the stated number of entries by using multiple/different email addresses, identities,
registrations and logins, or any other methods will void that entrant's entries and that entrant
may be disqualified. Use of any automated system to participate is prohibited and will result in
disqualification. In the event of a dispute as to any registration, the authorized account holder
of the email address used to register will be deemed to be the entrant. The “authorized account
holder” is the natural person assigned an email address by an Internet access provider, online
service provider or other organization responsible for assigning email addresses for the
domain associated with the submitted address. Each potential winner must be required to
show proof of being an authorized account holder.
5. Drawings: Administrator is an independent judging organization whose decisions as to the
administration and operation of the Sweepstakes and the selection of the potential winners are
final and binding in all matters related to the Sweepstakes. Administrator will randomly select
the potential Sweepstakes winners from all eligible entries received during the Promotion
Period, on or around March 31, 2019. The potential winners will be notified by email. Except
where prohibited, each potential winner (or parent/legal guardian if winner is a minor in his/her
place of residence) will be required to sign and return a Declaration of Compliance, Liability
and Publicity Release ("Declaration") which must be received by Administrator, within seven
(7) days of the date notice or attempted notice is sent, in order to claim his/her prize. If a
Canadian resident, potential winner will be required to correctly answer a time-limited skill
testing question without any assistance in order to be eligible to receive a prize. If a potential
winner is a Canadian resident and the question is answered incorrectly, his/her prize will be
forfeited. If a potential winner of any prize cannot be contacted, fails to sign and return the
Declaration or provide any other requested information within the required time period, or the
prize is returned as undeliverable, potential winner forfeits his/her prize. Receiving a prize is
contingent upon compliance with these Official Rules. In the event that a potential winner is
disqualified for any reason, Sponsor will award the applicable prize to an alternate winner by
random drawing from among all remaining eligible entries. Only three (3) alternate drawings
will be held, after which the prize will remain un-awarded. Prizes will be fulfilled no later than
8-10 weeks after winner confirmation.
