Competition Terms and Conditions

Barón de Ley S.A.

1. These Terms and Conditions

1.1 These terms and conditions (which we will refer to as our "General Terms") are the overarching general terms and conditions that apply to all the competitions promoted by Barón de Ley S.A. (which we will refer to as "Barón de Ley", "we" or "us"). We refer to all these competitions as the "Competitions" in these General Terms.

1.2 In addition to these General Terms, Competitions will also have their own specific terms and conditions (such as the details of how to enter, the opening/closing dates and the sort of prize you may win). Any such Competition-specific terms and conditions will be made available as part of the promotion of the particular Competition online. In these General Terms, we will refer to these Competition-specific terms and conditions as the "Specific Terms”.

1.3 You should therefore read these General Terms in combination with any applicable Specific Terms. Where any such Specific Terms conflict with these General Terms, the Specific Terms will take precedence.

1.4 We may change these General Terms at any time. You should check our website regularly for any changes, which will apply from the date that they are uploaded.

1.5 By entering any Competition you agree that you will be legally bound by these General Terms and also any applicable Specific Terms.

2. Identity Of The Promoter Of The Competition

2.1 The "promoter" of a Competition is the person who is legally responsible for operating it. Unless any Specific Terms tell you otherwise, the promoter of the Competitions will be Barón de Ley.

2.2 Barón de Ley is a company registered in Spain with company number A31/153703 and with its registered office at CARRETERA MENDAVIA- LODOSA KM. 5,5. 31587, SPAIN.

3.2 Additional eligibility requirements include: valid passports and visas to travel to Spain.

3.3 It will be our sole decision as to whether any eligibility requirement has or has not been met and we may require evidence or confirmation from entrants before awarding prizes. We reserve the right to disqualify any entry which does not comply with these General Terms.

3.4 Employees (and their immediate family and household members) of Barón de Ley, or any company involved in the Competition, or any such company's subsidiary or associated companies, agents or members of their families or households, or any prize provider, or (if relevant) any advertising agency connected with a Competitor may not enter that Competition.

4. Entry and Entry Methods

4.1 Automated Entry: The use of any automated entry software or any other mechanical or electronic means that permits any person to enter any Competition repeatedly is prohibited.

4.2 Names: Entrants must enter Competitions using their legal name once only. We reserve the right to disqualify any entrant who uses multiple names and to require them to return any prize they may have won.

4.3 Multiple Entries. Unless otherwise permitted pursuant to any Specific Terms, no person may enter any Competition more than once and persons may not enter or participate as part of a syndicate or on behalf of any other person, syndicate, group, society or company.

4.4 Prize Limits. No person or persons at the same residential address may win more than one (1) prize valued at five hundred pounds (£500) or more via any of our Competitions in any six (6) month period.

4.5 Retrospective Effect. Where an entrant or prize winner has been found to be in breach of any of the terms and conditions of a Competition and in particular where a person is in breach of the entry restrictions set out in rules 4.7 to 4.9 above, we may nevertheless still enforce our right to disqualify that person and require the return or reimbursement to us of any prize even where a prize has been awarded and/or actually provided to the entrant or prizewinner in question.

5. Prizes

5.1 We offer no cash alternative for non-cash prizes and prize winners must accept prizes in the form offered.

5.2 All prize winners will be notified that they have won a prize within twenty (20) days of the closing date of the Competition via at least one (1) of the following methods:

  • (a) by telephone; or
  • (b) in writing (including by email).

5.4 Should a prize winner's contact details change, it is their responsibility to notify us or the contact persons for the relevant Competition.

5.5 We reserve the right to request proof of a prize winner's identity in the form of a passport or driver's licence and proof of address in the form of a utility bill. In the event that a prizewinner cannot provide us with proof of identity reasonably acceptable to us, we may withdraw the prize and select another prize winner.

5.6 All prizes are subject to availability, non transferable and non exchangeable. Where prizes consist of holidays and similar time-specific benefits, they must be taken on the dates specified by us. If a prize winner does not take any element of a prize at the time stipulated by us (or any relevant third party prize provider) then that element of the prize will be forfeited by the winner. No cash will be awarded in lieu of that prize or part of it.

5.7 Any tax payable as a result of a prize being awarded or received will be the responsibility of the winner. Winners should seek independent financial advice prior to accepting a prize if this is a concern.

