Conditions of participation for competitions

1. Subject of the Conditions of Participation and Promoter

These Conditions of Participation regulate the conditions for participating in the “Ambiente-Direct – Louis Poulsen competition” (hereinafter also referred to as the “Competition”).

The Competition will take place in the period from 15 October 2023 to 22 October 2023 (hereinafter referred to as the “Promotion Period”).

By entering the Competition, the participant accepts the validity of these Conditions of Partic-ipation. Furthermore, the participant agrees to the collection, processing and storage of his/her personal data in accordance with these Conditions of Participation.

The organiser of the Competition and therefore responsible for its implementation and han-dling is Ambiente Direct GmbH, Baierbrunner Straße 15, 81379 Munich, Germany (hereinaf-ter referred to as the “Promoter”).

This Competition is not associated with, sponsored, endorsed or organised in any way by Me-ta Platforms Ireland Ltd, Facebook and/or Instagram.

2. Eligibility

The following participation requirements apply: Participation is open to all legally competent persons aged 18 and over with a residence and address in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Employees of the Promoter, their family members, employees of cooperation partners who are or will be involved in the creation or handling of the Competition and their family members, as well as employees of other companies from the interior goods sector (in particular furniture, lamps, decorative objects and design objects for interior and exterior use) and their family members are excluded from entering the Competition. Participation also requires the partici-pant’s consent to be contacted in the event of winning.

Participants may also submit more than one entry per person. The Promoter reserves the right to exclude persons from participation if they violate the Con-ditions of Participation, provide false information, or if there is reasonable suspicion that they are using unauthorised aids to participate or are otherwise attempting to gain an advantage for themselves or third parties through manipulation. In this case, they may also be disqualified after participation, which will result in the prize being refused or reclaimed.

Entry via sweepstake clubs and any form of automated entry is prohibited.

Entry in the Competition does not involve the purchase of one or more products from the Promoter or any of the Promoter’s associated companies or third parties. The participant will not incur any costs for participating or for receiving a prize.

3. Ways to enter the Competition

Participation is only possible during the Promotion Period. Late entries, for whatever reason, cannot be considered.

Participation is as follows:

Participants may enter the Competition via one or both of the Promoter’s social media ac-counts on Facebook and/or Instagram listed below. Entering the Competition via both of the Promoter’s social media accounts is also permitted.

Facebook account: @AmbienteDirect.com (https://www.facebook.com/AmbienteDirect.com/)

Instagram account: @AmbienteDirect (AmbienteDirect (@ambientedirect) • Instagram photos and videos)

To enter the Competition, participants must like the competition post, follow the specified social media accounts and provide a correct answer to the competition question asked in the competition post and write the answer in a comment under the competition post.

When participating via Instagram: In addition to answering the competition question correctly, participants must link to another Instagram user in their answer in the comments.

The competition question on the AmbienteDirect Instagram account is: "Tag one person in the comments who should definitely hear about the competition too."

The competition question on the AmbienteDirect Facebook account is: "Tell us in the comments where the lamp would get a place in your home."

This is a single competition which can be entered via both of the Promoter’s aforementioned social media accounts. There will be only one winner chosen from among all participants.

4. Prize; selecting the winner; sending the prize

As a prize the Promoter shall provide

1x Panthella Portable 250 LED Table Lamp With Battery, Art.-ID.: 319682, UVP EUR 535,00

The prize will be selected by the Promoter. The winner cannot choose the product details of their prize (such as the colour, size and other specifications).

At the end of the Promotion Period, the winner will be drawn from all participants who have liked the competition post, followed the social media accounts mentioned and answered the prize question correctly. The Promoter is free to assess whether the competition question has been answered correctly, but this assessment must not be made arbitrarily. The Promoter will notify the winner of their prize within a reasonable time after the end of the Promotion Period by way of a Facebook or Instagram direct message, depending on the method of entry. The winner must respond to this message within five (5) days and provide the Promoter with their postal address. If the winner does not send the Promoter their full postal address within five (5) days of being notified of the prize via direct message, the prize will be forfeited. The prize will also be forfeited if the prize is not accepted. If a prize is forfeited, the Promoter is entitled to draw a new winner.

The Promoter will send the prize to the winner within a reasonable time after receiving the full postal address. It is not possible to collect the prize from the Promoter’s registered office. Any costs incurred for shipping (no express shipping) of the prize will be borne by the Promoter. Any additional costs associated with the use of the prize will be borne by the winner. The prize will be handed over exclusively to the winner or to a legal representative of the winner.

5. Disclaimer

The Promoter’s liability for damages shall apply without prejudice to the other statutory re-quirements for claims.

The Promoter’s liability for claims for damages by participants is limited to cases of intent and gross negligence. This limitation of liability does not apply to injury to life, limb and health, to a defect following the assumption of guarantees for the quality of a product and to fraudu-lently concealed defects. Liability under the German Product Liability Act remains unaffect-ed. Insofar as the Promoter’s liability is excluded or limited, this also applies to the personal liability of employees, representatives and vicarious agents of the Promoter.

6. Applicable law; changes; premature termination of the Competition

The law of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply. Legal recourse shall be excluded. There is no actionable claim to participation in the Competition. The prize may not be paid out in cash or in kind, nor may it be exchanged or transferred to another person.

The Promoter reserves the right to terminate or amend the Competition at any time without prior notice if, for technical or other reasons, the proper conduct of the Competition cannot be guaranteed or in the event of manipulation or attempted manipulation. The participants are not entitled to any claims arising from this.

7. Privacy policy

The Promoter shall collect and use the participants’ data only insofar as this is permitted by law or the participants consent to it.

The following data of the participants will be collected by the Promoter and will be used for the design, implementation and handling of the Competition: Name of the participant, postal address. This data will be collected and used by the Promoter solely for the purpose of deter-mining the winners, verifying compliance with the Conditions of Participation (including mon-itoring for abuse) and sending the prize. The legal basis for this is Article 6(1)(a) GDPR

Personal data will be deleted following the implementation and processing of the Competi-tion, but no later than within twelve (12) weeks after the end of the Competition, provided that the deletion does not conflict with any statutory retention obligations.

Participants may at any time request in writing or in text form from the Promoter information about which personal data are stored by the Promoter and request their correction and dele-tion. The participant may revoke his/her consent to the processing of his/her data at any time with effect for the future. By revoking his/her consent, the participant simultaneously with-draws from the Competition.

Participants can use the email address pr@ambientedirect.com for such enquiries.

In addition, the general data protection information, which can be found in the Promoter’s data protection declaration at https://www.ambientedirect.com/en/ambientedirect-com/privacy/, applies to the processing mentioned here. In the event of contradictions, the information given here shall take precedence.

8. Final provisions

Should individual provisions of these Conditions of Participation be invalid or should there be a loophole, this shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions. The invalid or incom-plete provision, if any, shall be replaced by a corresponding statutory provision.
