We have a few rules which you’ll need to know and follow whenever you enter a competition run by Nickelodeon UK Limited (Company Registration No: 2797365) of 15-18 Rathbone Place, London, W1T 1HU (Nickelodeon).
Some of the rules - such as how to enter the competition, closing date, prize details, and anything else Nickelodeon thinks you may need to know up front - will be given whenever Nickelodeon tells you about the competition but the rest of the rules are set out below.
Together these rules will apply to the competition and by entering the competition, you promise to follow and be bound by these rules. So be sure to get your parents/guardians to read and discuss these rules with you.
1. First things first…before you enter the competition, please get your parent’s/guardian’s permission to enter the competition and as there may be some costs involved to enter, please don’t forget to also ask the person who will be paying the bill. Costs to enter may vary and it is advisable that the person paying the bill checks the current rates with their network operator.
2. Unless Nickelodeon tells you otherwise, the competition will close at midnight on the closing date. If you want to enter the competition, Nickelodeon will need to have received your entry by this time. Entries received after this time will not be valid.
