1. Contest Organizer

We are the organizer of our Instagram contests,

Friedrich-Ebert-Str. 6
42103 Wuppertal

Tel.: 0202-39309572
Email: hello@mimosring.com 

Website: www.mimosring.com

hereinafter referred to as "we" or "us". We organize our Instagram contests under our brand name MIMOS on our Instagram account @mimosring.

2. Eligibility

All natural persons who are at least 18 years old and reside in Germany or Austria are eligible to participate.

3. Conditions of Participation

To participate in one of our Instagram contests, participants must:

1. Follow our Instagram account (@mimosring),
2. Like the corresponding contest post on Instagram, and
3. Comment on the corresponding contest post on Instagram.

Optionally, participants can tag other Instagram accounts in the comments and share the contest in their own Instagram Story. However, these optional actions are voluntary and do not increase the chances of winning.

The exact conditions of participation will be described in detail by us in the respective post for each Instagram contest.

Each person may only participate in a contest once. Multiple comments or likes do not increase the chances of winning.

4. Contest Duration

The exact start and end time of each Instagram contest will always be announced by us in the corresponding Instagram post. Persons who meet the conditions of participation only after the specified end time will not be considered for the draw.

5. Prize

The type and value of the prize are determined by us and vary depending on the contest. The prize can consist of a handcrafted piece of jewelry from our collection, another one of our products, or a MIMOS ring. The value and selection of the piece of jewelry, product, or MIMOS ring will be determined by us.

Note on the MIMOS ring: The MIMOS ring can be custom designed by the winner using our configurator. Should the winner configure a MIMOS ring whose price exceeds the value of the prize set by us, the price difference must be borne by the winner themselves.

The prize is non-transferable and cannot be paid out in cash or exchanged.

6. Winner Determination

The winners of our Instagram contests are always determined by random selection using a random generator from all participants who have met the aforementioned conditions of participation. The draw will take place within 24 hours after the end of the respective contest. Any time deviations will be announced by us in stories or via a post.

The winners will be contacted by us via a private message on Instagram. Winners must respond to the message within 24 hours to confirm the prize. Otherwise, a new winner will be drawn.

For each of our Instagram contests, only one winner will usually be drawn, unless we explicitly communicate a different rule in the respective contest post.

By participating in the contest, the winner agrees that their Instagram username may be publicly mentioned as part of the prize announcement.

7. Prize Collection/Shipping

The prize can either be collected at MIMOS at Friedrich-Ebert-Str. 6 in 42103 Wuppertal or shipped to the address provided by the winner. We will cover the shipping costs within Germany. Additional costs may apply for international shipping, which will be borne by the winner.

8. Invoicing

As part of the prize, the winner will receive a prize confirmation invoice, even if the amount is 0 Euro.

Note on the MIMOS ring: Should the value of the MIMOS ring configured by the winner exceed the determined prize value, a partial invoice will be issued, showing the difference to the prize value. This difference must be paid by the winner.

Invoices are issued both for prize confirmation and for the proper handling of the contest.

9. Data Protection Declaration

As part of our Instagram contests, we process personal data in accordance with the data protection provisions of the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation). Below, we inform you how we collect, process, and use your personal data in the context of the contests.

9.2 Data Collected

As part of the Instagram contests, we collect personal data from participants. This includes:

• Instagram usernames (through comments under contest posts),
• in case of a win: first and last name, address, email address, and possibly phone number for contact purposes.

9.3 Purpose and Legal Basis of Data Processing

The personal data collected as part of the Instagram contests will be used exclusively for the purpose of carrying out the contests. This includes, in particular:

• determining the winners,
• notifying the winners,
• shipping the prize, and
• issuing the prize confirmation invoice or partial invoice.

The data processing is based on Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR (performance of a contract), as the data is required for carrying out the contests and fulfilling obligations towards the winners.

9.4 Transfer of Data to Third Parties

Personal data will generally not be disclosed to third parties. An exception only applies if this is necessary for the processing of the contest, e.g., to shipping service providers for prize delivery.

9.5 Storage Duration

The personal data collected during the Instagram contests will be stored after the respective contest has ended and the prize has been delivered. Since the contests remain visible on our Instagram feed even after they have been carried out, and we store the winners' data for the creation of prize confirmation invoices and for tax purposes in our invoicing program and our digital customer file, we retain the data for a longer period. These will be kept in accordance with legal retention obligations, particularly with regard to tax law requirements. Data will be deleted at the latest after the expiry of statutory periods.

9.6 Data Subject Rights

As a data subject, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

• Right to Information: You have the right to request information about whether and which personal data of yours we process.
• Right to Rectification: You can request the correction of inaccurate or incomplete data.
• Right to Erasure: You have the right to request the erasure of your personal data, provided there are no legal retention obligations.
• Restriction of Processing: Under certain conditions, you can request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
• Right to Object: You can object to the processing of your personal data at any time.
• Right to Data Portability: You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format.

11. Exclusion from the Contest

We reserve the right to exclude participants from Instagram contests who violate the conditions of participation or use unauthorized means.

12. Severability Clause

Should individual provisions of these terms and conditions of participation be wholly or partially ineffective or unenforceable, or become ineffective or unenforceable after the contest has been carried out, the validity of the remaining provisions shall remain unaffected. The ineffective or unenforceable provision shall be replaced by an effective and enforceable provision whose effects come closest to the objective of the ineffective provision. The same applies in the event of a loophole.
