The presented rules of the game contain all the mandatory information provided by the code of consumption and proves, in case of litigation, that the game is fair and in keeping with Article L. 120-1.
Once you have completed the form, we will prepare your customized game rules in under 24 hours, adapted to your game mechanics.
The filing of the rulebook is the final step that will allow the organizer to launch his campaign game. According to Article L. 121-38 of the Consumer Code, the organizer is obligated to file the rules of his game with a notary. Nevertheless, the organizer's obligation to launch and prove a promotional action of collection or notoriety must absolutely be lawful and fair to its consumers.
Promotional operations leading to the achivement of a gain or advantage of any kind by random draw, whatever the modalities, or by the intervention of a random element, are lawful from that point on. Leading to a fair form in accordance to Article L. 120-1.
We check with you that your campaigns comply with the rules of confidentiality and with the protection of personal data, the presence of these rules on the participation forms, and the voluntary acceptance of these rules by participants.
Our pro account managers accompany you in the process and prepare a step-by-step compliance report. You will receive a complete report at the end of the Certigame validation process.
The collection form (online or on paper) is the key legal element of your campaign. It centralizes the information you want to receive, but it must also provide information about your game, your legal entity, the destination of the personal data that you collect, the consent, the legal reasoning of each element. Without this, at the risk of not conforming formally to the requirements of the GDPR, you may not be able to use this collection for any promotional or commercial action.
You send us your web pages, forms, and registration forms before launch and we check and modify - if necessary - the content, form, and processing (option on estimate) post-collection.
Drawing performed by a certified officer legitimizes the results of the drawing and thus avoids contestations from the participants.
Several forms of certified drawings are possible, whether by a sworn official agent, by one of our draft engines (CERTIDRAW), or by a Certigame agent. The drawing is conducted from paper ballots, from an Excel file containing participants, or directly from your participant database. The results are recorded by a partnering officer.
The certification seal is a logo - such as HTTPS server certificates - exposed at the collection site that the game has been validated and that the collection complies with the requirements of the GDPR. This seal is an image and a code sticked to the form, valid for the duration of the game, which gives a clear and concise message to your participants: "The game to which you will entrust your personal data has been verified. Yes, you can participate!".
Just choose the formula PREMIUM or FULL and once the validation process is complete, you will receive the activation codes of this seal.
The seal is valid for the duration of the game for games lasting less than 2 months. Beyond this, Certigame's management of a seal for an unlimited period is billed 149 € / month / 100,000 printings.
