Any attempt by any Entrant to obtain more than the permitted number of entries by using multiple and/or different identities, forms, registrations, addresses or any other method will void all of that Entrant’s entries, and that Entrant may be disqualified at Sponsor’s and/or Administrator’s discretion.

Proof of sending or submission will not be deemed to be proof of receipt by Sponsor and/or Administrator. In the event of a dispute as to the identity of an Entrant, the authorized account holder of the email address used to enter will be deemed to be the Entrant or participant. The “authorized account holder” is the natural person assigned an email address by an Internet access provider, online service provider, Internet service provider or other organization (which may include an employer) responsible for assigning email addresses for the domain associated with the submitted address.

If Sponsor and Administrator are unable to determine and verify a potential Reward recipient after repeated alternate drawings or if they fail to receive a sufficient number of entries to correspond to the number of Rewards available to be awarded, Sponsor and Administrator reserve the right to not award any or all of the Rewards.
Verification of Potential Reward recipients: ALL POTENTIAL REWARD RECIPIENTS ARE SUBJECT TO VERIFICATION BY SPONSOR AND ADMINISTRATOR, WHOSE DECISIONS ARE FINAL AND BINDING IN ALL MATTERS RELATED TO THE PROMOTION.
