Free Entry Route Rules

Principle

Where IVAWIN offers a free-entry route for a competition, the free-entry route must be clear, accessible and capable of giving accepted free entries the same chance of winning as paid entries in the same competition.

Free entry method

Unless a competition page states otherwise, free entries must be submitted by post to:

IVAWIN Free Entry, SPARRED LTD, 9 Byford Court Crockatt Road, Hadleigh, Ipswich, Suffolk, IP7 6RD

Each free entry must be sent separately. IVAWIN may reject bulk entries, entries sent together in the same envelope, entries delivered by hand, incomplete entries, late entries or entries that do not follow these rules.

What the entrant must include

Each free-entry submission should include:

• competition title or competition ID
• full name
• date of birth
• email address
• telephone number
• postal address
• answer to any competition question, if applicable
• statement confirming acceptance of IVAWIN terms, competition rules and privacy policy
• optional publicity preference, if relevant

Deadline

Free entries must be received before the competition closing date/time. Postal delays are the entrant's responsibility. IVAWIN is not required to confirm whether a free entry has arrived unless the entry is accepted and allocated.

Account requirement

If IVAWIN requires an account to allocate and view entry numbers, the free-entry submission must include the same email address used for the entrant's IVAWIN account. If no account exists, IVAWIN may create a basic account or ask the entrant to create one before allocation.

Equal treatment

Accepted free entries will be allocated entry/ticket numbers and entered into the draw in the same way as accepted paid entries.

Rejection reasons

A free entry may be rejected if it is:

• late
• incomplete
• illegible
• bulk-submitted
• submitted for another person
• submitted using false details
• not linked to a valid competition
• from an ineligible entrant
• abusive, fraudulent or non-compliant
• received after sell-out/closure where the rules state no further entries can be accepted
