Effective Date: September 22, 2026

1. Introduction and Scope

The present Giveaway and Promotional Contest Terms (the "Contest Terms") govern all giveaways, prize draws, promotional contests, launch promotions, auction-linked promotions, user-registration promotions, loyalty promotions, and similar prize-based promotions conducted, sponsored, administered, or promoted by Tuners Vault Auction Marketplace ("Tuners Vault," "we," "us," or "our") through the website located at https://tunersvault.com, including all related pages, subdomains, promotional pop-ups, emails, listing notices, social media posts, and other promotional materials connected with the Tuners Vault platform (collectively, the "Platform").

These Contest Terms apply to each promotion made available by Tuners Vault unless a separate written set of official rules is published for a specific promotion. Where a specific promotion includes a promotional notice, pop-up disclosure, email notice, landing-page notice, or other campaign-specific description (each, a "Promotional Notice"), that Promotional Notice shall be read together with these Contest Terms. If a conflict exists between these Contest Terms and the Promotional Notice for a specific promotion, the Promotional Notice shall control solely with respect to the prize description, promotional period, entry method, geographic availability, winner-selection date, prize value, and any promotion-specific eligibility requirement expressly stated therein.

Participation in any Tuners Vault giveaway or promotional contest constitutes the participant's full and unconditional agreement to these Contest Terms, the applicable Promotional Notice, the Tuners Vault Terms of Service, the User Agreement, the Privacy Policy, the Cookie Policy, and all other Platform rules incorporated by reference. A person who does not agree with these terms must not enter, participate in, claim, or attempt to claim any prize.

2. Sponsor and Administrator

The sponsor and administrator of each promotion is Tuners Vault Auction Marketplace, owned and operated from the Province of Ontario, Canada. Unless expressly stated otherwise in a Promotional Notice, no seller, buyer, payment processor, carrier, vehicle manufacturer, component manufacturer, tuning house, importer, race team, motorsport sanctioning body, media channel, social media platform, advertising network, or third-party brand is the sponsor, administrator, guarantor, or underwriter of any promotion.

Any reference to a prize brand, vehicle manufacturer, component manufacturer, motorsport team, media property, or third-party trademark is made solely for identification of the prize or related product. No such reference shall be construed as an endorsement, sponsorship, authorization, approval, or affiliation unless Tuners Vault expressly states otherwise in writing.

3. Applicable Legal Framework

Tuners Vault conducts promotions with reference to applicable Canadian law, including the Competition Act, R.S.C. 1985, c. C-34, the Criminal Code, R.S.C. 1985, c. C-46, the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act, S.C. 2000, c. 5 ("PIPEDA"), Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation, S.C. 2010, c. 23 ("CASL"), and such provincial, territorial, state, federal, consumer-protection, privacy, advertising, and contest laws as may apply based on the nature of the promotion and the participant's jurisdiction.

Section 74.06 of the Competition Act requires that adequate and fair disclosure be made of the number and approximate value of the prizes, of the area or areas to which they relate, and of any fact within the knowledge of the promoter that materially affects the chances of winning; that the distribution of prizes not be unduly delayed; and that the selection of participants or the distribution of prizes be made on the basis of skill or on a random basis in any area to which prizes have been allocated. Section 206 of the Criminal Code creates offences in relation to the disposal of property by lots, cards, tickets, or any mode of chance, and Tuners Vault structures its promotions so as to avoid the characterization of any promotion as an unlawful lottery.

The operation of a promotion in one jurisdiction does not constitute a representation that the same promotion is lawful, available, or unrestricted in every jurisdiction. Tuners Vault reserves the right to limit, modify, suspend, or exclude participation from any jurisdiction where the promotion would be prohibited, restricted, subject to registration, subject to bonding, subject to translation requirements, subject to tax reporting, or otherwise burdensome to administer in Tuners Vault's reasonable judgment.

