The Rules, in Plain LanguageThe Rules, in Plain Language

• Entrants must be 9 to 12 as of the championship start date.
• A one-time entry fee is required to enter, appear on the leaderboard, or win a prize.
• Entry must be completed by a parent or legal guardian, who confirms consent on the child's behalf.
• Up to two child profiles per parent account may compete.

• The championship is open to children 9 to 12.
• Everyone competes together in one group, on one leaderboard.

• Register each child at registration or add more from the Parent Zone. Every entry needs a leaderboard handle, first name, date of birth and your consent. 
• There's no cutoff for weekly prizes; join any week and compete for that week's prizes on equal terms.
• To qualify for the Grand Final, a child needs a scored result in at least two of the scheduled championship periods. Join early enough to complete both qualifying periods.

Your child can compete in any championship period their access is active. The championship runs.

• A one-time entry fee is required to join and win prizes.
• The entry fee also covers other features of Rapkids App; Kids Comics and FlashMaths

• Every run is checked automatically for signs of scripted or assisted typing.
• Nothing is auto-disqualified. Every flagged run, and every prospective weekly winner, is reviewed by a person before any result is announced.
• A child can win only one cash prize category per week; their highest-value one.
• A household can win at most one cash prize per week.
• Creating multiple profiles for one child, entering a false date of birth, or playing on another child's account is grounds for disqualification.

• Cash prizes are paid to the guardian on record, never to the child.
• Paid within 10 business days of the result being announced, by bank transfer or another suitable method.

Appearing on camera is never a condition of winning. Every finalist's guardian chooses one of three ways to take part, and all three are eligible for the full prize.

• Full broadcast: your child appears on camera during the live stream.
• Audio and avatar only: your child is heard, represented by their avatar, but not shown on camera.
• Private proctored session: your child competes privately with a proctor, and only the score is made public.
• Consent for the live stream, the recording staying up afterward, and marketing clips are each separate, and each can be withdrawn at any time.

• Public leaderboards show your child's chosen handle only; never their real name or other sensitive details
• Ask us to remove your child from any public board at any time; we'll do it within 24 hours.
• Keystroke timing is kept in raw form for 30 days for fair-play checks, then reduced to summary statistics.
• If your child wins and we need to verify their age, we view the document, confirm it and delete it. We never keep a copy.
