Conditions for Participation in the Lottery of the St. Pölten UAS at the BeSt Vienna 2025
General Information
By participating, the participant confirms that they agree with the conditions for participation in the lottery and the relevant details.
The competition takes place during the fair BeSt Vienna 2025. We give away 1x2 Frequency 3-day festival passes for the FM4 Frequency Festival 2025 worth 446.93 EUR. There are no additional costs for the winner. The lottery is decided through a prize draw in camera. Participation in the lottery is possible exclusively by spinning the wheel of fortune at the BeSt Vienna and entering your details into the available forms.
The UAS reserves the right to review compliance with the conditions for participation, especially the eligibility for participation (and the personal data), and to exclude persons from the lottery, if applicable. Moreover, the St. Pölten UAS reserves the right to exclude participants from the lottery and to cancel and reclaim a prize without replacement if the participants have influenced or tried to influence the lottery by unfair means (e.g., incorrect, incomplete, misleading information or multiple entry, unless this is explicitly allowed).
In particular, the St. Pölten UAS reserves the right to change the lottery structure at any time or to (partially or entirely) cancel the lottery, without any claims derived from this. Prior announcement is not required, either. In case such a cancellation is caused by a participant’s actions, the St. Pölten UAS may hold this participant liable for compensation.
Eligibility
All prospective students of the St. Pölten UAS (or interested parties) are eligible for participation.
Notification of the Winner
The winners are notified via e-mail. If the winners do not come forward within 14 days after the sending date of the notification, the claim to the prize expires, and a new winner is determined. Any personal taxes, charges, fees, and follow-up costs shall be borne by the winner.
In case of a win, the St. Pölten UAS reserves the right to publish the name of the winner as well as their photo on the website of the St. Pölten UAS and, if applicable, in selected media. The winner, on the other hand, has the right to appeal against the publication by contacting the UAS at: Fachhochschule St. Pölten GmbH, Campus-Platz 1, 3100 St. Pölten, datenschutz@fhstp.ac.at, without affecting the lawfulness of processing up to this point. Within the framework, the winner cannot assert any claims pursuant to §§ 16, 43, 1041f Civil Code (ABGB), 86ff Copyright Act (UrhG), or any other claims, especially to any remunerations on whatever grounds.
Data Privacy
As the responsible data processor, the Fachhochschule St. Pölten GmbH, Campus-Platz 1, 3100 St. Pölten, datenschutz@fhstp.ac.at, takes the subject of data protection and confidentiality very seriously. The UAS therefore complies with the current national and European data protection regulations. The organisation is entitled to transmit the winner’s data to cooperation partners or third parties in order to enable the delivery or handover of the prize. Following the distribution of the prizes, the data of all participants (especially the provided e-mail address) is deleted immediately, while the winner’s data is stored for three years due to legal reasons.
All data subjects have the following rights:
- The right of access to their personal data
- The right to rectification, erasure, and restriction of processing
- The right of data portability
- The right to object to the data’s use – which does, however, not affect the lawfulness of processing up to this withdrawal
Data subjects can assert these rights by contacting the Fachhochschule St. Pölten GmbH as the responsible data processor (datenschutz@fhstp.ac.at).
- The right to lodge a complaint,
which is to be filed with the Austrian Data Protection Authority as the responsible supervisory body.
Final Provisions /Liability
Prizes are not transferable and non-redeemable in cash. Legal recourse is excluded. To the extent permitted by law, the St. Pölten UAS’ liability is excluded. In any case, the St. Pölten UAS cannot be held liable for material/legal defects of third party-sponsored prizes (e.g., from partner companies), nor for prize sponsors and partner companies themselves.
