By submitting an Entry, you agree that it conforms to these Official Rules and that Sponsor, in its sole discretion, may remove your Entry and disqualify you from the Sweepstakes if it believes your Entry fails to conform. Entrants are required to provide truthful information and Sponsor will reject and delete any entry that it discovers to be false or fraudulent. Sponsor will disqualify any entry from individuals who do not meet the eligibility requirements, and may also delete any entry received from persons under the age of thirteen (13) in compliance with the U.S. Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act and other applicable privacy legislation. 

Limit: Entries must be received before the end of the Sweepstakes Period to be eligible for the Sweepstakes drawing. Each entrant may submit only one (1) Entry during the Sweepstakes Period.

Additional entries will not increase your chances of being drawn as a potential winner, and you will only be eligible to win a single prize.  Entries made by any mass duplication, automatic, robotic, script, macro, plagiarized or programmed method, or through any promotion entry, notification, or related service are prohibited and will be disqualified.   In the event of a dispute as to any Entry, the authorized account holder of the email address submitted in the Entry will be deemed to be the entrant and must comply with these Official Rules. The "authorized account holder" is the natural person assigned an email address by an Internet access provider, online service provider or other organization responsible for assigning email addresses for the domain associated with the submitted address. Each entrant may be required to show proof of being an authorized account holder.

The odds of winning depend on the total number of eligible entries received during the Sweepstakes Period. Major restrictions apply to the use, availability or receipt of any prize. A potential winner may be required to confirm his or her eligibility and release the Sweepstakes Persons from liability to receive any prize.
