Prize(s); Winner Selection & Notification of Winners; Conditions. Subject to these General Terms and Conditions, the Sponsor will award a prize to one or more individuals (as specified in the applicable Sweepstakes Terms) who will be selected at random from among all eligible entries received. If you are selected to be a winner, an e-mail notification or social media message will be sent to you (depending on the medium in which the Sweepstakes is taking place and/or how you entered). Each person selected to win must respond within seven (7) days of the notification being sent to them. Each winner must provide any information required by Sponsor for delivery of any prize, including, if applicable, your shipping address.
Subject to these Official Rules, prize(s) will be fulfilled by the Sponsor. Each prize will be awarded only after (i) Sponsor’s receipt of the selected winner’s response and any required affidavit of eligibility, declaration of compliance, release and/or other documentation; (ii) proper verification of the selected winner’s identity; all subject to selected winner’s compliance with the Official Rules. Return of the prize notification as “undeliverable” or any failure to respond or to return any required affidavit or other documentation in the time period provided above, or any other failure to comply with these Official Rules, will result in disqualification of the selected winner and forfeiture of the prize. Sponsor is not required to award any prizes forfeited by the chosen winner to another winner or party. Sponsor is not responsible for any late, lost, stolen, damaged, delayed, or undelivered prizes.
Each winner will be solely responsible for paying any taxes and any other expenses incurred by the winner in connection with receiving the prize or participating in the Sweepstakes, including any income taxes, sales or use taxes, value added taxes, goods and services taxes, or harmonized sales taxes.

Each prize will be awarded “as is” and without warranty of any kind, express or implied (including any implied warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose). If you win a prize, you may not transfer, assign, or redeem the prize for cash. The Sponsor may substitute a prize with a prize of similar or greater value.
