The Promoter reserves the right to delete any entries or remove participants that are in violation of the Official Rules. By participating in the Membership Drive, entrants agree to be bound by these Official Rules.
How to Enter.
During the Promotion Period, Eligible Entrants may enter the Promotion in the method described on the Promotion Page. Limit one (1) entry per Eligible Entrant and Eligible Entrants may only win one (1) Prize. No other form of entry will be accepted other than as described on the Promotion Page. In the event of dispute over the identity of an Eligible Entrant, an entry will be deemed made by the Authorized Account Holder of the e-mail address submitted at the time of entry, and the Potential Winner may be required to provide identification sufficient to show that he/she is the Authorized Account Holder of such e-mail address. The “Authorized Account Holder” is deemed the natural person who is assigned to the e-mail address in question by the applicable Internet access provider, service provider or other online organization that is responsible for assigning e-mail addresses for the domain associated with the submitted e- mail address. It is solely the responsibility of the entrant to notify the Promoter in writing if the entrant changes his or her e-mail or postal address.
Winner Selection.
Promoter will randomly select the number of entries set forth on the Promotion Page from all Eligible Entrants after the Promotion Period, or for each Drawing as applicable (each, a “Potential Winner”). Promoter will attempt to contact the Potential Winner(s) in the manner described below. Should a Potential Winner not meet the eligibility criteria or the entry be found, in Promoter’s sole discretion, to not comply with these Official Rules, such Potential Winner will be disqualified and Promoter may select an alternative Potential Winner.
Winner Contact.
Unless otherwise stated on the Promotion Page, Promoter will attempt to contact a Potential Winner via e-mail within forty-eight (48) hours after the Promotion Period ends. Each Potential Winner who responds to Promoter’s message, and complies with all other terms of the Official Rules, is a “Winner.” If a Potential Winner cannot be reached during the forty-eight (48) hour period or fails to respond to Promoter within twenty-four (24) hours after said message is delivered, such individual will be disqualified and an alternative Potential Winner will be randomly selected from the remaining Eligible Entrants and contacted. Such process will continue until Promoter contacts the number of Winners to award all Prizes. At all times, Promoter reserves to right to select an alternate Winner in the event that a Winner is found to have not complied with these Official Rules.
Should the selected entrant fail to comply with any of the requirements contained in these Official Rules, the prize will be automatically forfeited and another entrant will be selected and the initially selected entrant will be disqualified and will have no recourse towards the Promoter or anyone involved in the Membership Drive.
