How we handle personal data:
The only data we will hold is our subscriber list of usernames which is available to us from YouTube – these usernames will be used to create the entry list and select a winner.
We will ask the winner for a shipping address, this personal data will be used ONLY to pass to our courier. We will NOT share this personal data with anyone else and we will not store it after the guitar has been delivered successfully.
We are NOT asking for personal data in order to enter this competition, only claim the prize so please do not send us your personal data unless you have won. Please do not send personal data to anyone pretending to be Giant Guitars.
Affiliations and sponsors:
This competition is run solely by Giant Guitars and is in no way, whatsoever, associated with YouTube, Google, Instagram, Facebook or any other entity.
What is the actual prize?
The prize is our blue Partscaster guitar that we made for less than £200 (photos at the top of this page) – check out that video on our YouTube channel.
We will give the guitar a clean and basic setup prior to shipping.
How long will shipping take?
This very much depends on where the winner is located. We are UK based so if it is within the UK it will be a matter of days however please allow for longer for locations outside the UK.
The shipping will be an economy service but we will provide full tracking details once it is dispatched.
Please note we cannot account for courier losses and, although we hope this will never happen, if the courier loses your prize we will not be in a position to replace it due to the custom/unique nature of these guitars 🙁 we are sorry but sometimes couriers lose items.
Custom fees for imports:
Shipping to the winner is 100% free, we will pay for that however some countries may wish to change import taxes at the point of entry/prior to delivery.
As we are based in Northern Ireland we are currently still aligned with the UK and EU so there should not be any customs to pay for UK or EU winners – if you are from UK or EU and win this guitar please contact us for more info should your customs department attempt to charge fees.
The guitar will be declared as a gift and the value set so hopefully there will not be any fees for those outside of UK and EU however every country has it’s own sets of rules which we cannot completely account for, these customs fees will be the winner’s responsibility to pay should they occur.
