1. Information regarding prizes and how to enter forms part of these conditions. By entering, entrants accept these conditions.
2. Entry is open only to Australian residents excluding directors, officers, management and employees (and the immediate families of directors, officers, management and employees) of the Promoter or of the agencies or companies associated with this competition.
3. The competition begins at 9.00am (AEDST) on 23/11/09 and closes at 11.59pm (AEDST) on 23/12/09 (or at a later date as determined and specified by the Promoter) (Competition Period).
4. Entrants must, during the Competition Period, visit www.keensmustard.com.au (Website) and upload an image (limit 2MB in .jpeg or .gif format) of, either:

   (Entry), and fully complete and submit the online entry form including their full name, age, suburb, postcode, email address, gender and contact phone numbers (and any other details as required by the Promoter).
5. Once the Promoter has viewed the Entry and deemed it acceptable (in its absolute discretion), the Entry may be placed on the Website along with the entrant's first name and suburb. The Promoter is not liable for any technical difficulty or error that results in any Entry being wholly or partly unavailable for online access, for any period of time.
6. By entering, entrants acknowledge that their Entry (and their first name and suburb) may be made available online by the Promoter (in its absolute discretion) and may be accessible to the general public. The Promoter may copy, in part or in its entirety, the Entry, cause the Entry to be seen in public, and communicate the Entry to the public. It may also allow third parties to do these things.
7. Entrants may enter as many times as they wish provided that each Entry is based on a separate Entry containing a different photo. Each Entry must be received during the Competition Period.

The Promoter has no control over telephone communications, networks, lines or the Internet and accepts no responsibility for any problems associated with them, whether due to traffic congestion, technical malfunction or otherwise. The Promoter is not liable for any consequences of user error including (without limitation) costs incurred.
8. Entries not fully complying with these conditions of entry may be deemed invalid at the Promoter's discretion. This is a game of skill; chance plays no part in determining the winners. Each Entry will be individually judged (by representatives of the Promoter) based on, among other things, creativity and "keenness". The judges decision is final and no correspondence will be entered into.
9. The entrant assigns all rights (including copyright) in each Entry to the Promoter at the time of submitting an Entry. By entering this competition entrants:

10. Once submitted, entrants cannot alter or delete their Entry without prior approval from the Promoter. Entrants can contact the Promoter at the address in paragraph 26 in relation to altering or deleting their Entry.

    (d) does not include any work or other item in which copyright subsists (Copyright Content), unless the entrant is entitled to do so.

By including any Copyright Content in their Entry, the entrant warrants that they are entitled to do so; and
    (e) contains no viruses or other computer code or material embedded in it which may have a negative impact on the Website, this competition or any network or third party computer systems.
13. The Promoter may (but is not obliged to) at any time reject and/or remove from access by the public or disqualify or invalidate any Entry that it considers (in its sole judgment) infringes these terms and conditions. The Promoter will have no liability to entrants in that regard.
14. At the end of the Competition Period, the best valid Entry received relating to an entrant's own decorated home and the best valid Entry received relating to another person’s decorated residential home will each win a prize. There are 2 prizes to be won.

17. The prizes will be delivered to the winners at their nominated address. The Promoter and its associated agencies and companies will not be liable for any damage or delay in transit to prizes.
18. The Promoter and its associated agencies and companies will not be liable for any loss (including, without limitation, indirect, special or consequential loss or loss of profits), expense, damage, personal injury or death which is suffered or sustained (whether or not arising from any person's negligence) in connection with this competition or accepting or using any prize, except for any liability which cannot be excluded by law (in which case that liability is limited to the minimum allowable by law).
19. The Promoter may require the winners to provide proof of identity and proof of residency. Identification considered suitable for verification is at the Promoter's discretion.
20. The Promoter may, in its sole discretion, disqualify all Entries from, and prohibit further participation in this competition by, any person who tampers with or benefits from any tampering with the entry process or with the operation of the competition or acts in violation of these conditions, acts in a disruptive manner or acts with the intent to annoy, abuse, threaten or harass any other person.
21. The prizes are not transferable or exchangeable and cannot be redeemed for cash. The Promoter accepts no responsibility for any variation in prize value. Where a prize is unavailable for any reason the Promoter may substitute for that prize another item of equal or higher value as determined by the Promoter.
22. Each prize must be claimed by 25/01/10. If a prize remains unclaimed by that date, that winner's entry will be deemed invalid and the Promoter reserves the right to distribute the prize to the next best valid entry (within the same photo category).
23. If for any reason any aspect of this competition is not capable of running as planned, including, but not limited to, by reason of tampering, unauthorised intervention, fraud, technical failures or any cause beyond the control of the Promoter which corrupts or affects the administration, security, fairness, integrity or proper conduct of this competition, the Promoter may in its sole discretion cancel, terminate, modify or suspend the competition, or invalidate any affected Entries.
24. The Promoter accepts no responsibility for any tax implications that may arise from the prize winnings. Independent financial advice should be sought. Where the operation of this competition results in, for GST purposes, supplies being made for non-monetary consideration, entrants agree to follow the Australian Taxation Office's stated view that where the parties are at arm's length, goods and services exchanged are of equal GST inclusive market values.
