The Sponsor only uses this Data for the duration and for the administration of the Competition unless specified otherwise herein. The main purpose of the data processing is to verify the Entrant’s eligibility to participate in the Competition and, in case the Entrant wins a price or is entitled to get a gift, to send or transfer the price or gift to the Entrant. We process the Entrants’ data for those purposes based on their meaningful and express consent. Entrants can revoke their consent at any time with effect for the future under the provided contact information below. Please note, that, should an Entrant revoke their consent during an ongoing Competition, their application can then no longer be considered and they will no longer have the chance to win a price. Based on their consent we will also use their data to send them information about products, services, events and other information worth knowing about the Sponsor(s) and/or Lovehoney Group. If Entrants do not wish to receive any further marketing promotions, they can revoke their consent at any time with effect for the future under the provided contact information. If the prizes are provided by someone other than the Sponsor, the Sponsor will send such Data to the sponsor of the relevant Prize or its service provider for the sole purpose of administering this Competition. Otherwise, the Data will not be disclosed or transferred to third parties without any necessary consent. The personal data is stored for as long as it is necessary for the above-mentioned purposes. In particular, the personal data of participants in the Competition will be retained until the winner(s) and, as the case may be, alternate winner(s) have been identified. Unless there is a legal obligation to retain the data due to statutory retention periods of civil, commercial and tax law, the data of those participants who did not win will then be deleted and the data of the (alternate) winner(s) will be deleted once the Campaign, including without limitation, the delivery of prices and gifts and the publication of the winners list, are completed. Any information submitted with an entry is subject to the Privacy Policy on the Sponsor’s website.

Nothing contained in the Official Rules shall be deemed or construed to create any legal commitment or obligation on the part of the Sponsor to treat any Entrant as an employee or a sales agent; without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Entrant shall be entitled to any commission or other remuneration in connection with the offer or sale of any Lovehoney brand product or service.
