The Beauty Beat Product Sampling

Database Sign Up Terms & Conditions

1. About These Terms

  • These Terms & Conditions (“Terms”) govern your registration on The Beauty Beat’s product sampling database (the “Database”) and your participation in any product sampling campaigns offered through it.
  • By completing and submitting the sign-up form, you confirm that you have read, understood and agree to be bound by these Terms.
  • The promoter and data controller is Beauty Beat Events Limited (“The Beauty Beat”, “we”, “us” or “our”), a company registered in England and Wales. Contact: hello@thebeautybeat.co.uk.

 

2. What the Database Is

  • The Database is a mailing list of individuals who have expressed an interest in receiving information about The Beauty Beat’s product sampling campaigns and beauty giveaways.
  • Registering on the Database does not guarantee that you will receive any products, gifts or samples. It means you will be among the first to be notified when a sampling campaign is launched, at which point you will need to enter that specific campaign separately.
  • Each individual sampling campaign will be governed by its own specific Terms & Conditions, which will be made available at the time of that campaign.
  • The Beauty Beat reserves the right to run sampling campaigns at its sole discretion, including determining the number of recipients, eligibility criteria, product selection and campaign duration.

3. Eligibility

  • Registration is open to residents of the United Kingdom aged 16 years or over.
  • Employees, officers, directors, agents, contractors or interns of The Beauty Beat, its brand partners, affiliates, subsidiaries, or anyone professionally connected with its sampling campaigns are not eligible to participate in those campaigns.
  • By registering, you confirm that the information you provide is accurate, complete and up to date. The Beauty Beat reserves the right to remove individuals from the Database if information is found to be false or misleading.
  • The Beauty Beat reserves the right to decline or remove any registration at its sole discretion, including where it believes registration has been made using automated systems, fraudulent methods or multiple identities.

4. How to Register

  • Registration is completed by submitting the online sign-up form and passing any reasonable verification checks required by The Beauty Beat.
  • Only one registration per person is permitted. Multiple registrations using different email addresses or identities may result in removal from the Database.
  • You are responsible for ensuring your contact and postal details remain accurate. The Beauty Beat accepts no responsibility for failed deliveries resulting from incorrect or outdated information provided by you.
  • You may request removal from the Database at any time by contacting hello@thebeautybeat.co.uk or by clicking the unsubscribe link in any communication from us.

5. Product Sampling Campaigns

  • When a sampling campaign is launched, registered members will be notified by email and/or SMS. Entry into that campaign will require a separate submission or action as specified at the time.
  • All products and samples distributed through sampling campaigns are provided free of charge to recipients. No purchase is necessary and no purchase will increase your chances of being selected.
  • Products, samples and gifts are non-transferable, non-exchangeable and no cash alternative will be offered.
  • The Beauty Beat reserves the right to substitute any product with an alternative of equal or greater value where necessary due to availability or circumstances beyond its control.
  • The Beauty Beat does not accept responsibility for products lost, delayed or damaged in transit once dispatched, though it will take reasonable steps to address any issues reported by recipients.
  • The number of recipients for each campaign will be determined at The Beauty Beat’s sole discretion and may vary between campaigns.

6. Brand Partners

  • Some or all of the products distributed through sampling campaigns will be provided in partnership with third-party beauty brands (“Brand Partners”).
  • The inclusion of a Brand Partner’s products in a campaign does not constitute an endorsement by The Beauty Beat beyond the partnership itself.
  • Where a Brand Partner’s own terms apply to a product or experience, these will be communicated at the time of the relevant campaign.
  • The Beauty Beat is not responsible for the quality, safety, fitness for purpose or any harm arising from use of Brand Partner products. Any product-related concerns should be directed to the relevant brand.

7. Advertising Disclosure Obligations

  • All products distributed through The Beauty Beat’s sampling campaigns are provided free of charge and constitute “gifted” items for the purposes of UK advertising regulations.
  • If you choose to post about, review or otherwise share content relating to any product received through the Database or a sampling campaign on social media or any other public platform, you are required by law to clearly and prominently disclose that the product was received free of charge.
  • Acceptable disclosures include wording such as “gifted”, “PR gift”, “ad – gifted” or equivalent, in accordance with the CAP Code and ASA guidelines in force at the time.
  • You are solely responsible for ensuring your disclosures comply with applicable UK advertising standards. The Beauty Beat accepts no liability for any regulatory action, penalty or complaint arising from your failure to disclose.
  • Recipients are under no obligation to post or share any content in connection with any product received.
