Where a prize is to be provided by a third party, JML accepts no responsibility whatsoever for the supply or non-supply or purported supply or delay in supply of the prize, including without limitation, the failure of the winner to receive ownership of or use the prize. Where appropriate, prize winners are required to complete all applicable booking and/or other formalities directly with the specified third party provider(s).

JML reserves the right to change prize details without notice and all prizes, including holiday travel dates, are subject to availability.

Some competitions may require entrants to submit content in order to win the prize. Where this is required, entry constitutes permission to use the submitted content for publication across all JML platforms and prize winners agree that submitted content can be used for any related promotional activities as JML and/or the promoter(s) may require.

Acceptance of the prize constitutes permission to use the relevant winner's name, hometown and likeness for purposes of advertising, promotion or publicity in any media without additional compensation and prize winners agree to take part in such related promotional activities as JML and/or the promoter(s) may require.

Nor will JML have any liability or responsibility for any claim arising in connection with participation in any JML competition or any of the prizes rewarded.

Prizes not claimed within specified time limit will be deemed to have been forfeited and JML may dispose of such prizes without any liability to the winner.

Any person found to be in disregard of these rules will be disqualified automatically.

JML reserves the right to disqualify any contestant for any reason whatsoever in its sole discretion.