4. No Purchase Necessary

No purchase, bid, auction win, payment, commission charge, seller listing, or other monetary transaction is required to enter or win any Tuners Vault promotion unless a purchase-based or auction-linked mechanism is expressly permitted by applicable law and accompanied by an alternative method of entry. Where a promotion is connected to registration, participation in a listing, a winning bid, a Buy It Now purchase, or a minimum transaction threshold, Tuners Vault shall provide a no-purchase method of entry that affords eligible participants a substantially equivalent opportunity to enter the applicable promotion.

For auction-linked promotions, including promotions described as available to one random winning bidder, one registered user, or one user associated with a defined promotional period, eligible persons may enter without purchase by following the alternative entry instructions stated in the applicable Promotional Notice. Unless the Promotional Notice provides otherwise, a no-purchase entry may be submitted by emailing info@tunersvault.com with the subject line "Giveaway Entry," and by including the participant's full name, Tuners Vault username if any, country, province or state of residence, email address, telephone number, and the name of the applicable promotion.

No-purchase entries must be received during the promotional period stated in the Promotional Notice. Late, incomplete, automated, bulk, illegible, misdirected, or fraudulent entries may be disqualified.

5. Skill-Testing Question for Canadian Winners

Before being declared an official winner, a selected entrant who is resident in Canada must correctly answer, without mechanical, electronic, or other assistance, a time-limited mathematical skill-testing question administered by Tuners Vault or its designated representative. Tuners Vault may require the selected entrant to complete the question by email, telephone, online form, or signed declaration.

Failure to answer the skill-testing question correctly within the time and manner specified by Tuners Vault shall result in disqualification, forfeiture of the prize, and selection of an alternate entrant, provided that Tuners Vault is able to select an alternate entrant within a commercially reasonable period. No prize shall be awarded to a Canadian resident until the skill-testing question requirement has been satisfied.

6. Eligibility

Unless the applicable Promotional Notice states otherwise, promotions are open only to individuals who satisfy all of the following requirements at the time of entry and at the time of prize award.

Minimum age, meaning that the participant must be at least eighteen (18) years of age or the age of majority in the participant's jurisdiction of residence, whichever is higher.

Legal capacity, meaning that the participant must possess the legal capacity to enter into binding terms and to comply with all obligations arising under these Contest Terms.

Account standing, meaning that where the promotion requires a Tuners Vault account, the participant must maintain an account in good standing, with accurate registration information and no active suspension, restriction, fraud review, payment default, chargeback dispute, or unresolved enforcement action.

Jurisdictional availability, meaning that the participant must reside in a jurisdiction where participation is lawful and where Tuners Vault has not excluded or restricted the promotion.

Compliance record, meaning that the participant must not have engaged in fraudulent, abusive, manipulative, or unlawful conduct on the Platform, including shill bidding, payment abuse, false account creation, bid manipulation, seller fraud, buyer fraud, counterfeit activity, chargeback abuse, or misuse of another person's personal information.

Employees, contractors, officers, directors, agents, representatives, and immediate family members of Tuners Vault, together with persons living in the same household as such individuals, are ineligible to participate unless the Promotional Notice expressly states otherwise.

7. Promotional Period

Each promotion begins and ends on the dates and times stated in the applicable Promotional Notice. All times shall be interpreted according to Eastern Time in Ontario, Canada, unless the Promotional Notice specifies a different time zone.

Tuners Vault's computer systems and records shall serve as the official timekeeping mechanism for purposes of determining whether an entry was received within the applicable promotional period. Proof of transmission, sending, posting, or submission does not constitute proof of receipt by Tuners Vault.

8. Types of Promotions Covered

These Contest Terms are intended to cover the categories of Tuners Vault promotions described below, without limitation.

A launch registration giveaway is a promotion in which eligible persons who register for a Tuners Vault account during a specified launch period may be entered for a chance to win one stated prize, subject to any no-purchase entry procedure described in the Promotional Notice.

An auction-linked giveaway is a promotion in which eligible persons associated with one or more specified listings, such as winning bidders or qualifying users, may be entered for a chance to win one stated prize, provided that a no-purchase entry method is made available where required by law.

