Participants may not assert any claims against the online platform arising in connection with their participation in the contest or their use of the platform. Participants acknowledge that the contest is in no way sponsored, endorsed, or organized by the online platform, nor is it affiliated with the online platform in any way. All information and data provided by participants or collected from them in connection with the contest will be made available only to us and not to the online platform. We ask that all inquiries and comments regarding the contest be directed to us and not to the online platform.
If we receive participants’ data from the online platform based on their consent or another legal basis, the use, storage, and other processing of this data will be limited to the purposes specified in connection with the sweepstakes (e.g., if we are able to pre-fill users’ email addresses on a sweepstakes entry form).
If participants are asked to enter login credentials, that information will be processed by the provider of the online platform. In particular, we do not have access to participants’ passwords.
In addition to these Terms and Conditions of Participation, the online platform’s applicable terms and conditions and privacy policy apply to the use of the platform. Further information regarding the consent process, details about consents granted, and options for revoking them can be found in the online platform’s privacy policy.
8. Information on Warranty and Liability
Please note that the contest and the prizes are voluntary offerings on our part, and are not subject to the same scope of warranty and liability as, for example, a purchase of the prizes awarded in the contest made independently of the contest.
Legal Remedies: Legal remedies are excluded with respect to the drawing of winners and any evaluation of the contest entries submitted.
9. Privacy Policy
We process personal data (hereinafter also referred to as “data”) of participants in sweepstakes and contests only in compliance with the applicable data protection regulations, to the extent that such processing is necessary for the organization, conducting, and administering the sweepstakes (Art. 6(1), sentence 1, subparagraph (b) of the GDPR), the participants have consented to the processing (Art. 6(1), first sentence, letter a) GDPR), or the processing serves our legitimate interests in the security of the sweepstakes or in the protection of our interests against misuse, in accordance with Art. 6(1), first sentence, letter f) GDPR.
Participants’ data will only be transferred to third parties if this is necessary for the conduct of the sweepstakes (e.g., for the sponsor(s) to send out prizes, or to technical service providers or agencies contracted in connection with the conduct of the sweepstakes) or if a participant has consented to such transfer.
As part of the sweepstakes, we inform participants which of their details are required for entry.
Participants’ data will be deleted as soon as the contest ends and the data is no longer needed to notify the winners or to address any questions regarding the contest. As a general rule, participants’ data will be deleted no later than 6 months after the end of the contest. Winners’ data may be retained for a longer period, for example, to answer questions about the prizes or to fulfill the prize obligations; in this case, the retention period depends on the type of prize and may be up to three years for goods or services, for example, to handle warranty claims. Furthermore, participants’ data may be stored for a longer period, for example, in connection with (data protection-compliant) reporting on the contest in online and offline media or in the case of contest entries published on social media.
If data was also collected for other purposes in connection with the sweepstakes, its processing and retention period are governed by the privacy notice applicable to that use (e.g., when subscribing to a newsletter as part of a sweepstakes).
In addition, whenever we process your data or provide additional information regarding the processing of your data, we include a link to our privacy policy and refer you to it.
