I don't think so, in the main. Often they try to sign you up to their mailing list but you can usually avoid selecting that. Some bury the answer to a question within their website to force you to read it but mostly it's just a small amount of publicity for them. For the famous brands I don't worry about my details being sold on, but maybe I'm very naive!
I'm very unsure about this bit - but often these competitions are running in the UK too and have a purchase requirement. That doesn't seem to happen here, I wonder if it's not allowed. So often we get an extension of UK competitions that are free for us to enter, but over there you'd need a proof of purchase
