Odds of winning will depend upon the number of eligible entries received for each Prize Draw.

4. Winner Notification: An Entrant is not deemed a winner of any Reward, even if the winning notification should so indicate, unless and until (i) the Entrant’s eligibility has been verified  (which may include a background check), (ii) all requirements determined by the Sponsor in order to claim his/her Reward have been fulfilled and (iii) the entrant has been notified that the acceptance and verification process is complete.

If a potential winner cannot be reached or does not respond within the specified time frame, is found to be ineligible, or declines to accept the Reward, the potential winner may be disqualified in Sponsor’s sole discretion, and in such case Sponsor may select an alternate potential winner in a random drawing from remaining eligible entries. By entering, Entrant agrees to cooperate fully with any such background check, and to execute and deliver to the Sponsor or its agents, any and all required authorizations and approvals necessary to conduct said background check. Failure to cooperate will result in disqualification. If any background check indicates, in Sponsor’s sole discretion, that the potential winner poses a danger to or may harm the reputation of any person or entity involved in the Promotion, Sponsor may disqualify said winner in Sponsor’s sole discretion, and in such case Sponsor may select an alternate potential winner in a random drawing from remaining eligible entries.

If a Reward is won by a minor, it will be awarded in the name of the winner’s parent or legal guardian. If an Entrant is under the age of majority, then he/she must obtain prior consent from his/her parent or legal guardian to enter and the parent or legal guardian may be required to verify the granting of consent and/or sign a release at the discretion of the Sponsor. Failure of an Entrant’s parent or legal guardian to verify consent and/or sign a release will invalidate an Entrant’s Entry.
