3.  Entries

3.1 Entrants may enter each Promotional Activity once, unless indicated otherwise. Where a winner has been selected and #SBS discovers or has reasonable grounds to believe the winner has used any software or automated process either to answer questions or to make bulk entries, #SBS may in its sole discretion, select an alternative winner. Any further winner will be selected on the same criteria as the original winner, and will be equally subject to these Rules.

3.4 Any other requirement as part of the Promotional Activity rules will be detailed in the specific rules relating to the Promotional Activity. Failure to meet or to continue to meet any such requirement will result in disqualification. In the absence of a specific date being defined, failing to meet or to continue to meet the requirement before the closing date or draw date (whichever is the latter) will result in disqualification.

Where applicable, tie-breakers will be judged by #SBS and, if required by law, by an independent adjudicator. In all matters, the decision of any judge(s) and #SBS shall be final, and no correspondence or discussion shall be entered into.

4.2 Prize winners will be notified in the manner and within the time specified, or within 30 days of the closing date specified. Notification may be by any means of communication made available by the entrant, such as postal address, email, telephone or via Direct Message on Twitter/Facebook/Instagram or other similar forum of social media. Return of any prize notification as undeliverable, failure to reply within a reasonable period, or failure to return calls involving #SBS’ attempts to notify an entrant of their win, may result in disqualification, and selection of an alternate winner. Furthermore, if prizes are not claimed within 28 days of notification, replacement winners will be chosen from the remaining entries.
