Since it applies to any and all such promotional awards, it is actually in the Terms and Conditions of the SPG Program:
5.2.d. If any SPG Promotion Rewards include bonus Eligible Nights or Eligible Stays, such Eligible Nights or Eligible Stays will only count towards such SPG Member earning Elite Preferred Guest Membership Status, but will not count towards such SPG Member earning SPG Lifetime Gold Status or SPG Lifetime Platinum Status or towards achieving any milestones required to obtain any other SPG Promotion Rewards.
