GENERAL PRIZE PROMOTION TERMS & CONDITIONS
- 1. Introduction
1.1 These are the general terms and conditions (“General Terms and Conditions”) which apply to any competition, prize draw or prize promotion which we may run, whether on our website(s), social media platform(s), on-air or otherwise (each is referred to as a “Promotion”).
1.2 These General Terms and Conditions may be amended from time to time and you should check this page for changes.
1.3 Each Promotion will have its own specific rules (“Specific Rules”) and by entering a Promotion you agree to be bound by these General Terms and Conditions along with the applicable Specific Rules (together, the “Promotion Terms and Conditions”). Specific Rules might include entry instructions and any other details, rules or conditions relating to a particular Promotion, and might be published on our or our Promotion Partners’ website, social media platforms, or may be found in any other media which features a Promotion. If any Specific Rules conflict with these General Terms and Conditions, the Specific Rules will prevail.
1.4 In the Promotion Terms and Conditions, “we”, “us”, “our”, and “Hot Radio” all mean Dorset Community Radio (registered company number: 5969796). Our address is 376 Ringwood Road Poole Dorset BH12 3LT.
- 2. Start and end date/time
2.1 Each Promotion will start immediately (i.e. as soon as it is first promoted), unless a later start date/time is specified. The closing date/time for a Promotion will be made clear in the Specific Rules or the relevant promotional materials. All times will be based on UK time.
- 3. Entering a Promotion
3.1 Unless the Specific Rules specify a different geographic region or a different minimum age, each Promotion will be open to individuals aged 18 or over (at the time of entry) who are UK residents and are based in the UK at the time of entering the Promotion. For the avoidance of doubt, the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man are not considered to be part of the UK for the purposes of the Promotion Terms and Conditions.
3.2 Where a Promotion is open to individuals younger than 18, the age requirements for the Promotion will be specified in the Specific Rules. We reserve the right to request parental or guardian permission for such individuals to enter and may require a release form to be signed.
3.3 Certain Promotions may have additional eligibility requirements, for example, they may be restricted to certain post codes. If applicable, these will be detailed in the Specific Rules .
3.4 Our employees, agencies, licensees , freelancers, contractors (and those of any of our Promotion Partners, associated companies or prize providers) and their immediate family members or households (whether related or not), and anyone else professionally involved with the relevant Promotion, are excluded from entering any and all of our Promotions (“Excluded Individual(s)”).
3.5 To enter, you must follow the entry process for the Promotion, which will usually be explained in the Specific Rules and/or promotional materials or announcements. We cannot guarantee entry for (and accept no responsibility for) entries which are mis-spelt, corrupt or ineligible, or for entries which haven’t reached us – for example, postal, telephone, text message, online or social media entries not received as a result of network incompatibility, technical faults or for any other reason. Entries received outside of the opening and closing times of the Promotion will not be accepted but may still be charged (for example, if a Promotion is being charged at a premium rate in accordance with the provisions at 3.10, or where your network provider charges a standard rate (see the provisions at 3.11 below).
3.6 When entering a Promotion you must provide us with your real name. In accordance with the provisions at 8.3 below, we may publish your name, nearest geographical location and other details. If you do not want your real name to be disclosed to the wider public, please let us know in advance. If you fail to provide us with your real name, you may be disqualified, at our discretion, and we reserve the right to select another entrant to participate in the Promotion or withdraw the prize and select another winner, as applicable.
3.7 If entry involves a live call in, or if the entry instructions in the Specific Rules require it, ensure you answer your telephone when we phone you. Someone else cannot answer the phone, participate or accept a prize on your behalf. If: (i) you fail to answer the phone; (ii) someone else answers the phone; (iii) the call goes to voicemail; (iv) the call becomes disconnected; (v) you are not (or do not seem to us to be) in a position to safely and/or lawfully take or remain on the call (for example, if you are or seem to be driving), or (vi) you are not audible or intelligible or we are not able to conduct a conversation with you in a manner that is suitable for broadcast for any reason beyond our control (including, but not limited to: low/no signal on your device, a call is dropped by any network, you are travelling, there is too much background noise or feedback, etc.); before or during the Promotion, you may be disqualified and we reserve the right to select another entrant to participate in the Promotion or withdraw the prize and select another winner, as applicable. Also, if you are a prize winner, we will only call you back on the same number – we will not call you back on a different number, so be sure to use your own, valid number. Failure to do so may result in disqualification or your forfeiting the prize.
