Online entry forms that contain false or incomplete information may be void. Entries that do not conform with or satisfy any or all of the conditions of the Contest Rules will be deemed void. No correspondence will be entered into except with selected entrants. Proof of transmission (screenshots or captures, etc.) does not constitute proof of receipt.

The Sponsor is not responsible for the failure for any reason whatsoever of the Winning Entrant to receive notification or for the Sponsor to receive a Winning Entrant’s response.
