8.    ELIGIBILITY: The Sweepstakes is open only to legal residents of the United States of America who are 18 years old or older and all United States Territories. Void where prohibited by law. Participation in the Sweepstakes constitutes full and unconditional agreement to these Official Rules. The following individuals are not eligible: (a) employees, officers, and directors of FindKeep.Love or the Sponsors, including all respective parent companies, subsidiaries, affiliates, partners, advertisers, marketing and promotion agencies, manufacturers or distributors of promotion materials, and representatives; and (b) members of the immediate family (parents, children, siblings, or spouses) of a person in (a) and/or those living in the same household as a person in (a), regardless of familial relation. All federal, state and local laws and regulations apply. Entrants agree to be bound by the terms of these official rules and by the decisions of FindKeep.Love, which are final and binding on all matters pertaining to this Sweepstakes. Entrants are prohibited from submitting an entry for a purpose other than entering the Sweepstakes for the entrant’s personal benefit. Prohibited purposes include, but are not limited to, engaging in competition with FindKeep.Love and/or any of the Sponsors and luring emails to any fraud management tool such as a “spamtrap” or “honey pot.” If any entry or entrant is determined to be non-compliant with these Official Rules, said entry or entrant shall be disqualified.

9.    RANDOM DRAWING: Following the End Date, one random winner for all Prizes will be selected. Decisions of FindKeep.Love are final and binding in all respects. FindKeep.Love will notify the winner by email. If a winner receives such an email does not respond to FindKeep.Love’s notification within 72 hours or is unwilling to or cannot accept the Prize, the Prize will be forfeited and an alternate winner may be selected from the Sweepstakes entrants. If an entrant is deemed ineligible, an alternate winner may be selected from the entry pool. If by reason of a printing or other error, more prizes are claimed than the number set forth in these rules, all persons making purportedly valid claims will be included in a random drawing to award the advertised number of prizes available in the prize category in question. No more than the advertised number of prizes will be awarded. At the sole discretion of FindKeep.Love, disqualification, forfeiture, and the selection of an alternate winner may result from any of the following: (1) a winner’s failure to respond to winner notification within three days of transmission; (2) the return of a notification that an email was undeliverable after one attempt; (3) a winner’s failure to provide FindKeep.Love with satisfactory proof of age, identity, and residency within three days of initial winner notification; (4) a winner’s failure to execute and return an affidavit of Eligibility/Liability/Publicity Release or requested tax information or W9 within three days of its transmission; or (5) any other non-compliance with these Official Rules. The prize will be delivered to the winner within one week of completion of all necessary forms and after notification, or at such time as the prize becomes available. All federal, state and local laws and regulations apply.

10. ODDS: Odds of winning a Prize depend on the number of eligible entries received, but can be calculated by dividing the total number of entrants by the number of prizes.

14. GOVERNING LAW: In the event of a dispute between you and FindKeep.Love, either may choose to resolve the dispute by binding arbitration, as described below, instead of in court.

Even if all parties have opted to litigate a claim in court, you or FindKeep.Love may elect arbitration with respect to any claim made by a new party or any new claims later asserted in that lawsuit. FindKeep.Love will not choose to arbitrate any claim you bring in small claims court. However, if such a claim is transferred, removed, or appealed to a different court, FindKeep.Love may then choose to arbitrate and you agree that in so doing, FindKeep.Love will not have waived any rights. Any action brought in a court against FindKeep.Love shall be brought in the State Courts of California in Santa Clara County or in the federal court in the Northern District of California and you and FindKeep.Love both agree to be subject to personal jurisdiction in the State of California. Except where otherwise indicated, the laws of the United States and California govern this contract. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may pursue injunctive or other equitable remedies in the above-identified courts and such claims shall not be subject to arbitration.
