4. LIMITATION. Each Entry must be submitted by the Entrant him or herself. All Entries must be received during the Sweepstakes Period. Sponsor is not responsible for lost, late, undelivered, invalid, unintelligible, incomplete, misdirected, illegible, or damaged Entries, which will be disqualified.

Any attempt by any Entrant to enter by using multiple accounts on Facebook, e-mail addresses, identities, registrations and logins, or any other methods will void that Entrant’s Entries and that Entrant may be disqualified, at the sole discretion of Sponsor. Use of any automated system to participate is prohibited and will result in disqualification. In the event of a dispute as to the identity of any person who submitted an Entry, the authorized account holder of the email address or Facebook account used to enter will be deemed to be the Entrant. The "authorized account holder" is the natural person assigned an email address or social media account by an Internet access provider, online service provider, or other organization responsible for assigning email addresses or social media accounts for the domain associated with the submitted address. Potential winners may be required to show proof of being the authorized account holder. In the event a dispute regarding the identity of the individual who actually submitted an Entry cannot be resolved to Sponsor’s satisfaction, the affected Entry will be deemed ineligible.

5. WINNER SELECTION AND NOTIFICATION. Potential winners will be chosen by a random draw supervised by an independent person on or about 9:00 AM PDT/12:00 PM EDT on September 26, 2017 (the "Draw Date"). Sponsor's decisions on all matters relating to this Sweepstakes are final and binding and no correspondence will be entered into about it. Prior to being declared a winner, and except where prohibited, the potential winners may be required to complete, sign, and return an affidavit of eligibility, liability release, and publicity release to be confirmed as one of the winners. If required, the prize will be forfeited if documents are not returned, signed, and completed within the timeframe required. In all cases, the prize will be forfeited if the winner is found to be ineligible or otherwise not in compliance with these Official Rules. Potential winners will be notified by direct message on Facebook within approximately one (1) day of the applicable Draw Date at the Facebook account used to enter the Sweepstakes. If a potential winner fails to respond within three (3) days of notification or if the notification is consistently returned as undeliverable or fails to reach such potential winner for any reason (including, without limitation, "soft" and "hard" email "bounces") or if such potential winner fails to respond for any reason to the notification as directed, such potential winner will be disqualified and an alternate winner will be selected, who will be subject to disqualification in the same manner. It is the Entrant’s responsibility to timely set Facebook account settings to accept contacts by Sponsor and to timely check your account for such messages.  Sponsor is not responsible for any failure of delivery of notice attempting to use such notification methods. 

 

6. PRIZE; APPROXIMATE RETAIL VALUE; ODDS OF WINNING. There are a total of three (3) prizes available to be won, each consisting of a single Cult of Chucky Blu-ray™/DVD combo pack (a total approximate retail value ("ARV") of $19.95). ARV determined as of September 22, 2017. Winner is not entitled to the difference, if any, between the actual and approximate retail value of the prize. Prize is non-transferable, non-exchangeable, and not redeemable for cash. Sponsor reserves the right to substitute a prize for one of equal or greater value if a designated prize should become unavailable for any reason or for any other reason in Sponsor's sole discretion. Sponsor makes no representations or warranties with respect to any prize. Prize includes delivery to one (1) U.S.A. address only, as supplied by selected winner. Any other costs or expenses associated with the prizes (e.g., any food or drink for consumption at the screening) will be the sole responsibility of selected winner. The odds of winning depend on the total number of eligible Entries received during the Sweepstakes Period.

PERSONAL INFORMATION. Sponsor and its authorized agents will collect, use, and disclose the personal information you provide when you enter the Sweepstakes for the purposes of administering the Sweepstakes and prize fulfillment. By entering this Sweepstakes, you consent to such collection, use, and disclosure of your personal information. All information collected by Sponsor in connection with participation in the Sweepstakes will be subject to Sponsor's Privacy Policy as posted on www.nbcuni.com/privacy.

8. RIGHT TO VOID/MODIFY/SUSPEND. Sponsor reserves the right to terminate, suspend, or modify this Sweepstakes, in whole or in part, at any time and without notice or obligation if, in Sponsor's sole opinion, any factor interferes with its proper conduct as contemplated by these Official Rules. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Sweepstakes, or any part thereof, is not capable of running as planned for any reason, including but not limited to infection by computer virus, bugs, tampering, unauthorized intervention, fraud, programming errors, or technical failures, which, in the sole opinion of Sponsor, corrupt or affect the administration, security, fairness, integrity, or proper conduct of this Sweepstakes, Sponsor may, in its sole discretion, void any suspect Entries and: (a) terminate the Sweepstakes, or any portion thereof; (b) modify or suspend the Sweepstakes, or any portion thereof, to address the impairment and then resume the Sweepstakes, or relevant portion, in a manner that best conforms to the spirit of these Official Rules; and/or (c) award the prize from among the eligible, non-suspect Entries received up to the time of the impairment in accordance with the winner selection criteria discussed above. In the event of (c) in the previous sentence, Sponsor reserves the right in its sole discretion to not award any of the prizes (or any portion thereof) or less than the stated number of prizes if Sponsor determines that there are no eligible Entrants or not enough eligible Entrants to award all of the prizes.
