The Rules are written in French. Any translation provided, communicated, or made available to the Participant in any form and by any means is for informational purposes only, and the French version shall prevail.
These Rules are subject to French law for their validity, interpretation, and execution, subject to the application of more protective mandatory provisions of the Participant's place of residence.
The action brought by the Participant against the Organizers may be brought either before the courts of the Member State in which the Organizers are domiciled or before the court of the place where the Participant is domiciled.

Reproduction, representation, or exploitation of all or part of the elements composing the Lottery or the Rules are strictly prohibited.
All trademarks, logos, texts, images, videos, music, and other distinctive signs reproduced on the site and on the sites accessible through hypertext links are the property of the Organizers.
Unauthorized reproduction of any of the aforementioned elements, without this list being exhaustive, constitutes an infringement of intellectual property rights and is subject to penal sanctions.
The Rules are made available by the Organizers on the Lottery page at the following link and can be downloaded in a durable format: https://sofitelboutique.com/en/win/rules.
The Rules can be sent in a durable format, free of charge, to anyone who requests them from the Organizers at customer.service@sofitelboutique.com.
The Organizers disclaim all responsibility for any technical, graphical, and typographical errors or omissions that may be contained herein.
By express agreement between the Participant and the Organizers, the Organizers' computer systems and files shall prevail, the Participant retaining the possibility of providing contrary evidence.
The computerized records, kept in the Organizers' computer systems, under reasonable security and reliability conditions, are considered as proof of the relationships and communications between the Organizers and the Participant.
It is therefore agreed that, except in the case of a manifest error, the Organizers may rely on, for the purpose of proving any act, fact, or omission, the programs, data, files, recordings, operations, and other elements (such as monitoring reports or other statements) of a computer or electronic nature or format, established, received, or stored directly or indirectly by the Organizers, including in their computer systems.
These elements thus constitute evidence and, if they are produced as evidence by the Organizers in any contentious or other proceedings, they will be admissible, valid, and enforceable between the parties in the same manner, under the same conditions, and with the same probative force as any document that would be established, received, or stored in writing.
Any operation, of any nature, carried out using the identifier and the code assigned to a Participant, following registration, is presumed to have been carried out under the responsibility of the Participant.
