Such circumstances not to be represented are particularly those that lie with the sponsors of the prizes.

If the competition involves images or photos submitted by the participant or posted on a social network, the participant guarantees to be the owner of the necessary rights to the submitted or uploaded photos/images. The organizer is not obligated to check the content provided by participants for potential violations of third-party rights. The organizer is entitled to reject these if the content is deemed illegal or violates good morals.

The organizer will appropriately credit the author when using the photo/image, as far as this is reasonable and possible considering the specific form of use.

13. The participant guarantees that they will not send content whose provision, publication, or use violates applicable law or third-party rights.
