PROMOTION TERMS AND CONDITIONS

SPECIFIC TERMS

A reference to “Specific Terms” means the specific terms and conditions relating to a particular promotion as shown in conjunction with the advertising or promotional materials.

You can always contact us to request an additional copy of the Specific Terms.

GENERAL TERMS

  1. These General Terms shall apply in conjunction with the Specific Terms of any promotion. You should therefore read these General Terms in combination with the Specific Terms. Where any Specific Terms conflict with these General Terms, the Specific Terms will take precedence.
  2. We may change these General Terms at any time. You should check our website regularly for any changes that apply from the date they are uploaded.
  3. By entering any promotion you agree that you will be legally bound by both these General Terms and the Specific Terms.

Eligibility rules

  1. All promotions are open to persons over 18 years of age at the time of entry. Where the Specific Terms state that a person aged 18 years or less is eligible to enter, we reserve the right to require that their parent or guardian confirms in writing that they agree to be bound by these terms and conditions and will accept any prize on behalf of the under-18 year old prize winner.
  2. It will be at the Promoters sole decision as to whether any eligibility requirement has or has not been met and we may require evidence or confirmation from entrants before awarding prizes.
  3. Employees of the Promoter and their immediate families may not enter any promotion, neither may any employees or immediate family members of any third party sponsors, third party companies associated with the promotion, prize providers or agencies assisting with the promotion operation.

Entry

  1. In promotions where purchase of product is necessary, please retain your promotional packaging or receipts as it may be required for verification in the event of a win.
  2. Deficient entries: the Promoter will not be responsible for any entries not received, not recognised, not accepted for any reason or delayed. Proof of sending or entering such details does not constitute receipt.
  3. The Promoter assumes no responsibility for any error, omission, interruption, deletion, defect, delay in operation or transmission, communications line failure, theft or destruction of or unauthorized access to, or alteration of, or non-receipt of, entries. The Promoter is not responsible for any problems or technical malfunction of any telephone network or lines, computer on-line systems, servers, or providers, computer equipment, software, failure of any e-mail, text message or entry to be received by the Promoter or an entrant because of technical problems, operator problems, social media site problems, traffic congestion on the Internet or at any website, or any combination thereof, including any injury or damage to any participant's or any other third person's, resulting from any participation or downloading any materials in the promotion.
  4. Automated Entry: the use of any automated entry software or any other mechanical or electronic means that permits any person to enter any promotion repeatedly is prohibited. No bulk, consumer group or third party entries will be accepted. These entries will be disqualified.
  5. Names: entrants must enter promotions using their full legal name. We reserve the right to disqualify any entrant who uses an alias, multiple names or any false names and to require them to return to the Promoter any prize they may have won.
  6. Multiple Entries: Unless otherwise permitted by the Specific Terms, no person may enter any promotion more than once and persons may not enter or participate as part of a syndicate or on behalf of any other person, syndicate, group, society or company.
  7. Retrospective Effect: where an entrant or prize winner has not complied fully with the Specific Terms or these General Terms, or has been found to be in breach of any of the terms and conditions of a promotion and in particular where a person is in breach of the entry restrictions, the Promoter may nevertheless still enforce our right to disqualify that person and require the return or reimbursement to us of any prize even where a prize has already been awarded and/or actually provided to the entrant or prize winner in question.
  8. No fees shall be payable to any entrant in relation to their entry in any promotion. This includes obtaining time off work and/or study or related activities to participate in a promotion and/or use a prize. All related costs/time off will be at the sole and absolute responsibility of each entrant or person using the prize.

