Entry terms

1. About these terms

These example terms apply to every entry submitted to Aster Awards. By submitting an entry you confirm that you have read them and that you are authorised to enter on behalf of the people and organisations named in it.

Replace this sample text with your own terms after legal review.

2. Who can enter

Entries are open to practices, studios, clients and individuals whose project was completed within the eligibility period shown on the Categories page. Members of the judging panel and the organiser’s staff may not enter, and judges declare any conflict of interest before assessment begins.

3. How to enter

Submit each entry through the online entry form before the closing date. You can save a draft and return to it at any time before you submit. Once submitted, an entry can only be changed by contacting the organiser.

You may enter the same project into more than one category if it meets each category’s criteria. Each category entry is assessed separately.

4. Fees and payment

Entry fees are shown on the entry form, including any tax. An entry is complete when payment has been received. Fees are not refundable once judging has begun, except where the organiser cancels a category.

5. Judging

Entries are assessed by an independent panel against the published criteria for each category. The panel’s decisions are final. The organiser may move an entry to a more suitable category with the entrant’s agreement.

6. Using your entry

You keep ownership of everything you submit. You give the organiser permission to use shortlisted and winning entries, including images and project descriptions, to promote the awards. Credit will be given to the photographers and contributors you name in the entry.

7. Questions and changes

The organiser may update these terms before the closing date; the updated date will appear at the top of this page. Email entries@asterawards.example with any question about entering.