A minimum-threshold giveaway is a promotion in which eligibility may be connected to a lot, bid, transaction, or stated value threshold, such as a lot with a final price exceeding a specified amount, provided that the Promotional Notice identifies the applicable threshold and a no-purchase entry method is made available where required by law.

A user-based promotional draw is a promotion in which one or more eligible registered users are selected at random from eligible entries received during the promotional period.

A future promotional event is any later prize-based promotion, prize draw, giveaway, or comparable promotional event that Tuners Vault elects to conduct, unless Tuners Vault publishes separate official rules for that specific event.

9. Entry Limits

Unless the applicable Promotional Notice provides otherwise, each eligible person may receive no more than one (1) entry per promotion. Multiple accounts, duplicate entries, automated entries, entries submitted through scripts, entries submitted through bots, and entries submitted under false, incomplete, misleading, or third-party information are prohibited.

Tuners Vault may aggregate, reject, or disqualify entries that appear to have been submitted by the same person using multiple accounts, aliases, email addresses, devices, addresses, payment instruments, or other identifying information. A participant may not transfer, sell, assign, or exchange an entry.

10. Prize Description and Approximate Retail Value

The prize or prizes available for a promotion, the number of prizes, the approximate retail value of each prize, and any material prize conditions shall be disclosed in the applicable Promotional Notice. Unless expressly stated otherwise, each promotion shall award only the prize specifically described in the Promotional Notice.

Prize descriptions may refer to automotive and motorcycle parts, performance components, tools, equipment, apparel, gift cards, account credits, or comparable goods. Where a prize consists of a part or component, Tuners Vault makes no representation or warranty regarding its future market value, resale value, scarcity, investment potential, condition, remaining service life, output, compatibility with any vehicle, or fitness for any particular purpose, and gives no warranty of any kind in respect of it. A prize that is a used, removed, or take-off component is supplied as-is. Where a prize requires installation, the winner is responsible for arranging and paying for installation, and for ensuring that the component is lawful to fit and to use in the winner's jurisdiction.

The approximate retail value of a prize is determined in good faith as of the time the Promotional Notice is prepared. Market fluctuations, retail availability, exchange-rate movement, tariff changes, shipping cost variations, and later price changes shall not entitle any winner to a substitution, cash adjustment, credit, additional prize, or compensation.

11. Odds of Winning

The odds of winning depend on the number of eligible entries received during the applicable promotional period and, where applicable, the number of eligible entries allocated to a given geographic area, promotional period, account category, or promotional pool. Tuners Vault shall not represent that odds are fixed unless the total number of eligible entries is known and stated.

No participant is guaranteed to win. Participation in prior listings, frequent bidding, high-value bidding, seller activity, account tenure, and prior use of the Platform do not improve the odds of winning unless the Promotional Notice expressly states otherwise and such structure is lawful in the relevant jurisdiction.

12. Winner Selection

Unless the Promotional Notice states a different lawful method, potential winners will be selected by random draw from all eligible entries received during the applicable promotional period. The draw shall be conducted on or around the date stated in the Promotional Notice, or, if no date is stated, within a commercially reasonable period after the close of the promotional period.

Tuners Vault may conduct the draw manually, through a random-number generator, through a spreadsheet-based randomization method, through an internal draw procedure, or through a third-party tool selected in good faith. The records kept by Tuners Vault regarding entries, eligibility, draw procedures, and winner selection shall be final and binding, except where prohibited by applicable law.

13. Winner Notification and Claim Procedure

A selected entrant will be notified using the email address, account message function, telephone number, or other contact information associated with the entrant's Tuners Vault account or entry. The selected entrant must respond within the timeframe stated in the notification. If no timeframe is stated, the selected entrant must respond within seventy-two (72) hours after Tuners Vault sends the notification.

