The Label must not have been submitted for any other competition.
Entrants acknowledge and agree that all entries to the Competition must comply with the ABAC Responsible Alcohol Marketing Code found at: https://www.abac.org.au/about/thecode/
If Aether determines in its sole discretion that an entry is incomprehensible, incomplete or does not comply with the ABAC Responsible Alcohol Marketing Code, Aether will, in its sole discretion, deem the entry invalid.
Entrants in the Competition may enter multiple times.
Aether reserves the right to require winners to provide proof of identity, proof of residency and/or proof of entry validity in order to claim the prize. Proof of identification, residency and entry considered suitable for verification is at the discretion of Aether. In the event that a winner cannot provide suitable proof, the winner will forfeit the prize in whole and no substitute will be offered. Aether may then choose a 2^nd entry as the winner of the Competition.
Aether reserves the right to verify the validity of entries and to disqualify any entry which, in the opinion of Aether, includes objectionable content, profanity, potentially insulting, inflammatory or defamatory statements, disqualify any entrant who tampers with the entry process, who submits an entry that is not in accordance with these Terms or who has, in the opinion of Aether, engaged in conduct in entering the Competition which is fraudulent, misleading, deceptive or generally damaging to the goodwill or reputation of the Competition and/or Aether. Aether reserves the right to disqualify a winner if Aether becomes aware that the winner and/or the winner’s entry is of a type described in this clause.
Aether accepts no responsibility for any late, lost or misdirected entries including delays in the provision of entries due to technical disruptions, network congestion or for any other reason.
Each valid entrant will be judged by the Aether Brewing art panel which includes external art mentors. The judges will select the winning entry, based on the most creative entry at the judge’s sole discretion.
Aether’s decision is final and Aether will not enter into correspondence regarding the Competition result or winning entry.
To the greatest extent permitted by law, Aether excludes all warranties, representations or guarantees (Warranties) regarding the Competition and any prizes, including any Warranties which may have been made in the course of advertising or promoting the Competition. The conduct of the Competition or the supply of prizes may involve third parties, and the Competition makes no Warranties and disclaims all liability in connection with any such third parties, their acts or omissions. By entering the Competition, an Entrant releases and indemnifies Aether and its related bodies corporate (including the officers, employees and agents of each) from and against all actions, penalties, liabilities, claims or demands the entrant may have against Aether or that Aether may incur for any loss or damage which is or may be suffered or sustained as a direct or indirect result of an Entrant entering or participating in the Competition or winning or failing to win a prize, or using or permitting any other person to use the prize, except for any liability which cannot be excluded by law or which would cause any part of this clause to be void or unenforceable.
If despite the foregoing clause, Aether incurs a liability to an entrant under any law which implies a Warranty into these Terms of entry which cannot legally be excluded, Aether’s liability in respect of the Promotion is limited, in Aether’s discretion, to either resupplying such goods or services as form part of the Competition, or paying the cost of resupplying those goods or services.
Without limiting any of the foregoing, in no circumstances will Aether have any liability to an Entrant for any loss or damage suffered which is indirect or consequential in nature, including without limitation any loss of profit, loss of reputation, loss of goodwill, or loss of business opportunity.
Aether and its associated agencies and companies will not be liable for any damage in transit to or delay in transit of prizes.
In the case of the intervention of any outside act, agent or event which prevents or significantly hinders Aether’s ability to proceed with the Competition on the dates and in the manner described in these Terms, including but not limited to vandalism, power failures, tempests, natural disasters, acts of God, civil unrest, strike, war, act of terrorism or pandemic, Aether may in its absolute discretion cancel, modify, suspend, delay or extend the Competition as it sees fit.
Aether reserves the right in its sole discretion to disqualify any individual who Aether has reason to believe has breached any of these conditions, or engaged in any unlawful or other improper misconduct calculated to jeopardise the fair and proper conduct of the Competition. Aether’s legal rights to recover damages or other compensation from such an offender are reserved.
If for any reason this Competition is not capable of running as planned, including due to infection by computer virus, bugs, tampering, unauthorised intervention, fraud, technical failures or any causes beyond the control of Aether, which corrupt or affect the administration, security, fairness or integrity or proper conduct of this Competition, Aether reserves the right in its sole discretion to take any action that may be available, and to cancel, terminate, modify, suspend or extend the competition.
