The service voucher will be issued electronically to the winner at the email address provided on the entry form within three business days after the winner is determined. Proof of electronic transmission will be retained by Tecleo.

The winner will receive a Tecleo service voucher with a maximum value of R10,000 including VAT.
No payment or other consideration will be required from the winner to receive the voucher.
The voucher:
• is valid for twelve calendar months from the date of issue;
• may be redeemed against one qualifying digital forensic, forensic data recovery, data recovery or e-discovery support case undertaken by Tecleo;
• may only be redeemed directly with Tecleo;
• may not be exchanged for cash;
• may not be transferred or sold; and
• may not be divided between multiple cases.
If the value of the services supplied is less than R10,000, the unused portion of the voucher will be forfeited, and no cash refund, credit or residual voucher will be issued.
If the value of the requested services exceeds R10,000, the winner may elect to proceed with the work and will be responsible for paying the amount in excess of the voucher value, subject to acceptance of Tecleo's quotation and standard terms and conditions.
The winner's entitlement to the voucher is unaffected by Tecleo's case acceptance requirements. However, any services performed under the voucher remain subject to Tecleo's ordinary service terms and may only be undertaken where Tecleo can lawfully and ethically accept the instruction, no conflict of interest exists, the instructing party has the necessary lawful authority in relation to the device, data or matter concerned, and the requested service falls within Tecleo's service capabilities.
If Tecleo cannot accept a particular matter for any of these reasons, the winner may redeem the voucher against another qualifying matter during the voucher's validity period.
