COMPETITION GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
1. THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS
1.1 These terms and conditions (which we will refer to as our "General Terms") are the overarching general terms and conditions that apply to all the competitions promoted by Bauer Consumer Media Limited and its group companies, including particularly the on-air competitions run by the radio stations controlled by Bauer Radio Limited. We refer to all these competitions as the "Competitions" in these General Terms.
1.2 Each Competition will also have its own specific terms and conditions (such as the details of how to enter, what the opening/closing dates are and what sort of prize you may win). These Competition-specific terms and conditions will be made available to readers or listeners by means of the relevant media as part of the on-air or in-print promotion of the particular Competition. In these General Terms, we will refer to these Competition-specific terms and conditions as the "Specific Terms".
1.3 You should therefore read these General Terms in combination with the relevant set of Specific Terms. Where the Specific Terms conflict with these General Terms, the Specific Terms will take precedence.
1.4 We may change these General Terms at any time. You should check our website regularly for any changes which will apply from the date that they are uploaded.
1.5 By entering any Competition you agree that you will be legally bound by these General Terms and also any applicable Specific Terms.
2. IDENTITY OF THE PROMOTER OF THE COMPETITION
2.1 The "promoter" of a Competition is the person who is legally responsible for running it. This person is the person whom you should contact in the first place if you have any issues or problems in relation to a Competition. Unless any Specific Terms tell you otherwise (e.g. radio Competitions may be promoted by Bauer Radio Limited as Promoter), the promoter of the Competitions will be Bauer Consumer Media Limited ("the Promoter").
2.2 Bauer Media Limited is a company registered in England and Wales. Our registered office is at 1 Lincoln Court, Lincoln Road, Peterborough, England, PE1 2RF and you can write to us at that address if you have any concern in relation to any of our Competitions, setting out clearly the name of the Competition and your issue.
2.3 In addition, specific Competitions may provide entrants with the contact details for the specific part of our business that is running the Competition, for example the contact details of the relevant magazine or radio station. In these cases, you should contact these people first.
3. ELIGIBILITY RULES FOR OUR COMPETITIONS
Unless stated otherwise, entrants to our Competitions must be aged 18 or over and resident in the UK. We reserve the right to require that the parent or guardian of any person aged 18 or less confirms in writing that they agree to be bound by these terms and conditions and will accept any prize on behalf of an under-18 prize winner.
Certain Competitions may have additional eligibility requirements, such as valid passports, visas, driving licences, good physical health and so on. Any such additional eligibility requirements will be stated in the Specific Terms covering the relevant Competition.
Where Competitions are open to children (aged 15 or younger) and/or young persons (aged 16 or 17), the age requirements will be stated in the Specific Terms covering the relevant Competition.
It will be our 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.
Employees of the Promoter and their immediate families may not enter any Competition: neither may the employees of any third party prize providers or their immediate families.
4. ENTRY AND ENTRY METHODS
4.1 Premium rates: Competition entry may be by premium rate landline or mobile texts or calls. Your network provider may also charge varying amounts for these types of call and so the cost of your call may be more than as stated by us. In all cases you should check with your network provider. You should note that invalid or unsuccessful entries made via these methods may still be charged. In all cases, you should have the bill payer's permission to enter using a premium rate method. Where entry is by telephone, entries that are submitted before lines open or after lines close will not be entered in the Competition but we cannot guarantee that entrants will not be charged for the call or text made.
4.2 By telephone: Where entry is by telephone, the Competition lines will be opened and closed at the times stated in the Specific Terms. Entries must be received after the opening time and before the closing time. Entries that are submitted before lines open or after lines close will not be entered in the Competition but we cannot guarantee that entrants will not be charged for the call or text made.
4.3 SMS: Where a Competition asks you to enter using SMS, you will need an SMS compatible mobile phone with an account with a service provider that permits text messages to our premium rate number. SMS entries are deemed to be received when we receive them in our database, not when they are sent from your handset. SMS entries must be addressed to the correct number or shortcode and must include the correct keywords or other answer format as required by the specific Competition. Entries which fail to do so will be void.
4.4 PhonePayPlus: We will always comply with the PhonePayPlus code of conduct in relation to premium rate competitions. PhonePayPlus is the UK regulator of premium rate services and you can access their details here: http://www.phonepayplus.org.uk/output/default.aspx
4.5 Deficient entries: In all Competitions, we reserve the right to reject any entries that are inaudible, incomplete, incomprehensible, damaged or otherwise deficient. We also reserve the right to reject entries that are unlawful, indecent, racist, inflammatory, defamatory or which we consider to be otherwise harmful to the goodwill and reputation of our brand that is running the Competition in question. We accept no responsibility for any late, lost or misdirected entries including but not limited to texts, calls or emails not received due to technical disruptions, network congestion or any other reason. Proof of posting of any postal entry will not be proof of our receipt of that entry.
On-Air Competitions: If in the course of a telephone call related to participation or entry in any on-air Competition, the telephone line drops out or breaks up, we may proceed to another caller. In such event, we will not be responsible for the awarding of any prize to the caller whose line dropped out or broke up, for whatever reason. In addition, if a contestant or winner cannot be contacted by us to participate or enter any on-air Competition (including where a third party answers the telephone on the contestant or winner’s behalf) we reserve the right to disqualify that person and to select a replacement contestant or winner (whichever is applicable).