3.8 Unless otherwise specified in the Specific Rules, you may only enter once or vote once (as applicable) for each Promotion and no bulk, automated, machine assisted, third party, syndicate or other group entries will be accepted. We will disqualify any entries which, in our reasonable opinion, appear to have used any of these entry methods, for example, entries or votes from the same IP address, email address, postal address, telephone number, or similar or entries which we, at our sole discretion but acting reasonably, consider to be suspicious or fraudulent. You may not enter a Promotion if you have been given the answer(s) or any other relevant information in relation to the Promotion, directly or indirectly by any Excluded Individual.
3.9 If you are ineligible to take part in the Promotion (e.g. because of age restrictions or previous exclusions), your entry cannot be transferred to anyone else. If we find out that you are ineligible to take part, you may be disqualified and we reserve the right to select another entrant to participate in the Promotion or withdraw the prize and select another winner, as applicable.
3.10 Unless otherwise specified, or unless a Promotion is being charged at a premium rate (see the provisions at 3.11 below), there is no additional charge to enter a Promotion. However, if entry is made via text message, MMS or telephone call, your network provider will usually charge according to their standard rate or deduct it from your allowance. Standard rate text messages to Promotion shortcodes are not normally included in ‘inclusive’ packages and may be charged. If entry is made by text message, be sure to use the correct shortcode; be aware that shortcodes change from Promotion to Promotion. In all cases, please check with your service provider for more details and charges. If you are not the bill payer, you must obtain the bill payer’s permission before entering. Dorset Community Radio Ltd takes no responsibility for your entry.
3.11 Participation in some of our Promotions may be charged at a premium rate; please refer to the on-air or online messages and the Specific Rules for details.
3.12 For any on-air Promotions, all timings including the closing time are as broadcast on the relevant station's FM broadcast frequency. If you are listening via an IP enabled device such as a smartphone or tablet, please remember that the stream can be slightly behind the FM broadcast due to differences in network speeds and/or the advertising we may serve to listeners on IP enabled devices and other factors. If a Promotion requires you to enter by a deadline dependent on an item in the broadcast (e.g. by the end of a song) we cannot take into account any delay from listening via an IP enabled device, and the deadline will be as on the FM broadcast. For podcasts and non-live broadcasts, note that the deadline will probably have passed, so check before entering For Promotions broadcast on DAB (or other form of broadcast) only (i.e. that are not broadcast on FM as well), the timings will be as specified in the DAB or other broadcast, as applicable.
- 4. Winner selection/notification
4.1 For each Promotion, there will be only one grand prize winner unless otherwise specified in the Specific Rules.
4.2 Unless otherwise specified in the Specific Rules:
In the case of a prize draw, winner(s) will be selected at random. This will be done by either (a) an automated process, or (b) a process which will be conducted or supervised by an independent person, or (c) such process as is explained in the Specific Rules.
In the case of a competition, where the selection of a winning entry is open to subjective interpretation (for example, in the case of a written submission such as “tell us in 100 words why your pet is the best pet in the world”), the prize winners will be selected by an independent judge or a panel of judges that includes one independent judge. The names of the independent judges will be made available on request by writing to kevin@wearehotradio.com – the judges may vary with each competition, so please ensure you identify the relevant competition when making that request. However, for competitions that involve the selection of winners at random from a pool of eligible entrants, such random selection will be conducted using a random computer process.
4.3 If you win a prize:
4.3.1 you will need to respond to the notification within the timeframe set out in the Specific Rules (this will be no later than 28 days following the date of our notification if no timeframe is set out in the Specific Rules), and follow the instructions provided to you. You will need to provide proof of your ID, age and address (and, in relation to an on-air Promotion, we may also require proof that your voice matches that of the relevant entrant/winner) as well as accepting our Promotion Terms and Conditions.
