   ii. upon receiving a link via a reply comment from the Promoter, follow the link to the competition page and complete the entry form by entering their full name and contact details; and

   iii. submit that completed form.

   For clarity, any posts made to the MyRyobi Group as entry into this promotion must be genuinely seeking advice on projects or providing advice on projects. Any posts that are deemed by the Promoter, in its sole discretion, to not be genuine posts will not receive a link to the competition page and will not be considered as entry into this promotion.

7. The Promoter reserves the right, at any time, to verify the validity of entries and entrants (including an entrant’s identity, age and place of residence) and reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to disqualify any individual who the Promoter has reason to believe has breached any of these Terms and Conditions, tampered with the entry process or engaged in any unlawful or other improper misconduct calculated to jeopardise fair and proper conduct of the promotion. Errors and omissions may be accepted at the Promoter's discretion. Failure by the Promoter to enforce any of its rights at any stage does not constitute a waiver of those rights. The Promoter's legal rights to recover damages or other compensation from such an offender are reserved.

8. Incomplete, indecipherable, or illegal entries will be deemed invalid.

9. Multiple entries are permitted. Each eligible entrant will receive entries into a single Monthly Draw (defined below) as follows:

   i. one (1) entry for every original post made in the MyRyobi Group; and

   ii. one (1) entry for the entrant’s first comment in response to an original post in the MyRyobi Group. For clarity, if an entrant makes any subsequent or reply comments on the same original post, only one (1) entry will be awarded.

10. If there is a dispute as to the identity of an entrant, the Promoter reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to determine the identity of the entrant.

11. This is a game of chance and skill plays no part in determining the winners.

12. There will be five (5) monthly draws conducted for this promotion (each a “Monthly Draw”). Entries open and close for each draw on the dates and times specified in the table below. All draws will take place at Techtronic Industries Australia Pty Limited, 31 Gilby Road, Mount Waverley VIC 3149 on the dates and time specified in the table below. The Promoter may draw additional reserve entries and record them in order, in case of an invalid entry or ineligible entrant is drawn. The winners will be notified in writing within two (2) business days of the draw. Winners names will be published online at https://www.ryobi.com.au/winners from the dates specified in the table below.

    

13. For the sake of clarity, the date of the entrant’s post or first reply comment in the MyRyobi Group will determine which Monthly Draw the entrant is entered into. For example, if an entrant posts a reply comment in September, provided that comment is deemed a valid entry, the entrant will be entered into the September Monthly Draw regardless of whether the original post the entrant replied to was posted to the MyRyobi Group in September or otherwise. Nonwinning entries in each Monthly Draw will NOT be entered into subsequent Monthly Draws.

14. The Promoter’s decision is final and no correspondence will be entered into.

15. The winners will be notified in writing with instructions on how to claim their prize.

17. Subject to the unclaimed prize draw clause, if for any reason a winner does not claim a prize (or an element of the prize) by the time stipulated by the Promoter, then the prize (or that element of the prize) will be forfeited.

18. If any prize (or part of any prize) is unavailable, the Promoter, in its discretion, reserves the right to substitute the prize (or that part of the prize) with a prize to the equal value and/or specification, subject to any written directions from a regulatory authority.
