How to Enter: During the Competition Period, complete the online
entry forms and download Promoter's software onto your computer. The software
will allow Promoter to track and record the websites visited and (non-secure)
content on the sites visited, internet search engine queries and results,
displayed advertisement, the IP address and operating system used on your machine
and cookies. You may temporarily
de-activate the software by clicking on the windows tray icon and choose
“private browsing.” Otherwise, the software is
“on” and will track and record actions.
To receive your initial entry into
the Prize Draw, you will need to maintain the software application on your
computer or device for thirty (30) days as well as have the software application
record or register at least one (1) activity log (e.g. by visiting one (1) internet
site or initiating at least one (1) internet search) while the software is
"on." You will then receive one (1) entry into the applicable Monthly
Entry Period drawing.
You may receive one (1) entry into
subsequent Monthly Entry Period drawings by the software application recording
or registering at least one (1) activity log (e.g. by visiting at least one (1)
internet site or initiating at least one (1) internet search) while the
software remains "on."
Receiving an entry into one Monthly Entry Period does not and will not
enter you into any subsequent Monthly Entry Period drawings.
If no activity log is registered
during a Monthly Entry Period then you will not receive an entry into the applicable
Monthly Entry Period drawing.
You will be responsible for the
incidental costs of airtime and telephone time incurred when logging onto the web site to register
and browse as charged by your telephone and internet providers. Limit: Each
entrant may receive one (1) Prize Draw entry into each of the Monthly Entry Periods
during the Competition Period.
Multiple entrants may not share the same email address or the same
computer. Any attempt by any entrant to obtain more than the stated number of
plays by using multiple/different email addresses, identities, registrations
and logins, or any other methods will void that entrant’s plays and that entrant
may be disqualified.
Use of any automated system to
participate is prohibited and will result in disqualification. Promoter is not
responsible for lost, late, incomplete, invalid, unintelligible or misdirected
registrations, which will be disqualified. In the event of a dispute as to any registration, the authorised
account holder of the email address used to
register will be deemed to be the entrant. The
“authorised account holder” is the
natural person assigned an email address by an Internet access provider, online
service provider, Internet service provider or other organisation
responsible for assigning email addresses for the domain associated with the
submitted address. Potential winners may be required to
show proof of being an authorised account holder.
5.
Prize Draw and Verification of Potential Winners: Administrator ePrize, Inc., an independent
judging organization, whose decisions as to the
administration and operation of the Prize Draw and the selection of potential
winners are final and binding in all matters related to
the Prize Draw, will randomly select the potential Monthly Entry Period Prize
Draw winners, from all eligible entries during the applicable Monthly Entry
Period on or around the dates listed in the above timing chart. The draw will
take place at the Administrator’s offices
at the address set forth above. The potential Prize Draw winner will be
notified by email after the date of the random draw. Receiving a prize is
contingent upon compliance with these Official Rules. Each potential winner (parent/legal
guardian if winner is a minor in his/her place of residence) will be required to sign and return a Notice of Eligibility, Liability and
Publicity Release form (except where prohibited) which must be received within seven
(7) days of the date notice or attempted notice is sent, in order to claim the prize. If a potential winner of any prize
cannot be contacted, or fails to sign and return
the Notice of Eligibility, Liability and Publicity Release form, the potential
winner forfeits the prize. In the
event that a potential winner of a prize is disqualified for any reason, Promoter
will award the applicable prize to an alternate
winner in a random drawing from among all remaining eligible entries. There will be three (3) alternate
drawings after which the applicable prize will remain unawarded. Prizes will be
received 8-10 weeks after the conclusion of each Monthly Entry Period.
6.
Prizes: SIX (6)
GRAND PRIZES (Awarded one (1) each Monthly Entry Period): £1000
GBP. Approximate Retail Value (“ARV”): £1000. Prizes will be awarded as cash or a cash
equivalent. Winners may be required to set up a money transfer account, as
directed by the Sponsor, in order to receive his/her prize. Prizes are
non-transferable and no substitution will be made except as provided herein at
the Sponsor’s sole discretion. The Sponsor reserves the right to
substitute a prize for one of equal or greater value if the designated prize
should become unavailable for any reason. Neither the Sponsor nor the
Administrator shall be liable or responsible for any lost, stolen or misplaced
prizes. Winners are responsible for all taxes and fees associated with prize
receipt and/or use. The odds (chances) of winning a prize depend upon the
number of eligible entries received from Panel members during each Entry
Period. Limit: One (1) prize per
person, per Monthly Entry Period.
