When entering the competitions, you will sometimes be given the option to opt-in to receive marketing communications from the prize sponsor. This does not affect your entry into the competition and is completely optional. If you do opt-in to receive such information, your contact details will be passed to the prize sponsor for this purpose. During the process of entering, it is likely you will see advertising from companies not related to the competition. It is optional if you opt-in to receive any information relating to these offers. In some cases, you may be required to view a promotional video to complete your entry. Further information can be found here.
All competitions are free to enter. However, participants are expected to pay their own cost of connecting to the website.

A limit to the number of total entries per member allowed within a daily or weekly period (Monday 00:00 to Sunday 23:59) will also be set. The one entry per day can be increased by additional promotions such as (but not limited to) share and gain.
