Winners will be selected at random by the Administrator from among all eligible entries per the schedule below starting on or about 12/12/17 at 3pmET in Westport, CT. Entry for one drawing will not be valid for all remaining drawings. You may participate each day of the Sweepstakes and receive one (1) entry per day for a maximum of seven (7) entries during the Sweepstakes period. All winners are subject to validation. Potential winners will be notified via an in-app notification message promptly after winner selection. Potential winners must complete the prize acceptance and validation form within 7 days of initial receipt of the in-app notification. If a potential winner is from Canada, he/she will have to successfully answer a timed mathematical question to receive a prize. You are not a winner until validated and you receive official notification from the Sponsor. It is entirely each Entrant’s responsibility to ensure that he/she responds to the winner notification by the given deadline. If a potential winner cannot be reached after a reasonable effort has been exerted (response within seven (7) days of receipt of initial in-game notification), he or she is found to be ineligible at any point during the administration of the Sweepstakes, he or she cannot or does not comply with these Official Rules, Sponsor’s Terms and Conditions or the Sponsor’s or the Administrator’s instructions, or if his or her prize, prize notification, or other Sweepstakes-related correspondence is faulty, rejected, or returned as undeliverable, that potential winner may be disqualified without notification and an alternate potential winner may be selected at Sponsor’s discretion. In the event that a potential winner cannot be reached or does not respond within the aforementioned timeframe, Sponsor shall randomly select an alternate winner. Only two (2) alternate winners will be contacted per drawing, after which the prize will remain un-awarded. Winners will be required to sign and return, when requested, an affidavit of eligibility, a name and likeness release, and prize/publicity release (the “Sweepstakes Documents”) within seven (7) business days of accepting the applicable prize(s). All winners may also be required to provide to Sponsor all documentation requested by Sponsor to permit it to comply with all applicable USA, state and local tax reporting and withholding requirements, including but not limited to an IRS W-9 form. A potential winner (or any alternate potential winner if one must be selected) is not official and will not be confirmed as a winner until he/she has completed, signed and returned the Sweepstakes Documents and any required tax-related documents such as an IRS W-9, and the eligibility of the potential winner has been verified. By taking part in the Sweepstakes, you agree to be bound by these rules and all decisions of the Sponsor which are final and binding on all aspects of the Sweepstakes.
