4.7 In the case of scheduled Prizes, the timely delivery of the Prize does not constitute a main service of FCB .

 

5. Exclusion of Participants

5.1 FCB reserves the right to exclude Participants from participating in the Competition. This applies, in particular, in the event of culpable violation of the Terms and Conditions of Participation, e.g. the Participant makes false statements or manipulates or seeks to manipulate the participation procedure or the game or uses other dishonest means.

5.2 FCB can exclude Participants, if there are substantial suspicions for believing that they would make statements constituting a criminal offence, in particular, by using defamation or hate speech, in the offers or events organized by FCB.

 

6. Exclusion of distribution of Prizes

Where FCB or the Prize Sponsor subsequently determines that the Participant has substantiated reasons for exclusion within the meaning of Article 5 or was not entitled to participate pursuant to Article 2, they are entitled to deprive the relevant Participant of the Prize and to require its return.

 

7. Publication of names

FCB is entitled to announce the Winner’s name publicly on its online platforms or those of its cooperation partners, in particular the Prize Sponsor, in accordance with the competition data protection notice (cf. Section 14 below), unless the Winner expressly objects to such publication. The public announcement is not a winning notification and does not constitute a claim to the receipt of a Prize.

 

8. Discontinuation, Force Majeure

8.1 FCB is entitled to discontinue or terminate the Competition at any time. This applies, in particular in cases of force majeure or if, for other organizational, technical or legal reasons, proper execution of the FCB Competition cannot be guaranteed or continued. Participants are not entitled to assert any claims against FCB in such cases. FCB expressly reserves the right to claim for losses incurred if discontinuation is caused by the conduct of a Participant.

8.2 If, in the event of force majeure, FCB is temporarily unable to fulfill its obligation to the winner or is unable to fulfill its obligation to the winner at the originally scheduled time, the winner has no claim to fulfillment at the originally scheduled time. The Prize will be paid when the temporary impediment has ceased to exist. If FCB is temporarily unable to fulfill its obligation to the winner in the event of force majeure, the winner's entitlement to the Prize shall lapse. FCB is not liable for futile expenses incurred by the winner in anticipation of the Prize distribution, costs incurred or other damages.

8.3 Force majeure is an unforeseeable, unavoidable and extraordinary event. Such an event shall be deemed to exist in particular, but not conclusively, in the event of war, riots or assassinations, terrorist warnings, bomb threats, strikes or lockouts, natural disasters or fire, danger to life and limb, severe weather, epidemics, pandemics or quarantine, serious accidents, official measures or other official interventions and all similar circumstances.

 

9. Warranty

9.1 Prizes, provided in accordance with offers by Cooperating Partners or Prize Sponsors, are offered by FCB exclusively on their behalf. In such cases, FCB is not liable for timely and full distribution of the Prize nor for material or legal defects nor for inability of the Cooperating Partner to pay and the resultant consequences for the Competition.

9.2 Obvious defects in the Prize must be notified to FCB or the Cooperating Partner and Prize Sponsors, if these provide the Prize, within 14 days of delivery of the Prize. Timely dispatch of notification suffices to comply with the deadline.

9.3 FC Bayern Munich does not guarantee that all links and references made within the Competition are correct or complete.

9.4 In addition, the statutory guarantee regulations shall apply insofar as they are applicable, whereby the provisions limiting liability pursuant to Article 10 shall apply in case of assertion of a claim for damages.

FCB does not adopt the content of the comment as its own. By commenting on the raffle post, the Participant or his/her legal representative indemnifies FCB from any liability due to illegal statements as well as due to the infringement of intellectual property rights caused by the comment.

 

11. Relationship of verbal information with written Conditions of Participation

Where verbal information in the offer differs in terms of content from the present General Terms and Conditions of Participation or from the Conditions of Participation for individual Competitions (separate Conditions of Participation), with respect to the deviating information, only the provisions of the General Terms and Conditions or the written separate Conditions of Participation for the respective Competition will apply.

 

12. Amendment of the Conditions of Participation

FCB reserves the right to amend the Conditions of Participation. Changes to a Competition already underway, in particular changes to Competition rules, simulation of further users or absent users or interference with user selection or reduction of the Prize, are, however, not permitted.

13.1 Each Participant is limited to one Prize.

13.2 The Winner will be notified by FCB or the Cooperating Partner or Prize Sponsor after the end of the Competition, in text form and/or by telephone.

The claim to the Prize only arises upon notification. If the Prize notification is undeliverable, FCB is not obliged to make further inquiries.

13.3 The Participant must provide his correct postal address or telephone number. The claim to the Prize expires, if the Participant fails to provide the requested information within 14 days of notification of the Prize and the Participant is responsible for this.