6. Holiday Prizes

6.1 Because of their complexity, we have certain special terms that apply to holiday prizes. These are set out in this paragraph 6. Where holiday prizes include a place for a travelling companion (i.e. a holiday for the prize winner plus guest) then these General Terms also apply to those persons.

6.2 Unless otherwise stated:

  • (i) holiday prizes consist of flights and accommodation only,
  • (ii) all spending money and other expenses, unless otherwise stated, are costs for the prizewinner and are not provided as part of any holiday prize, and
  • (iii) insurance is not provided as part of any holiday prize. It will be each prize winner's and (if applicable) their travelling companion's responsibility to take out at their own cost all relevant insurance (including but not limited to health and travel insurance, insurance for theft, loss and damage to property) which may be required or prudent to be taken.

6.3 The prizewinner and any travelling companions must have and maintain valid passports endorsed with all relevant visas and with expiry dates no less than six (6) months following the proposed dates of travel or such other duration as may be required by any relevant regulation. These passports, and their holders, must not be subject to any restrictions on their rights to travel to and from the applicable country or countries. Passport control and in-country authorities may reserve the right to refuse entry to prizewinners and/or their travelling companions. We shall not be responsible for ensuring your ability to travel to your holiday destination nor for any additional costs incurred should you be refused entry.

6.4 Unless otherwise stated in the Competition Terms & Conditions, all holiday prizes must be taken within six (6) months of the closing date of the relevant Competition or the prize will lapse.

6.5 It is the responsibility of the prizewinner and any travelling companions (if applicable) to check any travel advisories issued by the Government and determine whether they wish to accept the risk of travelling to the holiday destination. We will not be responsible for any loss or damage suffered by any prizewinner and their travelling companions (if applicable) arising out of their failure to follow any travel advisories issued by the Government.

6.6 The prizewinner and their travelling companions (if applicable) must comply with and are responsible for obtaining any inoculation and health regulations required by any holiday prize destination country.

6.7 We will not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage suffered by any prize winner or their travelling companion (if applicable) should any prize winner or their travelling companion (if applicable) not redeem a holiday prize as a result of any Government travel warning or advisory applicable to the destination country and/or countries or for any other failure on their part to travel. In particular, we shall have no obligation to substitute any alternative prize, cash equivalent or other compensation where a prize winner and/or their travelling companion (if applicable) fail to redeem a holiday prize for any reason.

6.8 Prize winners and their travelling companions must comply with the terms and limitations of airlines, other transport providers, and the venues involved in the provision of any holiday prize, including any insurance policy relating to the holiday. In particular, entrants must comply with all health and safety guidelines and instructions and all applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

7. Unclaimed Prizes

7.1 All prizes must be claimed within fourteen(14) days of our notification of winning unless otherwise stated. We reserve the right to award prizes unclaimed after this period to alternative prizewinners or not to award them at all and we shall have no liability in respect of the entry initially selected. Any prize which is returned as undelivered will be used for another Competition.

7.2 We reserve the right to award prizes unclaimed after this period to alternative prize winners or not to award them at all.

7.3 If you call to claim a prize from a "withheld number" line you must provide us with your contact details, otherwise we may be unable to contact you and you may as a result forfeit your prize.

8. Publicity And Personal Information

8.1 The personal information supplied by entrants when entering our Competitions or otherwise requested by us, will be used by us in accordance with our privacy policy which can be found here, or as modified for the Competition. You should always read the privacy policy as your entry in the relevant Competition is an agreement to be bound by the privacy policy. All entrants may have their details removed from our database by contacting us. If details are removed prior to the conclusion of the Competition and/or award of prize(s), entrants will however forfeit their right to claim any prizes.

8.2 Should an entrant be required to submit a third party's personal information as a part of entry into or participation in any Competition, each entrant must ensure that any other person whose details have been provided by the entrant to us has given or will give their consent for their details to be provided to us and to be contacted by us in relation to the relevant Competitions.

In this regard you agree that we shall have the right to use all the resulting publicity materials in any medium (including, without limitation, the internet) and in any manner we see fit, unless you advise us at the time of entering the Competition that you wish to retain your anonymity. If you elect for anonymity, we may not be able to include you in certain Competitions.

  • (d) confirm that they have the right, power and authority to grant the rights set out above and that they have obtained all consents and permissions necessary to grant us the same.