4.3.2 we will only be able to send prize fulfilment information and/or prize details to the email address you used to enter the Promotion or, in relation to an on-air or social media platform Promotion, the email address you registered with us after being notified as a winner.
Once you have provided all the required information, we will then send you the prize within 28 days of our receipt of this, subject to the provisions set out at 5.3 below. We will not be liable for any prizes which are lost, delayed, damaged or destroyed in transit. Holiday prizes will be confirmed but may not be available to take within this time period. We will send you the Audata link (see the provisions at 5.4 below) within 28 days of us receiving all the required information. In relation to cash prizes, there are additional deadline requirements for you to claim the prize (see the provisions at 5.4 below).
4.4 If: (i) you are unable to provide us with a valid form of ID and/or proof of age or address; (ii) you provide us with incorrect or fraudulent information; or (iii) you fail to comply with any other instructions or time limits notified to you (including but not limited to the additional requirements with regards to a prize at 5.4 below), you will forfeit your right to the prize and we reserve the right to withdraw the prize and select another winner. For the avoidance of doubt, if it becomes apparent that you have breached this term (4.4) after you have received your prize, we reserve the right to request the return of the prize or a similar cash value from you.
5 Prizes
5.1 The prize or prizes will be as described in the relevant Specific Rules. Imagery is for illustrative purposes only, and colours and other minor details may vary. Anything which is not expressly included in the prize description in the Specific Rules is not included as part of the prize. For example, without limitation, transport/travel, meals, refreshments, accommodation, insurance, spending money, are all excluded from the prize unless expressly included.
5.2 Each prize is subject to availability and is non-transferable, non-refundable and, (unless we offer it), no cash alternative is available. Where prizes consist of entry tickets, events, holidays (see below) and other time-specific prizes, they must be taken on the dates specified by us.
5.3 We and our Promotion Partners will, of course, try to provide the prize as described and try to provide the prize within the timeframe set out in the Promotion Terms and Conditions. Occasionally, circumstances beyond our reasonable control might make this difficult or impossible. For example, if a prize involves a meet and greet with a celebrity they may be unwell or their commitments may change, or if the prize involves travel or tickets to an event, weather conditions or other circumstances (including without limitation local or national rules or official guidance relating to a pandemic) might mean that plans are disrupted, postponed or cancelled. If we consider it necessary or appropriate, a prize or prizes (or part thereof) might be varied or swapped for a suitable alternative of equivalent value which will be decided at our sole discretion.
5.4 You must have a UK bank account in order to be eligible for any cash prize. Unless otherwise specified in the Specific Rules, prizes will be processed through the prize fulfilment system, a prize processing platform licensed by us. This will require you (if you win) to input your personal details (including your name, email address, date of birth, postcode and bank details). The personal data that you submit to the prize fulfilment system will only be used by us in order to securely process the prize. Once you have followed the instructions on the prize fulfilment system, prizes will be organised or sent to you and cash prizes will be paid by BACS transfer (except where we elect to issue the prize using another method if we consider it necessary or appropriate to do so at our sole discretion). We will not issue cash prizes via any other means. You will need to input your details into the prize fulfilment system within 28 days of us sending you the link otherwise we reserve the right to withdraw the prize and select another winner. You are solely responsible for following the instructions on the prize fulfilment system, inputting your details correctly, or letting us know if you experience any issues with the system.
5.5 You will not be entitled to receive a prize which, for any reason, you would be prohibited by law from purchasing, using, owning or possessing, and you must not enter a Promotion to win such a prize. If you are the winner of such a prize, you will be disqualified, and we reserve the right to withdraw the prize and select another winner. For the avoidance of doubt, you will not be entitled to an alternative prize unless we decide at our sole discretion to grant you an alternative prize (instead of disqualifying you and selecting an alternative winner).
5.6 Any tax or other charge payable in conjunction with the prize will be your sole responsibility. If this is of concern you should speak to a financial advisor.
