Furthermore, Sponsor shall have no liability for any entry that is lost, intercepted or not received by the Sponsor. Tampering with the entry process or the operation of the Promotion, including but not limited to the use of any device to automate the entry process other than as contemplated by these Official Rules, is prohibited and any entry deemed by Sponsor, in its sole discretion, to have been submitted in this manner will be declared invalid and disqualified.

If any potential prize winner is found to be ineligible, or if he or she has not complied with these Official Rules or declines the applicable prize for any reason prior to award, such potential prize winner will be disqualified and an alternate winner may be selected.
