    Don't tick the box for third party sharing, then there isn't a problem.

    They do sometimes make you sign up for their newsletter to enter the competition, but that's not unusual, others do the same. Bit of a pain but not a huge issue.
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    I enter all the shortlist comps & never have had
    any phone calls from them &/or probs from them,
    as elsien says make sure you check the tick boxes :)
    please be a responsible pet owner & spay/neuter your pets, too many strays & not enough homes for them sadly. k2u58ioz4c8e.png
