PRIZEWINNER NOTIFICATION:

Each potential Prizewinner will be notified using the Personal Information provided during entry by any of email, telephone, mail, text message, a post on the potentially winning entry, or through a direct message on a social media platform (if applicable) (method to be selected by Sponsor in its sole discretion) in a commercially reasonable time after the drawing. The potential Prizewinner must respond within twenty-four (24) hours of notification, and in accordance with the instructions in the notification, or the Prize may, in Sponsor’s sole discretion, be forfeited. The Sweepstakes Entities are not responsible for false, incorrect, changed, incomplete or illegible contact information. Notification is deemed to have occurred immediately upon sending of an email, text, direct message on a social media platform, and/or placing of a phone call, one (1) day after sending via a delivery service, or two (2) days after mailing. A potential Prizewinner who provides a P.O. Box may be required to provide an alternative physical address and this may cause a delay in notification and acceptance, so use of a P.O. Box is discouraged. The Sweepstakes Entities are not responsible for electronic communications that are undeliverable as a result of any form of active or passive filtering of any kind, insufficient space in Entrant’s email or voicemail inbox to receive messages, or any limitations associated with receipt or delivery of text messages or direct messages.

 

Each potential Prizewinner may be required to submit an affidavit of eligibility / release of liability / prize acceptance agreement (collectively, the “Affidavit”) and return the Affidavit within the time period specified at notification before being eligible to receive their Prize. In addition, for any Prize with a value of Six Hundred U.S. Dollars (US $600) or more, or in the event the potential Prizewinner has been awarded prizes in other promotions operated by Sponsor for which this Prize will cause the total value of all prizes received in a calendar year from the Sponsor to be Six Hundred U.S. Dollars (US $600) or more, the potential Prizewinner shall be required to return a completed IRS Form W-9 to the Sponsor prior to Sponsor’s delivery of the prize (the “W9”). All Prize claims, including any required Affidavit, are subject to verification by Sponsor. If any potential Prizewinner fails or refuses to sign and return such Affidavit and W9 within the time period required by Sponsor or if the Prize or Prize notification is returned as rejected, faulty, unclaimed or returned as undeliverable to such potential Prizewinner, such potential Prizewinner may be disqualified and an alternate Prizewinner may be selected. Non-compliance shall result in disqualification. If any potential Prizewinner is found to be ineligible, or if they have not complied with these Official Rules and all other additional or supplemental rules or instructions, or if the potential Prizewinner cannot attend or participate in any portion of the Prize, or declines a Prize for any reason prior to award, such potential Prizewinner may be disqualified and an alternate potential Prizewinner may be selected. If, for any reason, more bona fide Prizewinners come forward seeking to claim Prizes in excess of the number of each type of Prize set forth in these Official Rules, the Prizewinners, or remaining Prizewinners, as the case may be, of the advertised number of Prizes available may be selected in a random drawing from among all persons making purportedly valid claims for such Prize(s). Inclusion in such drawing shall be each Entrant’s sole and exclusive remedy under such circumstances. The Sweepstakes Entities are not responsible for and shall not be liable for late, lost, damaged, intercepted, misdirected, or unsuccessful efforts to notify the potential Prizewinner.

Sponsor will not replace any lost or stolen cash, cash equivalent, gift cards, or other forms of Prize distributed. In the event of such a loss, Sponsor shall have the right, in Sponsor’s sole discretion, to disqualify the Prizewinner or to award to that Prizewinner the remaining elements of the Prize which shall constitute full satisfaction of Sponsor’s prize obligation to the Prizewinner and no additional compensation will be awarded.

 

Terms and conditions of any gift card, ticket, or voucher awarded apply.

Sponsor will have no liability for a potential Prizewinner’s failure or inability to accept a Prize for any reason. Any failure to use a Prize after acceptance does not relieve the Prizewinner of their tax obligations associated with winning the Prize. No transfers, prize substitutions or cash redemptions will be made, except at Sponsor’s sole discretion. Prizewinner is strictly prohibited from selling, auctioning, trading or otherwise transferring the opportunity to receive the Prize, except with Sponsor’s permission, which may be granted or withheld for any reason in its sole discretion.

The parties agree that the Sweepstakes and these Official Rules will be governed, construed, and interpreted under the laws of the State of California, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules (whether of the State of California or any other jurisdiction) which would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of California.

 

DISPUTE RESOLUTION:

Entrant, Sponsor, and the other Released Parties (each, a “Party” and collectively the “Parties”) each agree to fully and finally settle all disputes pertaining to the Sweepstakes, administration of the Sweepstakes, and/or these Official Rules only through binding arbitration; provided, however, Sponsor shall be entitled to seek injunctive or equitable relief in the state and federal courts in Los Angeles County, California and any other court with jurisdiction over the Parties. In arbitration, there is no judge or jury and review is limited. The arbitrator’s decision and award are final and binding, with limited exceptions, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court with jurisdiction. The Parties agree that, except as set forth above, any claim, suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Sweepstakes shall be resolved solely by binding arbitration before a sole arbitrator under the Streamlined Arbitration Rules & Procedures of JAMS Inc. (“JAMS”) or any successor to JAMS. In the event JAMS is unwilling or unable to set a hearing date within fourteen (14) days of the filing of a “Demand for Arbitration”, then either Party can elect to have the arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) or any other mutually agreeable arbitration administration service. If an in-person hearing is required, then it will take place in Los Angeles, California or – where required by the arbitration service’s rules – in or near your home town. The federal or state law that applies to these Official Rules will also apply during the arbitration. Disputes will be arbitrated only on an individual basis and will not be consolidated with any other proceedings that involve any claims or controversy of another party, including any class actions; provided, however, if for any reason any court or arbitrator holds that this restriction is unconscionable or unenforceable, then the agreement to arbitrate doesn’t apply and the dispute must be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in Los Angeles County, California. Sponsor agrees to pay the administrative and arbitrator’s fees in order to conduct the arbitration (but specifically excluding any travel or other costs of Entrant to attend the arbitration hearing). Either Party may, notwithstanding this provision, bring qualifying claims in small claims court.

MISCELLANEOUS:

The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of these Official Rules or the Affidavit will not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision.

Headings are solely for convenience of reference and will not be deemed to affect in any manner the meaning or intent of the documents or any provision hereof. In the event there is a discrepancy or inconsistency between disclosures or other statements contained in any Sweepstakes-related materials, privacy policy or terms of use on any website, social media platform or application and/or the terms and conditions of the Official Rules, the Official Rules shall prevail, govern and control and the discrepancy will be resolved in Sponsor’s sole and absolute discretion.
