Sponsor does not endorse any particular QR Code reader or company products, and any such download is at the sole risk of the participant. Limit one (1) entry per person/email address, per day.

Entries will be disqualified if they are late, incomplete and/or in excess of the stated entry limit. Sponsor’s computer will be the official time clock for the Sweepstakes.

Any attempt by a person to use multiple accounts or identities to gain more entries than permitted by these Official Rules shall result in disqualification at the discretion of Sponsor. Entry information becomes the property of Sponsor upon submission. Multiple entrants are not permitted to share the same email account. Proof of submission of entry does not constitute proof of receipt of entry. In the event of a dispute as to the identity of the entrant associated with an entry, the authorized account holder of the email account associated with the entry, at time of submission, will be deemed to be the entrant. The “authorized account holder” is the natural person assigned to the applicable email account by the email service provider. A potential winner may be required to show proof of being the authorized account holder. In the event a dispute regarding the identity of the person who actually submitted an entry cannot be resolved to Sponsor's satisfaction, the affected entry will be deemed ineligible.

If you participate from your mobile phone, such activity will be subject to the charges pursuant to your wireless service provider’s rate plan. You further agree that by providing your mobile phone as part of your entry information, you are consenting to Sponsor or its designees contacting you via a live call or text message to your mobile phone if you are a potential winner, which will be subject to the charges pursuant to your wireless service provider’s rate plan.
