Excluded are accounts held by employees of the organizer as well as employees of cooperation partners who are or were involved in the creation or execution of the competition.
(3) Every eligible person who submits any comments under the exact email address connected to their Cardmarket account at the bottom of this page during the participation period automatically participates in the competition, provided at least one comment clearly identifies at least one card whose illustration matches one of the partially obscured images posted above.
(4) Any other registration or application to participate is neither required nor possible. In particular, tickets submitted through the organizer's support system cannot be considered.
§ 3 Processing, payment, notification, publication of winner data
(1) Following the conclusion of the participation period, a randomized drawing between all different email addresses thus submitted shall determine sixteen winners, excluding those whose comments do not identify any card whose illustration matches one of the partially obscured images posted above and excluding those whose comments do not identify clearly, at the organizer's sole discretion, a maximum of fifteen cards.
(2) For each winner selected in this manner the organizer shall determine the total number of cards that the winner's comments clearly identified, at the organizer's sole discretion, and whose illustrations match one of the partially obscured images posted above.
(3) Each winner is entitled, for each of their cards thus determined, to have €5 added to their Cardmarket account's balance. All such funds shall be credited no later than ten days after the end of the participation period.
(4) Payment of any prize in cash, in kind, its exchange or transfer to other persons or accounts is not possible.
(5) The organizer may identify winners by username on the organizer's website and/or on the organizer's social media channels.
§ 4 Exclusion from the competition
The organizer may exclude from the competition certain participants who violate these conditions of participation or who attempt to influence the competition or the draw with the help of technical manipulation without notice or explanation. In such a case, prizes may also be subsequently withdrawn and reclaimed.
§ 5 Exclusion of warranty
The organizer points out that the availability and function of the competition cannot be guaranteed. The competition may be terminated or removed due to external circumstances and constraints, without this giving rise to any claims by participants against the organizer. The organizer reserves the right to change the conditions of participation at any time.
§ 6 Liability
(1) The following exclusions and limitations of liability shall apply to the liability of the organizer for damages, irrespective of any other legal obligations regarding claims.
(2) The organizer shall be liable without limitation insofar as the cause of the damage is based on intent or gross negligence.
(3) Furthermore, the organizer shall be liable for the slightly negligent breach of essential obligations, the breach of which jeopardizes the achievement of the purpose of the contract, or for the breach of obligations the fulfillment of which is essential to the proper implementation of the competition and on the compliance with which the contractual partners regularly rely. In this case, however, the organizer shall only be liable for the foreseeable damage typical for the contract. The organizer shall not be liable for the slightly negligent breach of obligations other than those specified previously.
(4) The above limitations of liability shall not apply in the event of injury to life, limb, or health, for a defect following the assumption of guarantees regarding the quality of a product, and in the event of fraudulently concealed defects. Liability under the Product Liability Act remains unaffected.
(5) Insofar as the liability of the organizer is excluded or limited, this shall also apply to the personal liability of employees, representatives, and vicarious agents of the organizer.
