OFFICIAL RULES
NO PURCHASE NECESSARY TO ENTER OR WIN. Participation constitutes entrant's full and
unconditional agreement to and acceptance of these Official Rules. The Sweepstakes begins at
12:00 A.M. EDT on September 25, 2009 and ends at 11:59 P.M. EDT on October 9, 2009.
Sweepstakes is sponsored by the Marketing Research Association, 110 National Drive,
Glastonbury, CT 06033.
Eligibility: Sweepstakes is offered only electronically via the Internet and is open to persons who
are aged 18 and older and legal residents of the United States. Employees, officers, and directors
of Sponsor, its parent company, affiliates, subsidiaries, advertising, promotion, and fulfillment
agencies, their immediate family members and persons living in their same household, are not
eligible to participate in the Sweepstakes. Void where prohibited. All federal, provincial, state, and
local laws and regulations apply. This eliminates all of our board members from eligibility – many
of whom complete the survey. I think this is ok, but wanted to call it to everyone’s attention.
How to Enter: You may enter the Sweepstakes by following the link in your invitation to the
survey Web site, and completing the survey online.
Prize: One winner will be selected to win one $100 American Express gift card. No alternative
prize, cash, or other substitution is permitted. Prize is nontransferable/non-salable. All federal,
state and/or local taxes are the sole responsibility of the winner.
Selection of Winners: Winner will be determined by random drawing from all eligible entries
received, to be held after the end of the Sweepstakes Period by the Marketing Research
Association, 110 National Drive, Glastonbury, CT 06033. All decisions are final and binding. Odds
of winning will be determined by the number of eligible entries received.
Winner may be required to sign and return a release of liability, declaration of eligibility, and,
where lawful, a publicity consent agreement, all within 10 days of acknowledged notification. For
sweepstakes fulfillment purposes, winners may be required to provide and/or verify a current,
valid mailing address. Any such request must be responded to within 60 calendar days from the
date of notification, or risk forfeiture of sweepstakes prize. If a selected winner cannot be
contacted, is ineligible, fails to claim a prize, or fails to timely return the completed and executed
declaration and releases as required, prize may be forfeited. By accepting and/or using prizes,
winners agree to the use of their name, voice, and/or likeness for the purpose of advertising,
trade, or promotion without further compensation, unless prohibited by law. In the event of a
dispute regarding who submitted an online entry, the entry will be deemed submitted by the
authorized account holder of the e-mail account.
Conditions: By entering, each participant agrees to be bound by these Official Rules and the
decisions of Sponsor, which shall be final. Sponsor, agents and representatives of Sponsor, its
parent company, affiliates, subsidiaries, advertising, promotion, and fulfillment agencies, and
legal advisors and its subsidiaries are not responsible for and shall not be liable for: (i) telephone,
electronic, hardware or software program, network, Internet, or computer malfunctions, failures,
or difficulties of any kind; (ii) failed, incomplete, garbled, or delayed computer transmissions; (iii)
any condition caused by events beyond the control of the Sponsor that may cause the
Sweepstakes to be disrupted or corrupted; (iv) any injuries, losses, or damages of any kind
arising in connection with or as a result of the prize, or acceptance, possession, or use of the
prize, or from participation in the Sweepstakes; or (v) any printing or typographical errors in any
materials associated with the Sweepstakes. Sponsor reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to
suspend or cancel Sweepstakes at any time if a computer virus, bug, tampering, unauthorized
intervention, or other technical problem of any sort corrupts the administration, security, or proper
play of the Sweepstakes. Sponsor also reserves the right to disqualify, in its sole discretion, any
person tampering with the entry process, operation of the survey Web site, or who is otherwise in
violation of the rules.
By participating in the Sweepstakes, each participant agrees to release and hold Sponsor and the
employees, officers, directors, shareholders, agents, representatives of each, their parent
companies, affiliates, subsidiaries, advertising, promotion, and fulfillment agencies, and legal
advisors, harmless from any and all losses, damages, rights, claims and actions of any kind in
connection with the Sweepstakes or resulting from acceptance, possession, or use of any prize,
including without limitation, personal injury, death, and property damage, and claims based on
publicity rights, defamation, or invasion of privacy.