5.7 The prize cannot be used in conjunction with other offers, Promotions or prizes.
5.8 Third party terms and conditions may apply to certain parts of a prize, where applicable. For example, where the prize contains ticket(s) to an event, you and any guest(s) and/or travel companion(s) will not only be bound by the Promotion Terms and Conditions, but also the event organiser and venue owner’s rules and all terms and conditions set out on the ticket.
5.9 Unless otherwise specified in the Specific Rules, you may not win more than one prize per Promotion and we reserve the right to withhold or reclaim any second or subsequent prize.
5.10 So that we can ensure the fairness of our Promotions, we reserve the right to prevent you, at our absolute discretion, from entering any of the Promotions for a period of six months (“Exclusion Period”) if you have either: (i) won a prize valued at £1,000 or above during the previous six months; or (ii) won more than one prize during the previous six months. If we choose to exercise this right, we will notify you in writing (for example by email). If you enter any Promotion during the Exclusion Period, you may be disqualified and we reserve the right to: (i) select another entrant to participate in the Promotion or withdraw the prize and select another winner, as applicable; (ii) impose either a further exclusion period of twelve months from the date of your last entry attempt, or a longer or permanent ban, if we deem this necessary or appropriate; and/or (iii) disqualify your mobile phone number(s) and email addresses from future Promotions during this Exclusion Period. If you are disqualified, entry fees (if any) will not be refunded.
6 Additional terms relating to prizes involving a holiday
6.1 Prizes involving a holiday (‘Holiday Prizes’) are subject to availability and must be taken in accordance with all requirements specified by us, including but not limited to requirements around dates, destinations, carriers and number of passengers. Blackout periods may apply, including public holidays either in the UK or the destination country.
6.2 Unless the Specific Rules state otherwise, you will be responsible for all ancillary expenses in relation to the prize which aren’t expressly included. So, the cost of food, drinks, taxis/transfers, gratuities, government taxes (where applicable), any additional luggage allowance and so on will not be included unless they are expressly included in the prize description. You must ensure that you have sufficient financial resources to meet any financial commitments which you may incur in connection with the prize beyond those which are included as part of the prize (including but not limited to transfers to and from the UK airport, meals and drinks). You must not commit us to any costs or expenses without our prior written consent (which we are not obliged to give) and will remain liable for such costs if you attempt to do so.
6.3 You will be responsible for all necessary inoculation and all other health and/or visa requirements for your holiday destination.
6.4 You must hold a valid passport, (which will not expire within 6 months after the last day of the holiday), with no visa restrictions. Passport control and in-country authorities reserve the right to refuse entry and/or to detain you, for example, some countries may deny you entry if you have a criminal conviction. If you are refused passage and or entry/exit to or from the country being visited, we will not be held responsible for that or for any costs, expenses or losses incurred by you or your guest(s)/travel companion(s), which will be your sole responsibility. If you are not able to travel, your guest(s)/travel companion(s) may also be denied access to the holiday/Holiday Prize.
6.5 All holidays must be taken within 12 months of the end date of the Promotion (unless otherwise stated in the Specific Rules or agreed with us). If holidays are not taken by this date, unless we agree otherwise, you will forfeit your right to the prize and we reserve the right to withdraw the prize and select another winner.
6.6 Holiday Prizes are not available to persons under the age of 18 unless otherwise stated in the Specific Rules. If permitted to travel, children under 18 years may only do so if accompanied by a parent or guardian (or, if we agree on a case by case basis, another responsible adult) aged 18 or over.
6.7 If insurance is offered as part of the prize, the Specific Rules will provide details of any travel insurance policy or we may provide these to you separately. Where no insurance is expressly offered, or you do not consider the insurance to be adequate for your needs, you are responsible for obtaining adequate travel insurance.

If you do become aware of any confidential information relating to the Promotion, including (without limitation) any information that has not yet been publicly broadcast and/or information we ask you to keep confidential indefinitely, you must keep this information confidential until we confirm in writing (for example, by email) that it is no longer necessary to do so. If you fail to do this, or we have reasonable grounds to suspect you have failed to do this, we reserve the right to disqualify you from the Promotion at our discretion, and/or to withhold the prize from you and award it to another entrant, and/or to take any other measures we consider necessary or appropriate based on the relevant circumstances.
