5. Referral Entries

A referral entry is awarded where a participant refers a new user to Paace during the Competition Period using the participant's unique referral link or code, and the referred user creates a new Paace account. Referrals to existing Paace users do not qualify. Paace reserves the right to disqualify referral entries it reasonably suspects have been generated fraudulently or by artificial means.

6. Prize

The total prize pool for each Challenge will be announced at the start of each Competition Period. The Prize will be awarded to one winner selected by random draw. The Prize is non-transferable and no cash alternative will be offered, save that Paace reserves the right to substitute a prize of equivalent or greater value if circumstances beyond its control make the original prize unavailable.

7. Draw and Winner Selection

The prize draw will take place on the first day of the following month for monthly draws and week for weekly draws. The winner(s) will be selected by random draw from all valid entries accumulated during the Competition Period. The draw will be conducted using a verifiably random method. The decision of Paace is final and no correspondence will be entered into.

Winners will be notified via the contact details associated with their Paace account within 5 working days of the draw. The winner(s) must respond within 14 days of notification to claim their prize. Failure to respond within this period may result in forfeiture and Paace reserves the right to select an alternative winner(s).

The Prize will be paid by bank transfer to a UK bank account nominated by the winner(s). Paace may require the winner to provide proof of identity and bank account ownership before payment is made. Paace will not be liable for any bank charges incurred by the winner in connection with receipt of the Prize.

9. Disqualification

Paace reserves the right to disqualify any entrant who:

1. provides false or misleading information in connection with the competition;

5. submits, or permits to be submitted, activity data that Paace reasonably believes to be false, artificially generated, or manipulated.

10. Fair Play and Activity Data Integrity

Entries earned through step activity must reflect genuine physical activity undertaken by the entrant. The use of any method, device, or technique to artificially generate, inflate, or manipulate step counts or other activity data is strictly prohibited. This includes, without limitation: mechanical devices (such as phone shakers or cradles), manually entered or edited health data, third-party applications or scripts that write synthetic data to Apple Health, Health Connect, or any other data source, attaching a device to another person, animal, or machine, or any other conduct intended to misrepresent the entrant's genuine activity.

Paace reserves the right to review and audit any entrant's activity data at any time, including during the Competition Period and prior to the award of any prize. Paace may take into account factors including, but not limited to, the source and metadata of recorded data, the distribution and pattern of activity, consistency with historical activity levels, and the presence or absence of corroborating signals such as distance and movement data.

Where Paace reasonably believes that an entrant's activity data is false, artificially generated, or manipulated, Paace may in its sole discretion:

1. exclude some or all of the affected entries;

2. disqualify the entrant from the competition;

3. withhold or reclaim any prize awarded; and/or;

4. suspend or terminate the entrant's Paace account. Paace's determination in such matters is final and no correspondence will be entered into.

Paace may apply a daily cap on the number of steps that count towards competition entries. Where a cap applies, it will be communicated within the Paace app.

11. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Paace accepts no responsibility for:

1. entries that are lost, misdirected, or fail to reach Paace for any reason;

2. technical errors or failures affecting entry or the draw;

3. any loss or damage arising from participation in or inability to participate in the competition; or

4. events outside Paace’s reasonable control that affect the running of the competition.

Nothing in these terms shall limit Paace’s liability for death or personal injury caused by its negligence, fraud, or fraudulent misrepresentation.
