THE talkSPORT PREDICTOR GAME - I KNOW THE SCORE - TERMS AND CONDITIONS

By registering to participate in the I Know the Score game governed by these terms and conditions and the Game Rules (as defined below) ("the Game") you hereby agree to be bound by and to abide by the following terms and conditions.

Applications and Registration
1. All applications to participate in the Game must be made online on the talkSPORT website at www.talksport.co.uk ("the Site") and strictly in accordance with the relevant instructions. No applications to enter made in any other manner will be accepted. Where your application is accepted, you will become known as a "Player" in the terms below.

2. Entry into the Game is open to both UK and non-UK residents. Employees (and their immediate families) of UTV are eligible to enter but ineligible to claim prizes – in instances where UTV employees or their family members are in a prize winning position, the player with the next highest number of points will be deemed to be the official winner. Please see terms 28-31 if you are under 18 years of age, as these are extra terms which will apply to you when playing the Game.

3. No purchase of any item or service is necessary in order to enter the Game and no payment is required from you to enter the Game. The sole consideration required from you is that you agree to be bound by these terms and conditions and by the Game Rules as defined below at clause 9.

4. Entries must not be submitted by agents or third parties. No responsibility can be accepted for lost, delayed or incomplete entries or entries not received by talkSPORT for any reason. Any such entries will be deemed void (concerning which the decision of talkSPORT shall be final).

5. While there is no limit on the number of entries per household or organisation only one entry in respect of the Game per unique registered user of the Site is permitted (concerning which the decision of talkSPORT shall be final).

6. While there is no closing date for entries, talkSPORT will publish from time to time deadlines by which you must be registered as Players in order to qualify for points awarded in respect of any round of games in the Barclays Premier League competition. Any such information on how and when to enter for the Game forms part of these terms and conditions.

7. talkSPORT reserves the right to reject user names which are deemed to be inappropriate, offensive or confusing. Any names so rejected may be changed and notified to talkSPORT within seven days. In the event that the alternative name proposed on behalf of any applicant to play the Game in such circumstances is again rejected at talkSPORT's discretion the relevant applicant will be treated as being in breach of these terms and conditions.

8. Any personal information which you submit will be controlled in accordance with talkSPORT's privacy policy and all UK legislation governing the same. For the avoidance of doubt, we will not disclose your personal information to any other Player unless a) this is restricted to those details in clause 19-20, or b) if we are required to do so by a competent authority or court within the United Kingdom.

The Game Rules
9. The Game will be governed by the Game Rules from time to time published on the Site by talkSPORT ("Game Rules"). talkSPORT reserves the right to alter, amend or supplement the Game Rules from time to time in its absolute discretion in the event of any circumstances beyond its reasonable control arising or where it considers it desirable to do so. You agree that no liability shall attach to talkSPORT as a result of any such change and so are advised to check the Game Rules regularly from time to time. The Game Rules form part of these terms and conditions.

10. talkSPORT will be the sole decision-maker of any matter of interpretation of the Game Rules and any aspect of the content of, or playing of, the Game. talkSPORT will not enter into correspondence relating to such matters and its decision as to any matter arising out of or in connection with the Game Rules including but not limited to the allocation of points to any Player and/or the award of any Prize and/or any ranking or league table shall be final and conclusive.

Prizes and Winner's Details
11. The prizes awarded in respect of the Game ("Prizes") will be at the discretion of talkSPORT from time to time and talkSPORT reserves the right to alter and amend the Prizes where circumstances beyond its reasonable control require it to do so.

12. The Monthly Prize will be awarded to the Player who, according to talkSPORT's determination, is at the top of the monthly leaderboard published by talkSPORT at the end of each monthly period during the season. The exact timing of this is at the discretion of talkSPORT. Subject to any unforeseen changes, the August Winner's Prize will be a stunning and rare Beady Eye signed artwork running sheet, signed by Liam Gallagher, Andy Bell, Gem Archer and Chris Sharrock. Subsequent month’s prizes will be announced on the 15th of proceeding month and will include more amazing music memorabilia from legends such as Kasabian and Noel Gallagher – all monthly winners will also receive an iPad 2.

13. Weekly winners will receive the Shoot Music Goody Bag – Featuring top albums, rare promos and other rare treats.

14. The precise specification and nature of all prizes shall be at the discretion of talkSPORT.

15. If more than one player is at the top of the weekly or monthly leaderboard, then the winner will be chosen at random by a computer-generated, independent process. talkSPORT's decision will be final and no correspondence will be entered into.

16. Prizes are not transferable and are non-exchangeable and no cash alternative will be offered in any circumstances.

17. Winners will be notified of their success by email in respect of the Monthly Prizes by the 28th day of the month following the month in respect of which such Prize is awarded. Winners must confirm their contact details within 30 days of this notification being sent to allow the Prize in question to be delivered to them.
