusion" clause is listed. Obviously, the whole thing is specifically engineered to hoodwink even a sharp player into missing it, by listing apparently clear terms on the bonus page, and burying the vital exclusion clause deep in a practically unreadable and seemingly irrelevant "user end agreement". These are shabby, underhand tactics, obviously designed to ensure that anyone taking a bonus at the Tropez group will be unable to cash out a win, otherwise they would simply list the exclusions on the bonus page.

Playtech is basically taking the piss. They know they can do this with impunity because of the weight of affiliates listing all these clip-joints. "Casino Cautions" and Infopowa bulletins can be released, but these are nothing against the weight of the money-hungry, moral-empty affiliates. If you can hook up with casino that's found a neat way to void all winnings on a technicallity, as the Tropez group have, you're going to make a lot of easy cash.
