Terms & Condictions


COMPETITION TERMS AND CONDITIONS

These terms and conditions, together with any specific rules set out in Competition Notices, apply to any competition or prize draw ("Competition") organised and operated by NRG Tadio Limited, or any companies within the Pure Tone Media ("us", "we", "our", "Pure Tone Media").

It is important that you read these terms and conditions and any applicable Competition Notice carefully. If you have not located the applicable Competition Notice please contact us for a copy. A copy of these terms and conditions can also be obtained by sending a stamped self-addressed envelope addressed "Competition Terms" to NRG Radio Limited at the address below.

By participating in a Competition you are deemed to have accepted and agreed to be bound by these terms and conditions and any applicable Competition Notices (together the "Competition Terms"). These terms and conditions will have priority over any inconsistent terms in any applicable Competition Notice. We may amend or vary these terms and conditions from time to time. The most recent version of these terms and conditions (as available on our website) will apply as at the date of the Competition.
