30. SIDETICK SWEEPSTAKES, PROMOTIONS AND PRIZES

    From time to time Sidetick may conduct contests, sweepstakes and/or other giveaways (individually and collectively, "Promotion"). Unless specifically noted otherwise by Sidetick, these terms and conditions shall serve as the official rules for any such Promotion conducted by Sidetick. Sidetick may terminate, extend, suspend or alter any Promotion in its sole discretion.


      a. ENTRY: No purchase necessary to participate or win. A purchase will not improve one's chance of winning. Void where prohibited. All federal, state and local taxes apply. You must be a registered member of Sidetick to participate in the Promotion. Entry into any Promotion will only be via the method specified by Sidetick in the Promotion's offer. Unless otherwise specified by Sidetick, you may enter as often as you wish. All entries must include the information requested by Sidetick to be eligible. Only one prize per person, household, email address and/or username will be allowed in any ninety (90) day period. All entries must be received within the time period stated by Sidetick during the Promotion's offer to be eligible to win a prize. Late and/or subsequent entries per person, per household per email address and/or username will be disqualified. Sidetick is not responsible for failure to receive an entry for any reason including but not limited to submission and/or transmission failures, technical malfunctions and/or other conditions beyond its reasonable control. Entries generated by script, macro or other automated means are void. All entries become the property of Sidetick and will not be acknowledged or returned.

      b. ELIGIBILITY: To participate, you must be a legal US resident, thirteen (13) years of age or older at the time of entry. Employees and contractors of Sidetick, and its sponsors and advertising agencies, and members of the immediate family of any such persons are not eligible to participate and/or win. The term "immediate family" includes spouses, domestic partners, siblings, parents, children, grandparents, grandchildren, or other family extension, and any other persons residing at the same household whether or not related.

      c. WINNER SELECTION: Sidetick's clock will be the official time keeper for all Promotions. Unless otherwise specified in the Promotion, winners will be chosen in a random drawing conducted by Sidetick. If a prize is offered to the first number of votes, posts, responses, "tweets," etc. (collectively, "Responses"), Sidetick will determine any such winners based on the order in which such Responses are received by Sidetick. In the event winners are selected based on the "best" submitted blog, message or other similar type of submission ("Submissions"), Sidetick will judge such Submissions and select the winners based equally on the originality and creativity of each Submission. All Submissions must be original unpublished works created by the individual entering such Submission. Winners will be notified within five (5) business days following the conclusion of the Promotion by an e-mail message and/or telephone. If a winner does not respond to such notification within five (5) business days and/or does not meet the stated eligibility requirements, such winner will be disqualified and Sidetick reserves the right to randomly select an alternate winner from the remaining eligible entries received for the applicable Promotion. Winners may be required to sign and return an Affidavit of Eligibility, Liability Release and, where legally permissible, a publicity release and/or provide other personal or tax information. Winners will have five (5) business days to provide all such information and to execute and return the Affidavit of Eligibility, Liability Release and publicity release (if required by Sidetick). By entering, participants in the Promotion release the Released Parties (defined below) from any claims, losses, injuries or damages of any kind resulting from participation in the Sweepstakes or the use or receipt of any prizes. The failure to comply with the foregoing requirements, or the return of any prize or prize notification as undeliverable may cause the winner to forfeit their prize and WE reserves the right to select an alternate winner. Sidetick's decisions concerning selection of winners, as well as all other matters relating to any Promotion, are final and binding. Odds of winning a Promotion will depend on the number of eligible entries received for the applicable Promotion.

      d. PRIZES: The number and value of prizes awarded in any Promotion will vary, but in no event will the total of value of any prizes awarded in any Promotion exceed $5000. Prizes may not be substituted, transferred or assigned except at Sidetick's sole discretion. Prize includes only what is specified in the prize description. Winners of concert/event tickets must be available to attend such concert/event on the date specified or another winner will be selected by Sidetick. Sidetick will not consider or fulfill any requests for additional or alternate prizes, including but not limited to requests for additional tickets, upgrades and/or alternate dates or seating. All prizes will be awarded.
