Jagex General competition Terms & Conditions
- These terms and conditions (the 'Rules') together with any specific rules detailed for individual competitions (a 'Competition') are the general rules which apply to any competition run on any website owned by Jagex Limited ('Jagex'), unless otherwise stated. Entry into any Competition is conditional upon and confirms acceptance of the Rules, as well as any specific rules relating to a Competition.
