Until the prize is handed over, LANIUS also expressly reserves the right to change the course of the game and/or to change the type and scope of the prizes, exchange them and replace them with another prize without notice or giving reasons. This applies in particular if the draw cannot go ahead as planned, e.g. due to disruptions caused by computer viruses, software and/or hardware errors and/or other technical/legal reasons which do not guarantee the proper conduct of the competition.

The data will be deleted after the competition has ended. If a participant would like their data to be deleted before the end of the competition, they can inform LANIUS of this at any time by email. In this case, participation in the draw is no longer possible.
