Private Pool Managers are solely and exclusively responsible for timely and correct updating and information entry into their respective Private Pools. If the pool has a prize, it is the sole responsibility of the individual pool manager to award that prize correctly. FBP will not accept any responsibility for errors, omission, negligence or wrongful acts by any Private Pool Manager in the administration of pools, awarding of prizes, or for any other damages, direct or consequential, arising from participation in a Private Pool.
