§ 4 Implementation and Processing
(1) The winners will be informed by autobild.de in writing by post and / or email and their names can be published on the portals of autobild.de and / or the website of the respective cooperation partner. The winner expressly agrees to this form of publication. autobild.de is entitled to transmit the winner’s data to the cooperation partners in order to enable the prize to be delivered. If autobild.de only knows the winner’s email address, the winner will be notified by email. If the winner does not report their full postal address within four weeks of sending the notification, the claim to the prize expires and a new winner will be determined by lot. Entitlement to the prize also lapses if the prize cannot be transmitted within 6 months of the first notification of the prize for reasons related to the person of the winner. Other, possibly shorter periods may apply to vehicle and travel prices (see (4) and (5)).
(2) The item presented as a prize in the competition is not necessarily identical to the item won. Rather, there may be deviations in terms of model, color or the like. The award sponsor can select an item of average type and quality that is equivalent to the item presented as the prize.
(3) The material prizes (with the exception of cars and travel) will be sent by autobild.de or the sponsor or a third party commissioned by autobild.de or the sponsor by forwarding agent, parcel service or post to the postal address specified by the winner.
Delivery takes place only within the Federal Republic of Germany. Delivery is free of charge.
In the event that the delivery is made via a shipping company, the shipping company will contact the winner to arrange a delivery date. Deliveries are usually made Monday to Friday between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. The winner has the option of specifying a substitute address in his immediate vicinity to which the prize can be delivered in his absence. If the shipping company does not find anyone at the winner’s address or at the replacement address, a message will be left. The winner has to bear the costs of a new delivery himself.
(4) If a vehicle is won, the vehicle dealer responsible for the delivery will be named to the winner. If the vehicle is not picked up within the period specified by the award sponsor or the vehicle dealer, the prize is forfeited.
The winner bears all costs caused by collection and registration, as well as all other follow-up costs (taxes, registration costs, fuel, repairs, etc.). The same goes for motorcycles and comparable prices.
(5) In the case of travel wins, processing takes place exclusively in direct contact between the winner and the respective sponsor or a tour operator commissioned by them. If a travel date is not already specified in the competition itself, the date for the trip is reserved solely for the sponsor or tour operator. There is no entitlement to a specific travel date. If the trip is not accepted on the date or period specified by the sponsor or tour operator, there is no longer any entitlement to the prize. With the confirmation of the trip, the winner is subject to the travel conditions of the organizer.
The journey to and from the starting point of the journey (airport, train station, etc.) is at the expense of the winner, unless otherwise stated in the competition or expressly agreed. The same applies to all private costs that arise during the trip (minibar, telephone, etc.).
The value of the trip in the advertising text relates to the most expensive travel time and is therefore subject to seasonal deviations and currency fluctuations, depending on the time at which the trip is made available and used. The winner takes note of this and agrees that a possible difference in value in any form is excluded.
(6) If the transmission of the prize is not possible or only possible under unreasonable circumstances, the winner will receive an equivalent replacement.
The winner will also receive an equivalent replacement if the original prize is no longer available in the version presented (model change, seasonal goods, etc.).
(7) A cash payment of the prizes or a possible replacement prize is not possible under any circumstances.
(8th) The claim to the profit or the replacement of the profit cannot be assigned.

§ 5 Early termination of the competition
autobild.de reserves the right to cancel or end the competition at any time without prior notice and without giving reasons. Autobild.de makes use of this option in particular if, for technical reasons (e.g. viruses in the computer system, manipulation or errors in the hardware and / or software) or for legal reasons, proper execution of the game cannot be guaranteed. If such a termination is caused by the behavior of a participant, autobild.de can demand compensation from this person for the damage incurred.
