During the contest period, we will search for videos of entrants who meet the above requirements via our social media pages using the hashtag and save them on our internal systems if they meet the above requirements, thus being suitable for the final evaluation (see section Implementation).

In the event of a dispute relating to participation, the legitimate owner of the social media profile used to publish the relevant video is considered to be a participant. The “rightful owner” is the natural person who, according to the terms of use of the respective social media provider, is to be regarded as the legitimate owner of the profile, in particular whose profile has been verified at an e-mail address owned by him. Potential winners may be asked to provide us with proof that they are the rightful owners, losing the right to the prize in the event that they cannot do so.

The participant is responsible for the correctness of their data, in particular their e-mail and / or postal address. Participants with invalid / incomplete data, e.g. non-functioning or inactive email addresses or fake profiles on the respective social media portals will be disqualified.

For the registration and implementation of the campaign, the costs for Internet access and usage fees may be borne by the participant’s Internet service provider. Each participant bears the costs of making the video, in particular the working time and expenses for any additional material requested.

4§ Implementation

On December 21, 2021, three (3) winners will be awarded by the jury from among all eligible participants from the “Competition Duration and Entry Requirements” section. In order to be considered for the jury vote, the video must have been published within the specified period. The selection by decision of the jury will therefore be made in particular on the basis of the following criteria:

“Fun” factor
Musical performance
Originality
Overall visual impression
The jury is made up of five (5) competent Thomann employees from the corresponding Thomann music departments.

Winners will be notified by us via messaging on the social media channel used for posting by the entrant. The winner must respond to the notification within the specified period and provide us with their name, email address and postal address so that we can identify them as a Thomann customer and credit the voucher award to their customer account; otherwise, the right to the prize lapses. In this case we reserve the right to determine a new winner through a further decision of the jury or to appoint as winners the subsequent participants from the first decision of the jury.

Prizes are non-exchangeable, non-transferable, cash payment is not possible and no other replacement prizes can be selected.

The winner will be disqualified if:

(a) it is not possible to send a notification of a win,

(b) the winner refuses the prize, or

(c) the voucher cannot be credited to the winner’s customer account and this is done for reasons for which we are not responsible,

In the above three cases we reserve the right to determine a new winner through a further decision of the jury or to appoint as winners the subsequent participants from the first decision of the jury.

Description of the award:
Three (3) vouchers will be awarded as prizes to three (3) winners with a value of € 1,000, € 500 or € 250 from Thomann GmbH. The 1st place receives the voucher with the highest value, the 3rd place the voucher with the lowest value. The prize is awarded by crediting the value of the voucher to the participant’s Thomann customer account.
