The Grand Prize winner will be required to provide his or her (or his/her parent/legal guardian’s if minor in his/her state of residence) social security number. Prizes subject to availability. Prizes are non-transferable and no substitution is permitted, except by Sponsor, who reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to substitute a prize (or portion of prize) of equal or greater value, if prize, or portion of prize, becomes unavailable. Sponsor is not responsible for technical, hardware or software malfunctions of any kind, lost or unavailable network connections, or failed, incorrect, incomplete, inaccurate, garbled or delayed electronic communications or for any of the equipment or programming associated with or utilized in the Promotion or by any human error which may occur in the processing of the game plays/entries in the Promotion. The Sponsor reserves the right at its sole discretion to disqualify any individual that tampers or attempts to tamper with the entry process or the operation of the Promotion or Web site; violates these Official Rules; or acts in an unsportsmanlike or disruptive manner, or with intent to annoy, abuse, threaten or harass any other person. Any attempt by any person to deliberately undermine the legitimate operation of the Promotion may be a violation of criminal and civil law, and, should such an attempt be made, Sponsor reserves the right to seek damages from any such person to the fullest extent permitted by law. Sponsor's failure to enforce any term of these Official Rules shall not constitute a waiver of that provision. The Sponsor reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to cancel, terminate, modify or suspend the Promotion if it is not capable of running as planned, including, but not limited to, infection by computer virus, tampering, unauthorized intervention, fraud, technical failures or any other problems beyond the control of the Sponsor and award applicable prizes claimed online prior to online cancellation and award the Grand Prize from among all eligible online entries/game plays received prior to the action requiring such modification.

7. Verification: All winners are subject to verification of eligibility and compliance with these Official Rules. If, due to an error of any kind, more prize messages are revealed as instant winners than are intended to be awarded per any prize level, the intended prizes will be awarded in a random drawing from among all verified prize claims received for that prize level.

If potential winner is not reachable at the address and/or e-mail address provided and a forwarding address and/or e-mail address is not made available or if prize/prize notification is returned as undeliverable, then the prize will be forfeited and an alternate winner may be selected (for Grand Prize only). The Promotion Entities shall have no liability for any prize/prize winner notification that is lost, intercepted or not received by the potential prize winner for any reason.