Before being declared an official winner, a selected entrant may be required to complete, sign, and return eligibility documentation, a declaration and release, a publicity consent, tax documentation, identity-confirmation materials, shipping information, and any other documentation reasonably required by Tuners Vault. A Canadian selected entrant must also correctly answer the skill-testing question described in Section 5.

Failure to respond within the required timeframe, failure to provide required documentation, failure to satisfy eligibility requirements, failure to answer the skill-testing question correctly, refusal to accept the prize, or return of a notification as undeliverable may result in disqualification and selection of an alternate entrant.

14. Prize Award and Delivery

Tuners Vault shall use commercially reasonable efforts to arrange shipment or delivery of the prize to the confirmed winner. Unless the Promotional Notice states otherwise, standard shipping costs for the prize will be paid by Tuners Vault. Any expedited shipping, freight surcharge, crating charge, special handling, import duty, surtax, customs brokerage, tariff, tax, remote-area surcharge, carrier fee, insurance fee, or other charge not expressly assumed by Tuners Vault shall be the sole responsibility of the winner.

Where a prize is shipped internationally, the winner is solely responsible for ensuring that the prize may be lawfully imported into the winner's jurisdiction, and the Cross-Border Duties, Taxes & Customs Policy applies to the shipment. Tuners Vault shall not be liable for customs delays, import refusal, seizure, inspection, regulatory restriction, taxes, duties, brokerage fees, lost shipments, damaged shipments, stolen shipments, carrier error, or delivery failure after the prize has been tendered to the carrier.

Where a prize is classified as a dangerous good for transport purposes, or is subject to emissions, safety, or import restrictions in the winner's jurisdiction, Tuners Vault may decline to ship it to that jurisdiction, may substitute a prize of equal or greater approximate retail value in accordance with Section 15, or may require the winner to arrange lawful collection or carriage at the winner's expense.

Tuners Vault may require a confirmed winner to provide a complete and accurate shipping address within a specified period. If the winner provides inaccurate, incomplete, or undeliverable shipping information, the prize may be forfeited.

15. No Cash Alternative and Prize Substitution

Prizes are non-transferable, non-assignable, and not redeemable for cash, credit, account credit, auction credit, commission reduction, substitute merchandise, or any other consideration, except at Tuners Vault's sole discretion.

Tuners Vault reserves the right to substitute a prize, or any component thereof, with a prize of equal or greater approximate retail value if the advertised prize becomes unavailable, delayed, damaged, discontinued, restricted, impracticable to ship, or otherwise unsuitable for award. No substitution shall give rise to any liability to a participant or winner.

16. Taxes and Reporting

All federal, provincial, territorial, state, local, foreign, and other taxes, duties, assessments, charges, and reporting obligations arising from acceptance or use of a prize are the sole responsibility of the winner. Tuners Vault may issue tax documentation, request taxpayer-identification information, or report prize awards to tax authorities where required by applicable law.

A winner's refusal or failure to provide required tax documentation may result in forfeiture of the prize. Tuners Vault does not provide tax advice and makes no representation regarding the tax consequences of accepting any prize.

17. Disqualification and Enforcement

Tuners Vault reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to disqualify any participant or selected entrant who provides false, incomplete, inaccurate, misleading, or unverifiable information; who enters through multiple accounts, third-party accounts, fabricated accounts, automated methods, or identity-misuse practices; who violates the Terms of Service, User Agreement, Buyer Agreement, Seller Agreement, Settlement Agreement and Policy, or any other Platform rule; who engages in scam activity, seller fraud, buyer fraud, payment fraud, chargeback abuse, counterfeit activity, shill bidding, bid manipulation, collusion, or other dishonest conduct; who attempts to interfere with the operation, security, fairness, or integrity of the promotion, the Platform, or any related system; or who harasses, threatens, abuses, defames, or attempts to intimidate any participant, winner, Seller, Buyer, Tuners Vault representative, or third party.

Disqualification from a promotion does not limit any other right or remedy available to Tuners Vault, including account suspension, permanent termination, cancellation of bids, removal of listings, withholding of promotional eligibility, reporting to payment processors, reporting to law enforcement, and pursuit of civil remedies.

