Random Drawing; Prizes; Notifying Prize Winners
A random drawing will be conducted on or about July 1, 2022, by Promoter to select a winner (the “Winner”) from among all eligible entries received by a participating brand. Odds of winning depend on the number of entries received, per participating brand. There will be a maximum of 9 prizes awarded, one Winner per participating brand.

The potential Winner will be notified by email and/or telephone and may be required, at Promotor’s discretion, to complete, sign and return an affidavit of eligibility, a liability release, and where lawful, a publicity release within a stated amount of time.
Failure to respond within the applicable time period will result in forfeiture of the Prize and Promoter shall have the option to award the Prize to an alternate Winner. The return of the Promoter’s prize notification or Prize as undeliverable or failure to respond to the Notification may also result in disqualification and an alternate Winner may be selected. Promoter is not responsible for digital communications that are undeliverable as a result of any filtering of any kind, insufficient space in a Participant’s account, or any other failure beyond its reasonable control. In the event of a dispute with respect to entries received from more than one user having the same e-mail address/account, the authorized subscriber of the account in question at the time of entry will be deemed the proper entrant. A potential Winner will also forfeit his or her Prize if he or she is disqualified as not eligible to have participated in the Sweepstakes in the first instance.

Promoter reserves the right to substitute an alternate Prize of comparable or equal value in its sole discretion.
