Contact forms
In order to submit a message through our contact form, it is required to enter a valid email address (otherwise we won’t be able to reply to your message).

For participating in surveys, raffles and quizzes on our website, it is generally required to enter a valid email address.

If permission to keep the address is declined, the address will be deleted as soon as possible, i.e. after we have processed your message or when the relevant raffle or quiz has ended.
