International Social Media Giveaways
Additional Terms for Social Media Giveaways (Instagram & Facebook)
Clause 1: Scope & Organizer
These Additional Terms and Conditions apply exclusively to all promotional giveaways
conducted by HeatX (hereinafter referred to as the 'Organizer') on its official social media
channels. By entering the giveaway, participants unconditionally accept these specific rules
alongside the general site terms.
Clause 2: Regional Eligibility & Age Restrictions
Participation is open solely to natural persons who have reached 18 years of age at the time of
entry and maintain permanent legal residence in one of the following countries: Norway,
Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Netherlands, Germany, Austria, France, or Belgium. Employees of
the Organizer, corporate affiliates, and their immediate family members are legally excluded
from entry.
Clause 3: Entry Protocol & Anti-Spam Mechanisms
Valid entry occurs exclusively via completion of the mandatory interactions outlined in the
respective social media post (e.g., following the account and submitting a contextual comment).
Sharing the promotional post or mentioning/tagging external users in the comment section
remains strictly voluntary and will exert zero influence on the outcome of the draw. Automated
submission systems, sweepstakes services, or individuals deploying manipulative strategies
(e.g., mass script generation) will be instantly disqualified.
Clause 4: Random Selection, Notification & Forfeiture
Winners will be determined by random draw following the exact expiration of the stated
participation window. Winner notification is executed exclusively via Direct Message (DM)
originating from our verified business profile. Drawn individuals must respond within 7 calendar
days; failure to respond results in immediate, absolute forfeiture, and a replacement winner will
be drawn. Prizes are non-transferable, non-negotiable, and completely void of cash redemption
alternatives.
Clause 5: Data Privacy Framework
In accordance with GDPR, personal telemetry captured during the giveaway (social handles,
names, and delivery addresses) will be processed strictly for operational execution and prize
fulfillment. Third-party disclosure is prohibited. All campaign-specific data will be permanently
purged upon final delivery confirmation.
Clause 6: Explicit Exclusion of Legal Recourse
Legal recourse is strictly barred (Der Rechtsweg ist ausgeschlossen) in accordance with the structural framework of promotional gaming exemptions (analogous to § 762 of the German Civil Code - BGB). The Organizer assumes zero liability for permanent or temporary technical disruptions, network latencies, or algorithm errors originating from the host platform architecture (Meta/Instagram).
Clause 7: Complete Meta Disassociation
This promotion is entirely independent of Instagram and Meta. It is neither sponsored,
endorsed, administered by, nor associated with the platform provider. All operational inquiries,
data tracking, and legal claims must be addressed directly to the Organizer, not Meta.
