Competitions on Yorkshire-List

Competitions on Yorkshire-List’s website, and sometimes on our associated social channels, give our readers the chance to win prizes from or in relation to our partner brands.

Brands offer competitions as a way to inform you about their products or services and sometimes additional benefits like offers, discounts or exclusives to the entrants of those competitions.

To make sure that our competitions are fair, transparent and compliant with applicable laws and best practice, we set out the terms and conditions that apply to competitions. Sometimes, the partner brand or prize provider will have additional terms and conditions on the competition page itself.

Terms & Conditions

It is a condition of entry to a competition that you agree to the terms and conditions below as well as the specific terms that apply to that competition.

In running a competition, we collect, store and process personal data. To see how we process your data, see how we use your data. It is a condition of entry that you agree to our data policies.

The data controller and promoter is You Platforms (Leeds) Ltd, trading as Yorkshire-List, which we’ll refer to as the ‘company’ below.

How competitions work

Typically, competition winners are drawn at random within five days of the competition’s closing date, and the winner is notified by email shortly afterwards.

If the winner does not respond to this email within 24 hours (or the time period specified), the company may elect to re-draw the prize and offer it to someone else without further notice. When this happens, the original winner automatically forfeits their eligibility for the prize. The company may repeat this process until an eligible winner is found or may close the competition without notice.

These durations and the medium used to contact the winner are subject to change, without notice, as the company deems necessary. Business hours and public holidays may change or impact these durations.

Where a prize is limited in availability, capacity or is time sensitive, the company accepts no responsibility where a prize becomes unavailable and may withdraw the prize without notice at any time. The company, promoter or brand partner may alter, substitute or change the prize for another of similar type or value without notice.

After a competition is closed, you agree that we can send you our Yorkshire-List email newsletter to inform you of similar opportunities, competitions and offers. You can stop receiving such information by using the ‘unsubscribe’ link in the next email you receive.
