TERMS AND CONDITIONS: SWATCH X YOU – SWATCH CALLING

1. These terms and conditions (“the Rules”) govern the project „Swatch X You – the World is calling“ (“the Project”) administered by Swatch Ltd., domiciled at Nicolas G. Hayek Strasse 1, 2502 Biel-Bienne, Switzerland („Swatch“, “us”, “our”, “we”).

2.  

   Brief description of the Project:

   1. Each week during the Expo 2020 in Dubai, one or several countries will be celebrated. Swatch, as Official Partner of the Expo 2020, will take part in these celebrations by giving its customers, during this time only, the opportunity to print a customized watch based on an artwork inspired by the country in question. 

   2. Artists from all over the world (“Artists”, “you”) are invited, by an online call on Swatch’s website (www.swatch.com) to submit an artwork to celebrate their own country and to be used for print customized watches. Out of these, Swatch will select only one artwork for each country.

3. By submitting an artwork under this Project, you agree to comply with and be bound by these Rules and in particular to transfer all copyrights to your artwork to Swatch if it is selected.

4. You may only submit an artwork for a certain country if you are a citizen of that country. Further, you may only participate if you are an individual aged 18 or over, not under custodianship and not an employee of a Swatch Group company. Submission by legal entities will not be considered. By submitting an artwork, you confirm that you fulfill these conditions. We reserve the right to request evidence that these conditions are fulfilled (in particular ID card or passport copy) and/ to make exceptions on a case by case basis, at our sole discretion.

5. You have to submit the artwork, together with your complete name and Country you represent as well as the artwork title, until midnight CET on 8 August 2021, in high-resolution JPEG by email to swatch.calling@swatch.com. Incomplete, late, or otherwise faulty participations will not be accepted. You can only participate once and with only one artwork.

7. The selection of the artwork is at Swatch’s sole and absolute discretion and no reason will be provided for non-selection. The selected Artist will be notified via email until 9 September 2021.

8. Even if you follow these rules and instructions correctly, the possibility of events or conditions beyond our control means that we cannot guarantee your successful participation. The provision of any invalid, incorrect, or misleading personal information, and any breach of the Rules may, in our sole discretion, lead to disqualification from the Project and/or from receipt of any compensation.

9. Each Artist agrees that if the artwork she or he submitted is selected, she or he will sign, within five (5) days from the selection, an Assignment Letter to assign all copyrights to the selected artwork to us, allow Swatch to use his name, biography and picture in promotion of the Project, for the consideration mentioned in Section 12 below. If an Artist does not sign such Assignment Letter on time, Swatch may at its sole discretion disqualify him/her and select a different artwork.

10. You warrant and guarantee that the artwork submitted to us is your original artwork, and not copied partially or wholly from any third party design (regardless whether such other designs are under intellectual property rights registration or not). You guarantee furthermore that the artwork does not infringe any applicable law.

11. You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless against any and all damages, losses and expenses (incl. legal costs and attorney’s fees) arising out or in connection with any claim raised by any third party in relation to the artwork provided to us by you, in particular any claim that your artwork or its use in the Project infringes such third party’s intellectual property rights such as trademark, copyright, design or patent.

12.
