Potential prize winner agrees to be bound by Sponsor’s review and analysis of the background check, which is not subject to appeal.
†Potential prize winner agrees that an electronic signature/affirmation or facsimile version of the Affidavit/Release shall have the same legal force and effect as a hand-signed document.
