Duckrabbit can be the first to tell you that the terms and conditions to the ‘Science: so what‘ photo comp have been radically altered to the benefit of all participants. It’s great to know that we can affect these things. I would like to thank the elusive ‘Frank’ for all his efforts. Here is the most relevant amended clause:
“By entering this contest you agree that any (winning or shortlisted) entry you submit may be used by the Promoter, News Group Newspapers Ltd and their selected sub licensees solely for marketing and promotional purposes in connection with this contest or future contests, such uses include;
· judging the competition;
· displaying the entries on the Science: [So what? So everything] website and The Sun’s website;
· displaying the entries in the printed version(s) of The Sun newspaper;
· cropping and re-sizing the image as necessary to fit; and
· inclusion within any materials promoting the competition or any exhibition of images from this competition organized by the Promoter, News Group Newspapers Ltd and their authorised representatives”
Best get entering then if you have a relevant snap…
Just need to get Mandelson to change the DEB now….may be a little tougher….
