The lots are determined by the Organizing Company. They are non-transferable and non-assignable, with the exception of the case specified in the last paragraph of Article 5.
The prizes are strictly limited to their designation and do not include any additional costs or services that may be related to their enjoyment or use, which are the sole responsibility of the winners.

Any additional details and practical information for the delivery of prizes will be given to the winners in good time.
The winner's inability to benefit, in whole or in part, from the prize awarded and determined under the conditions that have been explained to him, resulting from his actions, for whatever reason, causes him to lose the benefit without any possibility of reimbursement or compensation of any kind.
In the event of force majeure as defined by Article 1218 of the Civil Code and French case law or in the event of exceptional circumstances beyond the control of the Organizing Company and/or its potential partners, the Organizing Company reserves the right to adjust the delivery of the prize to meet the constraints and best satisfy the winner's interests.

- Postpone the delivery of the batch to a later date;
- Replace the lot with another of equivalent value;
- Cancel the gain if no other solution is possible.
