4. Conditions
Decisions made by SANDAG management with respect to the Sweepstakes are final.
The Sweepstakes is governed by and subject to the laws of the State of California and the United States. All federal, state, and local laws and regulations apply. Void where prohibited by law. Sweepstakes award recipients will pay all applicable taxes and fees.
By participating in the Sweepstakes, the participant agrees to have their name, voice, and likeness used by SANDAG in any advertising or broadcasting material including, but not limited to, social media relating to the Sweepstakes without additional financial or other compensation, and, where legal, to sign a publicity release confirming such consent prior to acceptance of any Sweepstakes award. Prior to the release of the Sweepstakes award to the winner, SANDAG, in its sole discretion, may require the Sweepstakes award winner (and any travel companion(s) or guest(s)) to sign a liability release, agreeing to release and hold harmless SANDAG, its officers and employees, member agencies, directors, agents, and representatives and all of their successors and assigns from and against any and all claims or liability arising directly or indirectly from the use of the Sweepstakes award and participation in the Sweepstakes.
The Sweepstakes award must be accepted within two (2) business days of the date SANDAG sends notification to the winner. If a potential winner cannot be contacted or fails to sign and return the required affidavit of eligibility and/or liability or publicity release within two (2) business days of SANDAG sending the notification of winning, the potential winner forfeits the Sweepstakes award and a new winner will be selected. Substitute winners will have two (2) business days to claim the Sweepstakes award. The Sweepstakes award will be mailed to the winner, signature required.
The Sweepstakes award is expressly limited to the items listed above and there is no substitution, transfer, or cash equivalent, except that SANDAG may, at its sole discretion, substitute an award of comparable value. The winners will be solely responsible for all taxes and all other fees and expenses associated with the receipt and use of the Sweepstakes award. SANDAG is not responsible for prize utility, quality, or otherwise.
If for any reason this Sweepstakes cannot be executed as planned, including, but not limited to, as a result of infection by computer virus, tampering, unauthorized intervention, fraud, technical failures, incomplete or unintelligible entries, or any other causes beyond the control of SANDAG that corrupt or affect the security, administration, fairness, integrity, or proper conduct of the Sweepstakes, or if the Sweepstakes is compromised or becomes technically corrupted in any way, electronically or otherwise, SANDAG reserves the right to cancel, terminate, or modify the Sweepstakes. If the Sweepstakes is terminated before the original end date, those participating in the Sweepstakes prior to the termination will still be eligible to receive the Sweepstakes award.
SANDAG, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to disqualify any person tampering with the Sweepstakes process or the operation of SANDAG, MTS, Rapid, or related agency websites. Failure to comply with the official rules of the Sweepstakes may result in a participant’s disqualification and/or forfeiture of any Sweepstakes award. If SANDAG makes a good faith determination that cheating or fraudulent activity has occurred in connection with the Sweepstakes, SANDAG reserves the right to disqualify that participant from winning future promotions and to prosecute and seek damages to the fullest extent permitted by law.
The Sweepstakes may be combined with other SANDAG promotions. Where a conflict exists between promotions, SANDAG reserves the right to determine which promotion will apply. SANDAG reserves the right to make changes in the official rules of the Sweepstakes without prior notice, which will become effective upon announcement. If due to circumstances beyond the control of SANDAG, any competition or award-related event or travel is delayed, rescheduled, postponed, or cancelled, SANDAG reserves the right, but not the obligation, to cancel or modify the Sweepstakes and shall not be required to make a substitute award.
