Selected prize winners will be contacted regarding the prize by telephone or email (using the contact information provided on the Contest entry form) (the “Notification”).
6. Winner Confirmation
To be declared a prize winner, the Entrant selected for the prize must first:
(a) reply to the Notification by telephone or email (as required) within five (5) days after the date of receipt of the Notification;
(b) correctly answer, unaided, a mathematical skill-testing question, posed by telephone at a mutually convenient time to be arranged via telephone or email between the Entrant selected for the prize and the Company;
(c) execute and return (either by mailing to the identified address or by scanning and returning via email to the identified email address) within 10 days of it being sent by the Company, a Contest Release Form (in a form satisfactory to the Company) including (i) confirming understanding of, compliance with and acceptance of these Contest Rules (ii) confirming acceptance of the prize, (iii) providing a release of all liability, releasing the Company including from any liability arising from or connected with the Contest or the awarding or accepting or use of a prize and/or from the promotion, advertising and publicity of the Contest and the products, services and business of the Company in connection therewith; and (iv) consenting, without further compensation, to the Company’s use in perpetuity, in any form or media, of the Entrant’s name, city and province/territory of residence, photograph, image, likeness, voice, any statements he/she may make regarding such Contest prize and/or Contest details or information for advertising and publicity of the Contest and the products, services and business of the Company.
A selected Entrant may be required to provide proof of identification to the Company when claiming a prize or otherwise in connection with this Contest to facilitate the Company’s accurate identification of a Contest winner.
If a selected Entrant cannot be reached by telephone or email within five (5) days following the relevant Random Draw, incorrectly answers the skill-testing question, declines the prize, fails to return the Declaration and Releases as specified above or does not comply with the Contest Rules, the prize will be forfeited and may be awarded to an alternate Entrant, chosen at the sole discretion of the Company.
By accepting a Contest prize, each winner authorizes the Company to use in any related publicity the winner’s name, city and province/territory of residence, photograph, image, likeness, voice, and any statements he/she may make regarding such Contest prize and/or Contest details or information for advertising and promotional purposes worldwide in perpetuity, in any form or media including the Internet, without limitation and without additional compensation or consideration, permission or notification, unless prohibited by law.
The prize must be accepted as described in these Contest Rules and while it may be transferred by the winner to another person, it cannot be substituted for another prize, or exchanged in full or in part for cash, except in the Company’s discretion. The Company reserves the right to substitute another product as all or a portion of the prize if the prize or a portion of it cannot be awarded as described. Any prize is “as is” without further warranty of any kind.