Automated Entry: The use of any automated entry software or any other mechanical or electronic means that permits any person to enter any Competition repeatedly is prohibited.
Names: Entrants must enter Competitions using their legal names. We reserve the right to disqualify any entrant who uses multiple names and to require them to return any prize they may have won.
Multiple Entries. Unless otherwise permitted pursuant to any Specific Terms, no person may enter any Competition 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.
Prize Limits. No person or persons at the same residential address may win more than one prize valued at £500 or more via any of our Competitions in any six (6) month period.
Retrospective Effect. Where an entrant or prizewinner has been found to be in breach of any of the terms and conditions of a Competition and in particular where a person is in breach of the entry restrictions set out in rules 4.8 to 4.10 above, we 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 been awarded and/or actually provided to the entrant or prizewinner in question.
PRIZES
5.1 The prize for each Competition will be as stated in the Specific Terms. We reserve in all cases the right to replace the stated prizes with prizes that we consider to be of broadly equivalent value. We offer no cash alternative for non-cash prizes and prize winners must accept prizes in the form offered. Where a prize is won by a person younger than 18, we reserve the right to award the prize to the prizewinner's parent or guardian on behalf of the prizewinner.
5.2 All prize winners will be notified that they have won a prize within twenty eight (28) days of the closing date of the Competition via at least one of the following methods:
(a) on air at the time of winning (in the case of on-air Competitions);
(b) by telephone;
(c) in writing.
5.3 Prizes will be despatched to the winners via the UK mail service, unless otherwise stated. We will not be liable for any prizes which are lost, delayed, or damaged in the post for reasons beyond our control.
5.4 Prizes will only be delivered to an address within the UK. Should a prize winner's contact details change, it is their responsibility to notify us or the contact persons set out in the Specific Terms applicable to the Competition.
5.5 We reserve the right to request proof of a prize winner's identity in the form of a passport or driver’s licence and proof of address in the form of a utility bill. In the event that a prize winner cannot provide us with proof of identity reasonably acceptable to us, we may withdraw the prize and select another prize winner.
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 in the relevant Specific Terms. Third party suppliers of prizes may also often stipulate their own terms, conditions or restrictions and all prize winners agree to be bound by these. 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 winner. No cash will be awarded in lieu of that prize or part of it.
Any tax payable as a result of a prize being awarded or received will be the responsibility of the winner. Winners should seek independent financial advice prior to accepting a prize if this is a concern.
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 you in relation to any prize, its fitness for purposes, merchantability or otherwise. We reserve the right to disqualify entrants from entering our Competitions or prizewinners from receiving their prizes where any such person engages in unsafe, illegal, unsociable or inappropriate behaviour.
All stated prize values are at the supplier's recommended retail price in pounds sterling and are correct at the time of printing. We take no responsibility for any fluctuations in prize values. We award cash prizes in the form of a cheque in the name of the prizewinner. Any other arrangement will be at our discretion.
No additional, further or other costs or expenses are included in any prize unless stated. For example, the costs of transport to and from a venue or an event are not included and any accommodation prize includes basic room charge only.
Third party suppliers of prizes may also often stipulate their own terms, conditions or restrictions and all prize winners agree to be bound by these. Subject to paragraph 19.2, we shall have no liability in relation to any prize provided by a third party provider.
6. HOLIDAY PRIZES
Because of their complexity, we have certain special terms that apply to holiday prizes. These are set out in this paragraph 6 below. Where holiday prizes include a place for a travelling companion (i.e. a holiday for the prize winner plus guest) then these terms also apply to those persons.
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) 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. Unless stated otherwise, holiday prizes consist of flights and accommodation only.
Holiday prizes do not include airport departure or government taxes. These must be paid by the prize winner and any travelling companion.
The prize winner and any travelling companions 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. 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 travelling companions. 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.
All holiday prizes must be taken within six (6) months of the closing date of the relevant Competition or the prize will lapse.
It is the responsibility of the prize winner and any travelling companions (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 travelling companions (if applicable) arising out of their failure to follow any travel advisories issued by the Government.
The prize winner and their travelling companions (if applicable) must comply with and are responsible for obtaining any inoculation and health regulations required by any holiday prize destination country.
We will not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage suffered by any prize winner or their travelling companion (if applicable) should any prize winner or their travelling companion (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. In particular, we shall have no obligation to substitute any alternative prize, cash equivalent or other compensation where a prize winner and/or their travelling companion (if applicable) fail to redeem a holiday prize for any reason.
Prize winners and their travelling companions 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.
Where the United States of America is a holiday prize destination, the prize winner and any travelling companion will be required to apply for an Electronic System for Travel Authorisation (ESTA). Applications must be submitted no later than three (3) days prior to the departure date. Should this form not be lodged by both the winner and within this time, they will be ineligible to enter the United States of America and will therefore forfeit their holiday prize.Breeze, Fresh air, Big trees swaying, No more rainy days, Beautiful.0