18. Fraud Prevention and Disclosure to Authorities

Where Tuners Vault reasonably believes that a participant, selected entrant, winner, Buyer, Seller, or other User has engaged in fraud, attempted fraud, scam activity, identity misuse, payment abuse, counterfeit activity, theft, chargeback abuse, unlawful conduct, or conduct that threatens the safety or integrity of the Platform, Tuners Vault may preserve, review, use, and disclose relevant account information, transaction records, communications, shipping information, payment-related records, IP logs, device information, and other relevant evidence to law enforcement authorities, regulatory bodies, payment processors, fraud-prevention services, carriers, affected Users, legal counsel, or other competent recipients where permitted or required by applicable law.

Such disclosure may be made without prior notice to the affected User where notice would compromise an investigation, expose other Users to risk, interfere with fraud prevention, conflict with legal obligations, or otherwise be inappropriate under the circumstances.

19. Publicity Consent

Except where prohibited by applicable law, acceptance of a prize constitutes the winner's consent for Tuners Vault to use the winner's first name, username, city, province or state, country, prize information, likeness where voluntarily provided, and general winner status for reasonable promotional, advertising, announcement, social media, and Platform-related purposes, without additional compensation or further approval.

Tuners Vault may publish winner information in a limited form, such as a username, or a first name together with a province or state, or a comparable non-sensitive identifier. No winner's full residential address will be publicly disclosed, payment information, government identification, or sensitive personal information as part of winner announcements.

20. Privacy and Personal Information

Personal information collected in connection with a promotion will be processed in accordance with the Tuners Vault Privacy Policy and applicable privacy law, including PIPEDA, the GDPR, the UK GDPR, and the CCPA/CPRA where applicable. Personal information may be used to administer the promotion, verify eligibility, contact selected entrants, award prizes, conduct fraud-prevention checks, comply with legal obligations, maintain records, respond to regulatory requests, and protect the rights, safety, and integrity of Tuners Vault and its Users.

Where a participant provides consent to receive marketing communications, Tuners Vault may send commercial electronic messages in accordance with CASL and other applicable electronic-communications laws. Consent to marketing communications is not required to enter or win a promotion unless expressly permitted by applicable law and disclosed in the Promotional Notice.

21. Technical Errors and Platform Interruptions

Tuners Vault is not responsible for lost, late, incomplete, corrupted, misdirected, delayed, undelivered, or deleted entries, nor for technical, hardware, software, server, network, browser, device, internet-service, telecommunications, or email failures affecting participation. Entries that are tampered with, unreadable, incomplete, mechanically reproduced, generated by automated means, or otherwise inconsistent with these Contest Terms may be void.

If a promotion cannot be conducted as planned due to fraud, technical failure, unauthorized intervention, platform outage, security incident, legal restriction, force majeure event, or any other cause beyond Tuners Vault's reasonable control, Tuners Vault may cancel, suspend, modify, or terminate the promotion and, where fair and practicable, select a winner from eligible entries received before the affected event.

22. Release of Liability

By participating in a promotion, each participant releases Tuners Vault, its officers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, affiliates, service providers, advertising partners, payment processors, and representatives from any and all claims, demands, actions, liabilities, losses, damages, costs, and expenses arising out of or related to participation in the promotion, acceptance or use of a prize, inability to use a prize, prize delivery, prize defects, the installation or use of any component awarded as a prize, customs issues, tax consequences, shipping issues, technical failures, disqualification, or any promotional announcement.

Nothing in these Contest Terms shall exclude liability that cannot lawfully be excluded under applicable law.

23. Indemnification

Each participant agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Tuners Vault and its officers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, affiliates, and representatives from and against all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of or related to the participant's breach of these Contest Terms, violation of applicable law, fraudulent conduct, misuse of the Platform, submission of false information, infringement of third-party rights, or misuse of a prize.