7.
Release:
By receipt of any prize, winner agrees to release
and hold harmless Promoter, Survey Sampling International, LLC, ePrize,
Inc. and their respective subsidiaries, affiliates, suppliers, distributors, advertising/promotion agencies and each of their
respective parent companies and each such company’s officers, directors, employees and agents (collectively, the
“Released Parties”) from and against any claim or cause of action,
including, but not limited to, damage to or loss of property, arising out of participation in
the Prize Draw or receipt or use or misuse
of any prize. This Release does not apply to claims for personal injury or death caused by the
negligence of Promoter or Administrator.
8. Publicity: Except where prohibited,
participation in the Prize Draw constitutes winners consent to Promoter’s
use of winner’s name and country of residence for promotional purposes in
any media, worldwide, without further payment or consideration.
9. General
Conditions:
Promoter reserves the right to cancel, suspend
and/or modify the Prize Draw, or any part of it, if any fraud, technical
failures, human error or any other factor
impairs the integrity or proper functioning of the Prize Draw or, as determined
by Promoter in its sole discretion. In such event, Sponsor, in its sole
discretion, may elect to hold a random drawing from among all eligible entries
received up to the date of discontinuance for any or all of the prizes offered
herein. Promoter reserves the right
in its sole discretion to disqualify any
individual it finds to be tampering with the
entry process or the operation of the Prize Draw or to
be acting in violation of the Official Rules of this or any other promotion in
an unsportsmanlike or disruptive manner. Any attempt by any person to deliberately undermine the legitimate operation of the
Prize Draw may be a violation of criminal and civil law, and, should such an
attempt be made, Promoter reserves the right to
seek damages from any such person to the fullest
extent permitted by law. Promoter’s
failure to enforce any term of these Official
Rules shall not constitute a waiver of that provision.
10. Limitations of Liability: Released
Parties are neither liable nor responsible for: (1) any incorrect or inaccurate
information, whether caused by entrants, printing errors or by any of the
equipment or programming associated with or utilised
in the Prize Draw; (2) technical failures of any kind, including, but not
limited to malfunctions, interruptions, or
disconnections in phone lines or network hardware or software; (3) unauthorised human intervention in any part of the entry
process or the Prize Draw; (4) technical or human error which may occur in the
administration of the Prize Draw or the processing of entries; or (5) any
injury or damage to property which may be
caused, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, from the entrant’s
participation in the Prize Draw or receipt or use or misuse of any prize (other than as a direct result of the Promoter's negligence). If for any reason an entrant's entry is
confirmed to have been erroneously deleted, lost, or otherwise destroyed or
corrupted, entrant’s sole remedy is another entry in the Prize Draw, if
it is possible. No more than the stated number of prizes will be awarded. In
the event that production, technical, seeding, programming or any other reasons
cause more than the stated number of prizes as set forth in these Official
Rules to be available and/or claimed Promoter reserves the right to award only the stated number of prizes by a random
drawing among all legitimate, unawarded, eligible prize claims.
11.
Disputes:
Except where prohibited, entrant agrees that: (1) any and all disputes, claims
and causes of action arising out of or connected with this Prize Draw or any
prize awarded shall be
resolved individually, without resort to any
form of class action, by the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Courts of
England and Wales; (2) any
and all claims, judgments and awards shall be limited to
actual out-of-pocket costs incurred, including costs associated with entering
this Prize Draw, but in no event attorneys’
fees; and (3) under no circumstances will entrant be permitted to
obtain awards for, and entrant hereby waives all rights to
claim, indirect, punitive, incidental and consequential damages and any other
damages, other than for actual out-of-pocket expenses, and any and all rights to have damages multiplied or otherwise increased. All
issues and questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and
enforceability of these Official Rules, or the rights and obligations of the
entrant and Promoter in connection with the Prize Draw, shall be governed by,
and construed in accordance with, the laws of England and Wales without giving
effect to any choice of law or conflict of law
rules (whether of England and Wales or any other jurisdiction), which would
cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the England
and Wales.
