Game rules and personal data
1. Organiser
The “Trust nothing. Verify everything.” game is run by Mindlapse, a French simplified joint-stock company (SAS) with share capital of €60,000, registered office at 9 rue des Colonnes, 75002 Paris, France, registered with the Paris Trade and Companies Register under number 939 571 535 (SIRET 939 571 535 00011, VAT FR56939571535) (“Mindlapse”), at booth ST05, Les Assises de la Cybersécurité, Grimaldi Forum, Monaco. The game runs from Wednesday 7 to Friday 9 October 2026, during the hours shown at the booth.
2. Entry
Free, no purchase necessary, open to adults attending the event. One entry per person for the whole event. Mindlapse employees may play out of competition and are not eligible for prizes.
3. How it works
A series of timed questions. A correct answer scores 500 to 1,000 points depending on speed; the last question counts double. Ties are broken by the shortest total answer time, then by the earliest finish time.
4. Prizes
The top three of the overall event leaderboard win a prize. The podium is revealed at the booth on Friday 9 October, late afternoon. Prizes are handed over at booth ST05 after the reveal, on presentation of an ID matching the registration (visual check only, no copy is kept). A winner who is not present is contacted by email; without a reply within 15 days, the prize is forfeited. Prizes cannot be exchanged, refunded or converted into cash.
5. Fair play
Any attempt to cheat (multiple identities, automation, tampering with requests) leads to disqualification. Mindlapse may hide an inappropriate nickname and delete an entry that breaches these rules.
