1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using Brandprize Giveaways ("the Platform," "we," "us," or "our"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the Platform.
2. Who We Are
Brandprize Giveaways is a software platform that enables businesses and individuals ("Creators") to create and manage giveaway campaigns. We provide tools for entry collection, coupon distribution, winner selection, and compliance guidance.
3. Creator Accounts & Obligations
Creators who purchase a plan and launch giveaway campaigns agree to the following obligations:
- Honor Participation Coupons: You must accept and redeem any valid participation coupon issued through your giveaway campaign.
- Honor Prize Winner Coupons: You must deliver the prizes stated in your giveaway to verified winners. Prizes must be as described and of the stated value.
- Accurate Representations: All prize descriptions, values (ARV), and campaign details must be truthful and accurate.
- Legal Compliance: You are responsible for ensuring your giveaway complies with applicable federal, state, and local laws, including sweepstakes and promotional regulations.
- No Fraudulent Campaigns: Creating giveaways you do not intend to fulfill is strictly prohibited and may result in account termination and legal action.
4. Credits & Payments
- All plan purchases are one-time payments. There are no recurring charges or subscriptions.
- Credits are platform-wide — each credit can launch one giveaway campaign or one survey-for-coupon campaign. Credits never expire.
- Credits used to launch a campaign are non-refundable once the campaign is live.
- Unused credits may be refunded within 14 days of purchase if no campaign has been launched. Contact us at support@brandprizegiveaways.app.
- Payments are processed securely by Stripe. We never store your card details.
- E-gift card prizes purchased through the Tremendous integration are pre-paid via Stripe at the time of campaign setup. Once an e-gift card is sent to a winner, the purchase is non-refundable.
5. Participant Rights
All giveaways on the Platform are free-to-enter sweepstakes. No purchase is necessary to enter or win. Participants have the right to:
- Receive their participation coupon upon valid entry, either as a QR code for in-store redemption or a redemption link for online use.
- Have their prize delivered if selected as a winner. Prizes may be fulfilled as physical items, in-store coupons, or digital e-gift cards sent via email.
- Contact Brandprize if a Creator fails to honor a coupon or prize at support@brandprizegiveaways.app.
6. Prohibited Conduct
You may not use the Platform to:
- Create fraudulent, deceptive, or misleading giveaways.
- Collect personal data in violation of applicable privacy laws.
- Engage in illegal promotional schemes, lotteries, or gambling.
- Harass, spam, or abuse participants.
- Circumvent technical measures or access the platform in unauthorized ways.
7. Platform Liability
Brandprize provides software tools and compliance guidance. We are not responsible for:
- A Creator's failure to honor prizes or coupons.
- Legal violations by Creators in running their campaigns.
- Disputes between Creators and participants.
The Platform is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. Our aggregate liability shall not exceed the amount you paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim.
8. Account Termination
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms, including but not limited to: fraud, failure to honor prizes, illegal activity, or abuse of participants.
9. Modifications
We may update these Terms from time to time. Continued use of the Platform after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms. We will notify registered users of material changes by email.
10. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the United States. Any disputes shall be resolved through binding arbitration, except where prohibited by law.
11. Third-Party Prize Fulfillment (Tremendous)
Creators may choose to offer digital e-gift cards as prizes through our integration with Tremendous, a third-party gift card fulfillment service. The following terms apply:
- Pre-Purchase: Creators pre-purchase e-gift cards via Stripe at campaign setup. Tremendous fulfills and delivers the e-gift card to the winner's email address upon winner selection.
- Brand Availability: Available gift card brands are determined by Tremendous and may change without notice. Brandprize does not guarantee availability of any specific brand.
- Delivery: E-gift cards are delivered electronically via email. Brandprize and Tremendous are not responsible for delivery failures due to incorrect email addresses or spam filters.
- Redemption: E-gift card terms, expiration, and redemption conditions are governed by the issuing brand and Tremendous, not Brandprize.
- Privacy: Winner email addresses are shared with Tremendous solely for the purpose of e-gift card delivery. See our Privacy Policy for details.
12. Enterprise Coupon Validation API
Creators and merchants may integrate Brandprize coupon validation into their own platforms (e-commerce sites, POS systems, mobile apps) via our REST API. The following terms apply:
- API Keys: Merchants receive a unique API key linked to their Brandprize account. API keys must be kept secure and not shared with unauthorized parties.
- Acceptable Use: The API may only be used to validate, redeem, and track Brandprize coupons issued through your own giveaway campaigns. Using the API to access or manipulate coupons from other creators' campaigns is strictly prohibited.
- Rate Limits: The API is subject to rate limits to ensure fair usage. Excessive requests may result in temporary suspension of API access.
- Data Retention: API request logs (including IP addresses and timestamps) are retained for 90 days for security and fraud prevention purposes.
