Your personal data will not be used for marketing or used by any third parties. Your personal data will be used in accordance with the Privacy Policy, which forms part of these Terms and Conditions. 

7.14 A Prize Draw is awarded conditionally upon acceptance. If We are unable to contact You within 7 days from initial contact or if any Prize Draw is unclaimed or declined within 7 days, the Prize Draw shall be deemed as unclaimed or unaccepted and a supplementary winner may be drawn by Us. If the Prize Draw is time sensitive, We will state in the win confirmation how many days You will have to accept the Prize Draw. 

7.15 Some Prize Draws may require You to accept third party terms and conditions, such as ticket terms, and acceptance of the Prize Draw will be subject to such conditions. 

7.16 Unless otherwise stated, the Prize Draw winner(s) will be solely responsible for travel to and from the venue and all other expenses. We assume no responsibility and are not liable for any costs, charges or expenses which Prize Draw winner(s) may be required to pay at any time in connection with a Prize Draw. 

7.17 We reserve the right to provide a substitute prize of similar value if the specified Prize Draw becomes unavailable for reasons beyond a party’s reasonable control. Cash or credit alternatives will not be offered. None of the Prize Draws are transferable. 

7.18 We accept no responsibility for incorrect, or delayed entries. You accept the decision We reach is final and no correspondence will be entered into. 

7.19 We reserve the right to end, amend or suspend any Prize Draw; amend these Prize Draw Terms and Conditions without prior notice; declare void the notification of winner(s); and/or to allocate available Prize Draw by conducting a simple draw from all wrongly allocated winner(s).

Otherwise our liability to You shall be limited to the total amount of price paid in the relevant Cinema Booking and/or Bowling Booking on the occasion You attended and the liability was incurred.
