3.5 If the reward includes travel: Each reward recipient (and, if applicable, his/her Guardian) must possess and show valid travel documents, prior to departure (e.g., valid passport or other acceptable government-issued identification) as well as any required visas. Each reward recipient is personally responsible to comply with any applicable travel requirements, in particular, but not limited to vaccination, quarantine requirements, etc. For the avoidance of doubt, the Organizer or Red Bull will not be responsible for such additional requirements. Travel insurance and spending money are the specific responsibility of the reward recipient. Once airline tickets have been issued, no changes will be permitted. The Organizer will determine airline, airports, flight itinerary and overnight accommodations in its sole discretion. Ground transportation may be provided instead of air transportation if the reward recipient resides within a small radius of the destination, and no compensation or substitution will be provided for difference in value.

The rewards are personal and non-transferable and may not be claimed by a third party on your behalf. Organizer may (but is not obliged to) offer cash alternatives for non-cash prizes (e.g., products and services) at its sole discretion.

3.7 To the extent permitted by law, the Organizer may replace any or all rewards with rewards of equal or greater value.

3.8 If any selected reward recipient does not fulfil the eligibility criteria, violates any applicable laws, or breaches any other provision of the Terms, the Organizer may select an alternative reward recipient in accordance with the selection process and/or require the return or reimbursement of any reward or its value where a reward has already been provided to the reward recipient.

3.9 If the selected reward recipient is under the age of majority in the country of residence at the time of claiming the reward, the Organizer is entitled to determine an alternate winner, if the acceptance of such reward requires the approval of the Guardian and no such approval is given.

3.10 If the reward includes travel: If the selected reward recipient is under the age of majority in the country of residence at the time of claiming the reward and if the attendance of a Guardian is legally required, the Organizer might cover the reasonable pre-approved travel costs of the Guardian if outlined in the Details of the Promotion. The Terms (in particular clauses that relate to travel and liability) also apply to such Guardians who accompany a minor reward recipient.

3.11 The reward recipient will remain liable for all taxes (including interest and penalties) due and payable to competent tax authorities in respect of any rewards (e.g. any prize monies payable). In the event that any relevant and competent tax authority has or brings into effect rules binding on the Organizer (or its whole or partial assignees or any of its affiliated companies) relating to the prior withholding of tax, the recipient agrees that he/she will be entitled only to the sums referred to in these Terms after deduction of any sums required under such rules. If any relevant and competent tax authority should make a tax assessment, claim, or demand of Organizer or any of its affiliates to pay any tax calculated by reference to sums payable under these Terms, the Organizer may request reimbursement of the full amount of such claim from the recipient.

3.12 The Organizer is entitled to nominate a third-party entity to pay out the reward to the reward recipient.

This includes but is not limited to the following countries & areas: Iceland, Italy, Croatia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Montenegro, Serbia, Colombia, Brazil, Hong Kong, Turkey, Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina and Republika Srpska of Bosnia and Herzegovina and United Arab Emirates. The Organizer will replace the cash reward with a non-cash reward permitted by applicable law, which does not necessarily have to correspond to the value of the original cash reward. Further, in case the value of the reward exceeds the maximum amount permitted by mandatory law, the Organizer reserves the right to replace such with a substitute reward which is worth less than the original reward.

3.14 If the reward cannot be made available and/or loses its sense of purpose due to an event of force majeure as outlined in clause 5., the Organizer will replace it with a substitute reward permitted by applicable law, which does not necessarily have to correspond to the value of the original reward. Reward recipients have no rights or claims in connection with the substitute reward offered.

4. ORGANIZER’S RIGHT TO CHANGE THE TERMS

Subject to applicable law and/or the approval of any applicable regulator, the Organizer reserves the right to change the details of the Promotion, such as dates, start time, location, format etc. Such changes will be available on the Website and apply to You with immediate effect. You should check the Website regularly for any changes that apply from the date they are uploaded.

5. FORCE MAJEURE

5.1 To the extent permitted by law, and without affecting your statutory rights, if in the Organizer’s opinion the Promotion is compromised by any event beyond the Organizer’s control and irrespective whether such event was known at the time or foreseeable (including but not limited to war, strike, riot, crime, epidemic, pandemic, widespread diseases, sudden legal changes, extreme weather, government orders, travel restrictions etc.), the Organizer may at any time modify, terminate, amend, suspend, postpone, cancel or extend the Promotion and/or the Terms without responsibility and liability for any amount or kind of loss or damage arising therefrom (whether direct or indirect). The same holds true if the Organizer determines that the Promotion cannot be conducted as planned or should a virus, bug, tampering or unauthorized intervention, technical failure or other cause beyond the Organizer’s control corrupt the administration, security, fairness, integrity or proper function of the Promotion. The Organizer will make reasonable efforts to inform You about any changes to the Promotion on the Website. However, You acknowledge and agree that the Organizer may make any such changes without informing or otherwise notifying You.

6. DISQUALIFICATION

Such behavior can vary widely, and may include without limitation using bots or other techniques to impede the Promotion or simulate participant actions, altering the normal behavior of the Promotion’s software, actions resulting in an unintended advantage for a participant as well as offensive language (e.g., inappropriate nicknames, vulgar, discriminatory or violent statements). In case the Organizer disqualifies a reward recipient, the Organizer will appoint a suitable runner-up in accordance with the selection process.

6.2 Furthermore, the Organizer may in its sole discretion disallow or suspend votes and/or disqualify any participant, if it has reason to believe that – where (social/public) voting is used as a selection process – anyone voting for such participant has been paid, incentivised or pressured in any way for placing their vote, either by the participant or any third-party.
