misdirected, or unsuccessful efforts to notify potential winner(s).   All prizes

connection with any prize, and the reporting obligations and consequences
thereof, are the sole and exclusive responsibility of the winner.  No
substitution of any prize will be permitted, except that Sponsor reserves the
right in its sole discretion to substitute a prize with a prize or prizes of
equal or greater value. 

 

If, in the Sponsor’s opinion, there is any suspected or actual evidence of
electronic or non-electronic tampering with any portion of the survey and/or
Sweepstakes, or if technical difficulties compromise the integrity of the survey
and/or Sweepstakes, the Sponsor reserves the right to terminate the survey
and/or Sweepstakes and conduct a random drawing to award the prize(s) using all
eligible online and write-in entries received.  In the event of any such
occurrence, the Sweepstakes may be terminated prior to the stated Entry Deadline

site.   Each entrant agrees to be bound by decisions of Sponsor, which shall be
final. Sponsor reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to suspend or cancel
