2016 Calendar Photo Competition – Terms & Conditions
The competition opens on Sunday 3rd May 2015 and closes at 18:00 on Friday 22nd May 2015. The winners will be announced on Sunday 30 August 2015, or before, via email. This competition is open to all Forever Hounds Trust supporters. No trade, consumer groups or 3rd party applications will be accepted.
By entering the competition you confirm that the photograph is your own, original image to submit.
Forever Hounds Trust are dedicated to spreading the word that greyhounds and lurchers make great pets. To help Forever Hounds Trust to do this, any photo entered might be used by Forever Hounds Trust, in the calendar or other online and offline marketing materials. By submitting a photo you agree that Forever Hounds Trust can use it in any of these materials, to help promote and raise awareness of Forever Hounds Trust’s vision – a day when every greyhound and lurcher is free from risk or need.
If your photo is shortlisted to progress through to the final judging stage, we will request you submit a high resolution version of the image, for our further consideration.
– If you entered via Facebook, please check your Facebook Private Messages (including the ‘Other’ box). This includes if you have submitted an entry on behalf of someone else.
– If you entered via email, the shortlist notification will be sent to the same email address you entered under.
The Hi Resolution image is then to be emailed over to gill.meadows@foreverhoundstrust.org. Please include your contact telephone number, plus restate your category month and hound(s)’ names in each photograph.
If you fail to provide the hi-res photo in time for the judges’ final deliberation and we cannot consider your photo as a result, Forever Hounds Trust are not at fault. Please check your private Facebook messages and/or email spam folder (as appropriate to your method of entry) to avoid this.
If you have more than one entry selected to shortlist stage, please ensure the total attachment size in the email does NOT exceed 5MB, so send in separate emails if limit would otherwise be exceeded.
The judges’ decision is final. Forever Hounds Trust is not liable for any errors in printing or design of the calendar. Neither Forever Hounds Trust nor its employees/volunteers are liable for any damages to any dogs or individuals while taking photos, or for any damages arising from the illegal or false representation of the ownership of submitted photos.
Any images submitted might be altered or re-mastered as required for the final produced product, including cropping at our discretion.
The competition is open to any dog owner, except where prohibited by law. Individuals may enter more than once. Previous year’s winners are welcome to enter again this year.
Once a winner for each month has been selected, the front cover image for the calendar will be chosen by the judges from the remaining shortlisted images.
Please note that in entering this competition, *both yours and the dog’s name will be printed as part of the promotion, and you agree to all terms and conditions listed above.
*N.B. we will print both names unless category winners advise us not to.
