Participation

• Participation is free of charge.
• Only individuals aged 16 or over can take part.
• The notes will be allocated as part of the Waltz into Space campaign organized by the Vienna Tourist Board, Invalidenstrasse 6, 1030 Vienna (VTB). In order to implement the campaign, VTB will collaborate with the following partner: European Space Agency (ESA) – ESA Headquarters, 8-10 rue Mario Nikis, CS 45741 – 75738 Paris, Cedex 15.

Implementation and Execution

• You are only allowed to register once, meaning that only one note can be allocated to you.
• VTB is entitled to allocate notes at its own discretion, in particular if fewer or more people than the number of notes in The Blue Danube Waltz take part.
• VTB may amend or entirely discontinue implementation at any time.

Liability

Participation is free of charge. Particularly in the event that implementation is not possible for unforeseen technical or organizational reasons, VTB bears no liability for the actual broadcasting of names, for the combination of names and notes, for the storage of names on an audio storage medium and their transportation into space or for implementation of the entire campaign. VTB assumes no liability of any kind (except in case of personal injury, willful intent, or under product liability law).

Concluding Provisions

• Austrian law applies, to the exclusion of conflict of law rules. The sole place of jurisdiction is the competent court for the first district of Vienna, Austria.
• If any provisions of these Terms and Conditions of Participation are ineffective, this does not affect the effectiveness of the remaining provisions.
• The result of the draw for the allocation of notes is final and no correspondence will be entered into.