24. Third-Party Platforms and Promotional Channels

Where a promotion is advertised or communicated through Instagram, Facebook, X, TikTok, YouTube, Google, email, a discussion forum, or any other third-party platform, such third-party platform is not the sponsor, administrator, or guarantor of the promotion unless expressly stated by Tuners Vault in writing. The participant releases such third-party platforms from all claims arising out of or related to the promotion.

Participation through a third-party platform may also be subject to that platform's own terms, rules, and privacy practices. Tuners Vault is not responsible for account restrictions, platform outages, content removals, advertising review decisions, or other actions taken by a third-party platform.

25. Modification, Suspension, and Cancellation

Tuners Vault reserves the right to modify, suspend, extend, cancel, or terminate any promotion where required by law, where administration becomes impracticable, where fraud or abuse is suspected, where the prize becomes unavailable, where technical issues impair fairness, or where continuation would expose Tuners Vault, Users, or participants to material legal, operational, reputational, or financial risk.

No participant shall have any vested right to continuation of a promotion. Where a promotion is cancelled before prize award, Tuners Vault may, in its sole discretion, award the prize from among eligible entries received before cancellation, substitute a comparable promotional opportunity, or terminate the promotion without awarding a prize where lawful and reasonable under the circumstances.

26. Void Where Prohibited

All promotions are void where prohibited, restricted, or otherwise unlawful. Tuners Vault may restrict participation in any province, territory, state, country, or other jurisdiction where the promotion would require registration, bonding, translation, licensing, tax withholding, additional filings, governmental approval, or other procedures that Tuners Vault elects not to undertake.

Participants are responsible for ensuring that entry into a promotion and acceptance of any prize are lawful in their jurisdiction of residence. Tuners Vault makes no representation that any promotion is available or lawful in every jurisdiction.

27. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

These Contest Terms, and any dispute arising out of or relating to any Tuners Vault promotion, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

Prior to commencing any formal proceeding, a participant must first submit written notice of the dispute to Tuners Vault at info@tunersvault.com, describing the nature of the claim, the promotion involved, the relief requested, and all supporting facts. The participant and Tuners Vault shall engage in good-faith informal resolution for a period of no fewer than thirty (30) days.

If the dispute remains unresolved, it shall be resolved in accordance with the arbitration and dispute-resolution provisions contained in the Tuners Vault Terms of Service. To the fullest extent permitted by law, all disputes shall be brought only in an individual capacity, and no participant may participate in a class action, class arbitration, representative proceeding, or collective proceeding against Tuners Vault. Those provisions apply only to the extent permitted by the law governing the participant concerned, and the mandatory statutory rights preserved in the Terms of Service are not waived.

28. Severability

If any provision of these Contest Terms is determined by a court, arbitrator, or competent authority to be invalid, unlawful, or unenforceable, such determination shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions. The affected provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to render it valid and enforceable, or, where modification is not possible, severed from these Contest Terms.

29. Entire Agreement

These Contest Terms, together with the applicable Promotional Notice, the Terms of Service, the User Agreement, the Privacy Policy, the Cookie Policy, and any other Platform rule incorporated by reference, constitute the entire agreement between the participant and Tuners Vault with respect to the applicable promotion. No oral statement, informal message, social media comment, customer-support response, or promotional description shall modify these Contest Terms unless expressly incorporated into a written Promotional Notice issued by Tuners Vault.

30. Contact Information

For questions regarding these Contest Terms, a specific promotion, eligibility, prize claims, no-purchase entry, or privacy matters connected with a promotion, please contact Tuners Vault by email at info@tunersvault.com or through the website at https://tunersvault.com.

31. Acknowledgement

By entering, participating in, or attempting to claim a prize in any Tuners Vault giveaway or promotional contest, the participant confirms that the participant has read these Giveaway and Promotional Contest Terms in their entirety, understands their legal effect, satisfies the applicable eligibility requirements, and agrees to be bound by all terms, conditions, limitations, releases, and obligations set forth herein.
