Multiple participants are not permitted to share the same email address. Sponsor is not responsible for lost, late, illegible, incomplete, invalid, unintelligible, misdirected, technically corrupted or garbled votes, or for other submission problems of any kind, whether caused mechanical, human or electronic error, all of which are void and ineligible. Additionally, Sponsor is not responsible for any telephone, electronic, hardware, software, network, Internet, or computer malfunctions, failures, or difficulties.

If a potential Winner fails to respond to the notification within the stated period, potential Winner may be disqualified and, in such instances, will forfeit any claim to any of the Prize(s) (as such term is defined in Section 8, below). The return of any potential Winner notification or prize as undeliverable may result in disqualification and an alternate Winner may be selected. Sponsor shall have, in its sole and absolute discretion, the option to replace any disqualified Winner(s).

7. CONFIRMATION AND VERIFICATION OF POTENTIAL WINNERS: A potential Winner will only be confirmed as the winner eligible to receive the Prize after Sponsor has completed verification of potential Winner’s eligibility to win and confirmed potential Winner’s compliance with the terms of these Official Rules.

8. PRIZE AND PRIZE TERMS:

(A) Prizes:

(i) First Place Winner: The First Place Winner will receive a trophy and will be recommended as a designated grantee by Omaze for a monetary grant from Charities Aid Foundation America (“CAF America”) out of the net donations raised by a future Omaze sweepstakes promotion on the Omaze.com website (an “Experience”) run by Omaze as part of CAF America’s fundraising campaign (the “First Place Prize”). The Experience for which the First Place Winner will be a designated grantee shall be determined by Omaze in its sole and absolute discretion, and such Experience may also support additional designated grantees in Omaze sole and absolute discretion. All grants made by CAF America will be made at CAF America’s sole discretion, and in accordance with CAF America’s grantmaking policies and procedures. CAF America may withhold grants and/or refuse to issue grants in the event the First Place Winner fails to maintain eligibility per CAF America’s grant-making policies, to the extent its Board of Directors reject a grant recommendation, or CAF America reaches a determination that it cannot remit a grant to the First Place Winner without violating applicable laws. CAF America (Federal Tax ID #43-1634280) is a globally recognized United States public charity described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, that sponsors donor advised funds, offers restricted fund services, and raises charitable funds from members of the public so that it may make monetary grants to other charitable entities or causes, both foreign and domestic. The approximate retail value of the First Place Prize is subject to the actual grants received by First Place Winner from CAF America in connection with the Experience.

(ii) Second Place Winner: The Second Place Winner will receive $15,000.00 USD (the “Second Place Prize”). The approximate retail value of the Second Place Prize is $15,000.00 USD.

(B) General Prize Terms: The First Place Prize and Second Place Prize (each a “Prize” and collectively the “Prizes”) are non-transferable and no substitution of a Prize is offered, except at the sole discretion of the Sponsor. If a Prize, or any portion thereof, cannot be awarded for any reason, Sponsor reserves the right to substitute a Prize with another prize of equal or greater value.

Winner will be issued an IRS 1099 form for the Prize value. A Prize will only be awarded to a verified and eligible Winner and may not be assigned. Potential Winners are subject to verification. If a potential Winner cannot be verified, or is found by Sponsor to be (i) ineligible, (ii) not in compliance with these Official Rules, (iii) non-responsive, or (iv) unable or unwilling to accept and claim the Prize as stated, or if the Winner Documentation is not timely returned within the required number of days, then potential Winner will be disqualified, and the Prize may be forfeited in Sponsor’s sole discretion. In the event that a potential Winner is disqualified for any reason, Sponsor reserves the right to award the Prize to an alternate potential Winner in a manner deemed fair and equitable by Sponsor, even if the name of the disqualified potential Winner may have been publicly announced.

(B) Class Action Waiver: You and Omaze each agree that either of us may bring claims against the other only in an individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding.

If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 12 shall be null and void.

(C) Limited Remedies: Additionally, except as may be provided for in Subsection 12(D), below, or prohibited by law, we each agree that, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Official Rules or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, or validity thereof or my participation in the Contest, our remedies are limited to a claim for money damages (if any) and we each irrevocably waive any right to seek injunctive or equitable relief.
