If any prize (or part of any prize) is unavailable for any reason, the Promoter, in its absolute discretion, reserves the right to substitute the prize (or that part of the prize) with a prize to the equal or comparable value and/or specification. Prizes, or any unused portion of a prize, are not transferable or exchangeable and cannot be taken as cash. On-selling of prizes is not permitted.
  2. Winners and finalists will be notified via email within twenty-three (23) days of the Promotional Period end date, specified above.
  3. Contact information provided will be used in accordance with Cancer Council Victoria’s privacy policy and for the purposes of drawing a prize winner and finalists and sending out important updates and newsletter via email, unless the entrants opt-out of receiving these email communications from Cancer Council Victoria.
  4. By making a Submission, entrants confirm they consent to:
    1. the entrant and any individuals named within the Submission participating in the Promotion; and
    2. the personal information of the entrant and any individuals’ names within the Submission being used for the purposes of the Promotion, and have obtained consent from such individuals to do so.
  5. If there is a dispute as to the identity of an entrant, the Promoter reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to request and obtain proof of the identity of the entrant.
  6. This is a game of skill, and entries will be drawn based on the Promotor’s discretion as to which design campaign best promotes smoke and vape-free environments in schools. Chance plays no part in determining the winner and finalists. Submissions will be individually judged based on creative merit.
  7. The Promoter’s decision is final and no correspondence will be entered into.
  8. When an entrant submits any materials (including the Submission) via the Promotion website or otherwise, including comments, photos and images (“Content”), intellectual property subsisting in the Content vests in the Promoter and the Promoter may use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish and display such Content for any purpose in any media, without compensation, restriction on use, attribution or liability.

    1. they will not use cigarettes, e-cigarettes, or vapes as props in the Content or Submissions;

  10. The Promoter may remove any Content without notice for any reason whatsoever, including where content is objectionable in the ways described in para 18 above.
  11. If this promotion is interfered with in any way or is not capable of being conducted as reasonably anticipated due to any reason beyond the reasonable control of the Promoter, including but not limited to technical difficulties, natural disaster, unauthorised intervention or fraud, the Promoter reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to modify, suspend, terminate or cancel the promotion. Notice of cancellation will be communicated via email to all entrants and also via the Promotion website page.
  12. Any cost associated with accessing the Promotion website is the entrant’s responsibility and is dependent on the Internet service provider used. The use of any automated entry software or any other mechanical or electronic means that allows an entrant to automatically enter repeatedly is prohibited and will render all entries submitted by that entrant invalid.
  13. Without limiting any other terms herein, the entrant agrees to indemnify the Promoter in respect of any loss incurred as a result of the entrant’s breach of any of the above terms.