Prizes

  1. The Promoter reserves the right in all cases to replace the stated prizes with prizes that we consider to be of broadly equivalent value. There is no cash alternative for non-cash prizes and prize winners must accept prizes in the form offered. Where a prize is validly won by a person younger than 18, we reserve the right to award the prize to the prize winner's parent or guardian on behalf of the prize winner.
  2. The flavour, type, format, colour, style, size and model of the prize will be the decision of the Promoter unless stated otherwise. Any pictures depicting the prizes on any media or promotional material are for depiction purposes only and in certain instances the actual prizes may differ. The promotion does not constitute an endorsement or recommendation of the products or services being offered as prizes.
  3. The Promoter will not be liable for any prizes which are lost, delayed, or damaged in the post for reasons beyond our control.
  4. Where prizes are to be delivered to the personal address of a prize winner, the prize will only be delivered to an address within the UK (or ROI if the promotion is available to residents in that territory) and will only be sent once. Should a prize winner's contact details change, it is their responsibility to notify us or the contact persons for the relevant promotion.
  5. We reserve the right to request proof of a prize winner's identity in the form of a passport or driver’s license, proof of residence and proof of address in the form of a utility bill. In the event that a prize winner cannot provide us with the proofs mentioned above which are reasonably acceptable to the Promoter, we may withdraw the prize and select another prize winner in the same manner as the original prize winner.
  6. All prizes are subject to availability, non transferable and non exchangeable. Where prizes consist of entry tickets, attendance at events, holidays and similar time-specific benefits, they must be taken on the dates specified by us. If a prize winner does not take any element of a prize at the time stipulated by us (or any relevant third party prize provider) then that element of the prize will be forfeited by the prize winner and no replacement prize will be granted. No cash will be awarded in lieu of that prize or part of it.
  7. Any tax payable as a result of a prize being awarded or received will be the responsibility of the prize winner. Prize winners should seek independent financial advice prior to accepting a prize if this is a concern.
  8. Prize winners are responsible for obtaining any insurance which may be required or prudent in relation to any prize awarded to them. We make no representation or warranty in relation to prizes provided and to the fullest extent permitted by law we shall have no liability to the prize winner or any third party in relation to any prize, its fitness for purposes, merchantability or otherwise. We reserve the right to disqualify entrants from entering our promotions or prize winners from receiving their prizes where any such person engages in unsafe, illegal, unsociable or inappropriate behaviour.
  9. No additional, further or other costs or expenses are included in any prize unless expressly stated. For example, the costs of transport to and from a venue or an event, parking charges, gratuities, excursions, spending money and other costs of a personal nature, are not included, and any accommodation prize includes basic room charge only.
  10. Prizes will be awarded to prize winners within 30 days of acceptance of the Prize. Details of how the prizes will be delivered will be provided to the prize winner. In the event a prize winner does not receive their prize within 30 days they should contact us. If a prize winner does not do so, the Promoter reserves the right to not reissue the prize or limit its value.
  11. The Promoter shall make available information to show that a valid award of the prizes took place. Provided no objection is received, you may request a list of prize winners by contacting us. Prize winners may object to their surname or county of residence being published or request for the amount of information being published to be reduced as part of being awarded the prize or by contacting us. Without prejudice, we will provide the prize winner information to the Advertising Standards Authority on reasonable request.

