2. Eligibility
Competitions are open to entrants who are at least 18 years old at the time of entry, unless a specific Competition explicitly states a different minimum age.

Only entries that fulfill all specified requirements will be eligible.
Each Competition is separate. Entering one Competition does not automatically enter you into others. Unless otherwise stated, only one entry per person is allowed per Competition. Entries made using automated methods, scripts, bots, or other deceptive means are invalid and will be disqualified.
5. Prizes

Winners will be notified via the method used for entry (e.g., direct message on the social media platform used, email) within a reasonable timeframe after the draw. The notification will include instructions on how to claim the prize. The winner must respond within the timeframe specified in the notification to claim their prize. Failure to respond within this period may result in forfeiture of the prize, and an alternate winner may be selected.