- Key Revocation: Brandprize reserves the right to revoke or suspend API keys that are compromised, abused, or used in violation of these Terms.
13. Advanced Entry Methods & AI Verification
In addition to standard entry methods, Creators may configure advanced methods that use AI verification:
- Polls & Surveys: Collect responses to polls and multi-question surveys. Responses are stored with the participant's entry and visible to the Creator.
- Photo Challenges: Participants submit a photo matching the Creator's prompt. Our AI vision model scores each submission (0–100) against the prompt. Creators set an auto-approval threshold and may manually review, approve, or reject any submission.
- Virtual Safari Hunts: Participants must be within a geofenced location (verified by GPS) and then submit an AI-scored photo. Creators review below-threshold submissions in their dashboard.
- Photo Data: Submitted photos and AI scores are stored with the entry and visible to the Creator. Participants should only submit photos they own and consent to being evaluated by AI.
14. Ad Campaigns (Audience Re-Targeting)
Creators may launch paid Ad Campaigns to re-target their past participants with promotions for new giveaways. The following terms apply:
- Channels: Ads are delivered via branded email and in-app alerts. Mobile push notifications are not used for Ad Campaigns.
- CPM Pricing: Creators pay per thousand participants reached, charged upfront via Stripe. Email and in-app rates are shown at campaign setup.
- Consent & Opt-Out: Participants may unsubscribe from promotional emails at any time via the link in every ad email, and may disable in-app notifications in their settings. Transactional messages (entry confirmations, winner notices) are not affected.
- CAN-SPAM Compliance: All ad emails include a clear sender identity and an unsubscribe mechanism, as required by law.
15. Biometric App Lock (Face ID / Touch ID)
Users who install the Brandprize app as a PWA may enable a biometric app lock that requires Face ID, Touch ID, or a device biometric to open the app. The following terms apply:
- Device-Local: Biometric verification is performed entirely on your device using the WebAuthn standard. Your fingerprint or face data is never collected, transmitted, or stored by Brandprize.
- Local Credential: A device-bound cryptographic credential is stored in your browser/OS keychain. Removing the app or clearing storage disables the lock.
- Every App Open: When enabled and the app is installed, the lock is required each time you open or return to the app — similar to a banking app.
- Fallback: You can disable the biometric lock at any time from Settings, which restores standard email/password login.
16. Survey-for-Coupon Campaigns
Creators may run standalone Survey-for-Coupon campaigns that reward participants with an instant coupon upon completing a short survey — no contest entry required. The following terms apply:
- Instant Reward: A unique SURV- coupon is generated and emailed automatically once the participant completes all required questions.
- Honor Rewards: Creators must honor SURV- reward coupons on the same terms as participation coupons.
- Data Use: Survey responses are shared with the Creator for their campaign and analytics. Participants should only submit information they consent to share.
- Credits: Each published survey-for-coupon campaign consumes one platform credit (your first campaign is free).
17. Mini-Games & Instant-Win Coupons
Creators may add game-based entry methods — Spin the Wheel, Scratch Cards, Plinko, Coin Flip, and Memory Match — and optionally enable instant-win coupons for random players. The following terms apply:
- Optional Instant Win: Creators set a win probability. Players who win receive a unique instant-win coupon immediately.
- Fairness: Win outcomes are determined by the platform's random logic at the time of play and cannot be guaranteed.
- No Purchase Necessary: Game entry methods are free to play as part of a free-to-enter sweepstakes.
- Honor Coupons: Creators must honor any instant-win coupons issued through their games.
18. Geo-Fence Push Alerts
For giveaways with a Geo Check-In entry method, Brandprize can send proximity-based push notifications to installed-app participants who have granted location permission. The following terms apply:
- Opt-In Only: Participants must explicitly grant location permission. No location data is collected from participants who do not opt in.
- Background Use: When enabled, the app may check proximity to sponsor locations in the background to deliver the alert. Geolocation is checked only for this purpose — no always-on tracking.
- Redeem-on-Arrival: Alerts deep-link to the participant's QR coupon so they can redeem instantly in-store.
- Revocable: Participants can disable location permission or notifications at any time from their device settings.
19. Interactive Video Campaigns (BrandPrize Interactive™)
BrandPrize Interactive is a premium add-on that lets Creators attach time-coded or live interactions (polls, giveaways, instant-win drops, coupons, lead capture) to a YouTube video. The following terms apply:
- Subscription: Interactive is available as a recurring paid subscription. Billing is handled by Stripe and may be canceled at any time; access continues until the end of the current period.
- YouTube Content: Creators embed third-party YouTube videos and are responsible for having the rights to use them. Brandprize does not host or modify the video itself — interactions appear beside the player, never overlaid on it.
- Participant Data: Interaction responses (poll votes, survey answers, lead-capture emails, coupon claims) are collected and shared with the Creator.
- Compliance: All interactions remain subject to the same sweepstakes compliance rules as standard giveaways.
