Prize Drawing Within five (5) business days, the Sponsor will select potential winners in a random drawing from among all eligible entries received. The odds of being selected depend on the number of entries received.
Winner Notification The Sponsor will attempt to notify the potential winner via email announcement to all registered Sweepstakes participants based on the contact information provided at the Conference. All applicants are automatically registered for marketing emails in order to receive the public notification. If incomplete information is provided and the potential winner cannot be reached, the Sponsor may select an alternate potential winner in his/her place at random from the remaining non-winning, eligible entries. By claiming the prize, the potential winner affirms that he or she has played by the rules, has been awarded the specified prize, agrees to pay any related state and/or federal taxes associated with the prize, and releases the Sponsor from liability with respect to the contestant’s participation in the sweepstakes and the awarding and use of the prize. If a potential winner does not claim their prize within the required time period, is deemed ineligible, or prize is returned as undeliverable, potential winner forfeits the prize. The Sponsor is not required to make multiple attempts at contact, and it is the responsibility of the participant to receive the email and respond within the time frame. If the potential winner is at least 18 but still considered a minor in his/her jurisdiction of residence, Sponsor reserves the right to award the prize in the name of his/her parent or legal guardian, who will be required to sign the Declaration of Compliance on the potential winners behalf and fulfill any other requirements imposed on winner set forth herein. 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. The same contact methods and rules shall apply for any potential winner contacted initially or subsequently. Only three (3) alternate drawings will be held, after which the prize will remain un-awarded. Prizes will be fulfilled within six (6) months after the conclusion of the Sweepstakes.
