An entrant may not submit any work or item into the V&A Awards if:

It infringes or violates the rights of any third party, including, without limitation, copyright, trademarks, patents, trade secrets, contractual licensing rights, privacy rights, moral rights or any other intellectual property rights.

We will not use your entries for anything other than the purpose of these awards.

Confidentiality

All entries will be treated with absolute confidentiality. No commercially sensitive information received through the entries will be used by any of the judges or organisers of the awards, for any purpose whatsoever other than to judge the quality of the entry.