Holiday Prizes

  1. Because of their complexity, we have certain additional terms that apply to holiday prizes. Where holiday prizes include a place for a travelling companion(s) (i.e. a holiday for the prize winner plus guest(s)) then these terms also apply to those persons.
  2. Unless otherwise stated, insurance is not provided as part of any holiday prize. It will be each prize winner’s and (if applicable) their travelling companion's responsibility to take out at their own cost all relevant insurance (including but not limited to health and travel insurance, insurance for theft, loss and damage to property) which may be required or prudent to be taken. All insurance, spending money and other expenses, unless otherwise stated, are costs for the prize winner and are not provided as part of any holiday prize.
  3. Unless otherwise stated, holiday prizes do not include any airport departure or government taxes. These must be paid by the prize winner and any travelling companion.
  4. Where the prize requires international travel, the prize winner and any guest(s) must have and maintain valid passports endorsed with all relevant visas and with expiry dates no less than six (6) months following the proposed dates of travel or such other duration as may be required by any relevant regulation. Prize winners and any guests (if applicable) must ensure that passports have sufficient blank pages to allow for travel. These passports, and their holders, must not be subject to any restrictions on their rights to travel to and from the applicable country or countries. Passport control and in-country authorities may reserve the right to refuse entry to prize winners and/or their guest(s). We shall not be responsible for ensuring your ability to travel to your holiday destination nor for any additional costs incurred should you be refused entry.
  5. Unless otherwise stated, all holiday prizes must be taken within six (6) months of the closing date of the relevant promotion or the prize will lapse. Also, all elements of the prize must be taken as part of the same trip.
  6. It is the responsibility of the prize winner and any guest(s) (if applicable) to check any travel advisories issued by the Government and determine whether they wish to accept the risk of travelling to the holiday destination. We will not be responsible for any loss or damage suffered by any prize winner and their guest(s) (if applicable) arising out of their failure to follow any travel advisories issued by the Government.
  7. The prize winner and their guest(s) (if applicable) must comply with and are responsible for obtaining any inoculation and health regulations required by any holiday prize destination country.
  8. The prize winner and their guest(s) (if applicable) must travel on the same flights in both directions, and the holiday prizes/flights are subject to hotel or airline terms and conditions.
  9. Once tickets have been issued, they are only valid for dates and times shown so travel must be taken at the stated times, no alternatives are available. Additional charges for name changes once confirmed will be at the costs of the prize winner.
  10. All transport tickets and hotel dates are subject to availability. A round trip flight is included as part of the prize. Check-in luggage for passengers will be at the cheapest standard T&C rate of each air carrier (size, weight, etc.).
  11. Guests of the prize winner (if applicable) must be over the age of 18 unless stated otherwise. Take note that where Promoter has indicated that guests may be below the age of 18 years of age, such guests must provide written parental consent to travel unless accompanied by their parent or legal guardian.
  12. If a booking is cancelled by the prize winner, no alternative tickets will be issued and for the avoidance of doubt, no compensation and/or refund and/or alternative prize will be provided by the Promoter.
  13. Prize winners are responsible for the behaviour of themselves and their guests whilst taking the Prize. The Promoter reserves the right in its absolute discretion to exclude the prize winner and/or guest from participation in the Prize if any party fails to comply with the directions of the Promoter, Airline or any companies associated with the Prize or the prize winner and/or guests act in a manner that is dangerous to themselves or to the public or is anti-social in any manner or which causes a disturbance or nuisance to others.
  14. The Promoter will not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage suffered by any prize winner or their guest (if applicable) should any prize winner or their guest (if applicable) not redeem a holiday prize as a result of any Government travel warning or advisory applicable to the destination country and/or countries or for any other failure on their part to travel. In particular, we shall have no obligation to substitute any alternative prize, cash equivalent or other compensation where a prize winner and/or their guest (if applicable) fail to redeem a holiday prize for any reason.
  15. Prize winners and their guest(s) must comply with the terms and limitations of airlines, other transport providers, and the venues involved in the provision of any holiday prize, including any insurance policy relating to the holiday. In particular, entrants must comply with all health and safety guidelines and instructions and all applicable legal and regulatory requirements.
  16. Travel restrictions may apply over peak seasons such as but not limited to Easter, Bank Holidays, Christmas and New Year.

Events Prizes

  1. Where the prize for any promotion involves the prize winner's attendance at (or tickets to) an event, the prize winner acknowledges that we are not liable or responsible if any part of the event is cancelled, varied or rescheduled for any reason. If this means that the prize winner (and/or any accompanying guests) cannot attend the relevant event, we shall be under no obligation to provide any cash or alternative tickets.
  2. Prize winners proposing to redeem prizes involving, or participating in any promotion where it involves, travel, stunts or physical challenges should notify us of any medical condition and we may at our absolute discretion require as a condition of entering the promotion or receiving the prize to:
    1. submit to a medical examination by a medical practitioner approved by us and obtain medical clearance to participate in the promotion and/or redeem the prize; and/or
    2. execute a legal document to exonerate us from liability in a form prescribed by us in order to participate further in the promotion and/or redeem the prize.
  3. Where prizes comprise or include "meet and greet" elements with celebrities, the prize may be subject to the availability of the celebrity in question and we will have no liability for any inability or failure of any prize winner to attend any "meet and greet" session offered on any date nor will we offer any alternative prize or cash alternative or compensation for such failure.

Unclaimed Prizes

  1. Unless otherwise stated, the prizes must be claimed within 5 days. In the event a prize is not claimed within this period, we reserve the right to award the prize to an alternative prize winner or not to award them at all.
