Official rules for all Contests and Sweepstakes on BlogPaws websites.
NO PURCHASE NECESSARY TO ENTER OR WIN. A PURCHASE WILL NOT INCREASE YOUR CHANCES OF WINNING. ALL FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, AND MUNICIPAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS APPLY. VOID WHERE PROHIBITED.
When stated, contests are open to US residents only. All winners must be 18 years of age or older, unless otherwise stated and/or posted.
- How to Enter Contests or Sweepstakes and Drawing and Notification of Winners: Winners of random online contests or sweepstakes will be chosen at random from entries received.
- Entrants must send entries using the correct contest or sweepstakes entry email address, subject line, and any other specific entry information requested in the contest or sweepstakes announcement. Once submitted, an entry cannot be deleted, canceled or modified.
- Entrants may also mail entries to BlogPaws, a Pet360, Inc. Company, Attn: Contests, 13824 Fillmore St, Thornton, CO, 80602. Mailed entries must include the contest or sweepstakes name, subject line, a valid email and postal address, and any other specific entry information requested in the contest or sweepstakes announcement and are subject to the same entry period and rules as online entries.
- BlogPaws is not responsible for and will not consider incomplete or incorrect entries, or emails sent or entries mailed but not received by BlogPaws for any reason, as potential contest winners.
- Winners of all contests will be contacted at the email used to enter the contest, and the person receiving and replying to the winner announcement email will be considered the winner unless they specify another person within the reply email as the winner. If necessary, BlogPaws will mail the contest prize to the address supplied by the recipient of the winner announcement email.
- Odds of winning will depend on the total number of eligible entries received. Only one entry per email address used to send the email or per postal address, if entry is mailed, will be considered for contest or sweepstakes entry, unless multiple entries are specifically allowed in the contest or sweepstakes posting. Unless otherwise specified in an individual contest or sweepstakes post, no person may enter any contest more than once using multiple email addresses or postal addresses.
- Prize Conditions: All winners are solely responsible for all applicable federal, state, and local taxes and/or any other fees/costs associated with the receipt of any prize. All taxes, if applicable, are the sole responsibility of the winner. In the event of noncompliance with the Official Rules, if a winner cannot be reached at the address/phone number on winner’s entry within 5 days of the first attempt, or if the prize or prize notification is returned as unclaimed or undeliverable, an alternate winner will be selected. The winner’s entry and acceptance of the prize offered constitutes permission (except where prohibited by law or Sponsor’s Privacy Policy) for the Sponsor to use said winner’s name, photograph, likeness, statements, biographical information, voice and address (city and state), in all forms of media, in perpetuity, without notice or further compensation. BlogPaws is not required to award elsewhere any prizes forfeited by the chosen winner(s).
- Neither BlogPaws, BlogPaws sponsors, nor employees of BlogPaws or sponsors may be held liable for any warranty, costs, damage, injury, or any other claims incurred as a result of usage of any winners of a prize once possession has been taken of the product by winner. BlogPaws is not liable for any loss arising out of or in connection with or resulting from any contest promoted by BlogPaws.
- If the specified prize becomes unavailable due to unforeseen circumstances, BlogPaws may substitute a prize of like or equal value.
