Any attempt by Entrant to obtain more Entries by using multiple/different email addresses, identities, registrations, logins or any other methods, including, but not limited to, commercial contest/sweepstakes/giveaway subscription notification and/or entering services, will void Entrant’s Entries and that Entrant may be disqualified. Final eligibility for the award of any prize is subject to eligibility verification as set forth below. All Entries must be submitted by the end of the Sweepstakes Period in order to participate. 

Odds of Winning
Odds of winning will vary depending on the number of eligible Entries received. Multiple Entries by the same Entrant do not increase the odds of winning.

Prize Drawing
The Sponsor will select potential winners in a random drawing from among all eligible entries received. The random drawing will be conducted by Sponsor or its designated representatives, whose decisions are final.

Winner Notification
The potential winner will be notified by email approximately 14 days after the random drawing. Potential Winner must accept a prize as directed by Sponsor within five (5) days of notification.

Sponsor is not responsible for any delay or failure to receive notification for any reason, including inactive email account(s), technical difficulties associated therewith, or Winner’s failure to adequately monitor any email account. Any winner notification not responded to may result in prize forfeiture, and the Sponsor may select an alternate potential winner in his/her place at random from the remaining non-winning, eligible Entries.

Potential winners must continue to comply with all terms and conditions of these Official Rules, and winning is contingent upon fulfilling all requirements.

In the event that a potential winner is disqualified for any reason, Sponsor will award the applicable prize to an alternate winner by random drawing from among all remaining eligible entries. Only three (3) alternate drawings will be held, after which the prize will remain un-awarded.
