Every member of KindofBook has the possibility to take part in a raffle by voting for the “Book of the Month” and agrees, in addition to our general terms and conditions, with the following terms and conditions for participation:

  • Time span: The monthly raffle starts as soon as the voting poll is online on this page. The end time for the voting and hence the raffle is mentioned on the same page. Tickets that are collected after this period are used for the next “Book of the Month” raffle, if it is planned.
  • Eligible participants: Participants who are eligible for the raffle are those who are registered on KindofBook.com, have reached the age of 18, have provided a valid e-mail address and accept the terms and conditions in full. Persons who are in close business relationships with KindofBook, and participating authors and publishers are excluded from the contest.
  • Participation: Every participant gets one ticket for the participation in the vote. If there are multiple votings e.g. for different countries, the participant can only collect one ticket, even if he/she takes part in multiple votings. However, an additional ticket can be collected for every new user that signs up by using a personalized link of the participant. Additionally, users who decide to receive our newsletter, get an additional ticket. The amount of collected tickets can be viewed on the result page after the vote during the entire voting period.
  • Raffle: A few hours or days after the voting ends, a draw will take place. Each ticket has an equal opportunity to win a price.
  • Notification: If you are the winner, you will be notified by e-mail. Intangible prizes like vouchers will be sent to the registered email address. For material prizes, the winner will be asked to provide an address. The data provided will be used only for the purpose of sending the prize. If no answer is received after 15 days, the prize is forfeited or will be raffled again in a future contest.
  • Restrictions on prizes: The drawn prizes for the current month can be viewed on the voting page. Prizes, which are shipped by our partner Amazon, can only be awarded to participants from countries where Amazon also ships the product. Sometimes specific prizes will be awarded for participants from certain countries. These specific prizes are found only on the local websites of KindofBook (UK, USA, DE).
  • Disclosure of information: Some prizes may be contributed by third parties, e.g. books by publishers or authors. We reserve the right, for the purpose of sending prizes, to pass on your data to third parties.
  • Liability: The raffle is organized by KindofBook. Other companies can be involved in providing raffle prizes and thus are also involved in shipping them. KindofBook is not liable for undelivered prizes from external companies and partners. Facebook, Twitter, or other websites where the contest is announced, are not economically or legally connected to the raffle.
  • Exclusion from participation in raffle: KindofBook reserves the rights to exclude persons from the competition. This happens in cases of attempts of manipulation, creating multiple separate member accounts e.g. to illegally receive more tickets for the recruitment of members.
  • KindofBook strives to technically perform the competition properly. No liability can be accepted for any technical error. There is no entitlement to a prize.
  • KindofBook reserves the rights to make changes in the allocation of tickets and/or prizes during the contest.
  • The organisers’s decision is final.
