How the competition works
This competition is divided into two stages: an entry submission period, and a judging period. Submission for photo entries opens at 10:00 AEDT on 30th June and closes at 23:59 AEST on 16th August. The judging period will run from 12:00 AEST on 17th August – 23:59AEST on 14th September. All valid & qualifying entries will receive an email alert including a link to the voting page on the first day of the judging period to encourage friends and family to vote.
The winning photographs will be chosen by the Huggies panel. Plus, there will be a Special Huggies Choice and a Jeans for Genes Award winner.
Unfortunately, due to recent changes in regulations by Facebook, we are no longer able to use the Facebook ‘Like’ feature to determine winners of any promotions, and we have therefore been asked by Facebook to change the Terms and Conditions of our competition. The first winner will no longer be determined by the most ‘Likes’, but will now be the photo receiving the most votes by the Huggies and Jeans for Genes judging panel. Please see below for the updated Terms and Conditions of this promotion.
You can still continue to gain the most ‘Likes’. However, this will not determine the outcome of the promotion. The more ‘Likes’ you get means that more of your friends will find out about the wonderful cause you are supporting – Jeans for Genes.
We apologize for any disappointment or inconvenience this has caused and thank you for helping us support Jeans for Genes through this Baby Photo Competition.
