These terms and conditions apply to the Sonic marketing activation “Fold and throw your paper plane” at EQUIP AUTO 2025 in Paris (hereinafter: “the promotion”)
1. Summary of the promotion
Visitors to the Sonic stand at EQUIP AUTO 2025 can join the paper plane promotion. By registering their details and folding a paper plane, participants have one chance to throw the plane into a transparent box on top of a Sonic toolbox. If the paper plane lands inside the box, the participant automatically has a chance to win the grand prize of a Sonic NEXT S9 toolbox with a 363-piece toolset. If the plane misses, the participant can choose a promotional item like a pen or key cord while stocks last.
2. Participation
Participation is open to persons aged 18 and older who visit the Sonic stand at EQUIP AUTO 2025 in Paris. To join, visitors must fill in their name and email address by scanning the QR code at the stand. By doing so, they automatically subscribe to the Sonic newsletter and must confirm their subscription through a double opt in. After signing up, participants fold a paper plane and write their name and email address on it. Each participant has one chance to throw the paper plane into the transparent box from behind the marked line. Each visitor may participate only once and each email address can be used only once.
