The Winners will be announced via email on March 10, 2025. Rituals will provide the details via email. The request is that the Winners respond to the notification as soon as possible and in any case before March 17, 2025, via email. If there is no response, we unfortunately cannot include the selected Participant in the Program, and the right to participate in the Program is forfeited. RRituals will then not select an alternative winner from the other Participants. In such a case, the original winner does not have the right to claim the prize or any other form of monetary or other compensation. Participants who are not selected will be informed via email.

INTERNAL USE

Rituals asks Participants/Winners for their permission to use their Submission and future created content in internal communication. Granting or not granting permission for the use of the Winners' Submission is not a requirement for participation in the Program. However, the Winners must sign a separate contract, in addition to their employment contract, for participation in the Program, and they will not be financially compensated for their participation on top of their salary. When a Winner leaves Rituals, this automatically means that participation in the Program ends on the date of termination of employment. From that moment on, the Winner will no longer indicate in (new) social media posts that they are an Influencer or otherwise give the impression of being a participant in the Program for Rituals.
