SPONSOR: Ziff Davis, LLC with an address of 28 E. 28th St., New York, NY 10016 ("Ziff Davis").

How to enter: To enter the sweepstakes, entrants must provide a valid email address in the entry form and supply the required information (including a valid email address) during the Sweepstakes Period. Subsequent attempts made by the same individual to submit multiple entries by using multiple accounts or otherwise may be disqualified. Employees of the Sponsor(s) and its affiliates, and immediate family members of such employees, are not eligible to enter. All previous winners of any sweepstakes sponsored by Ziff Davis during the nine (9) month period prior to the Selection Date are not eligible to enter.

Mechanical or facsimile reproductions, entries using macro, script or other forms of automatic entry and entries which subvert the entry process will be disqualified. Valid entries must contain all information requested and must be received on or before the deadline for registration. Entries which are late, lost, stolen, mutilated, tampered with, illegible, incomplete, mechanically reproduced, inaccurate, forged, irregular in any way or otherwise not in compliance with these Official Rules will be disqualified. Sponsor is not responsible for such entries. All entries become the property of the Sponsor and will not be acknowledged or returned. Limit one (1) entry per person. Any other form of entry is void.

Entries are subject to any applicable restrictions or eligibility requirements listed herein. Entries will be deemed made by the authorized account holder of the email or telephone phone number submitted at the time of entry and qualification. The Sponsor is not responsible for entries not received due to difficulty accessing the internet, service outage or delays, computer difficulties and other technological problems. Multiple participants are not permitted to share the same email address.   Should multiple users of the same e-mail account or mobile phone number, as applicable, enter the Sweepstakes and a dispute thereafter arise regarding the identity of the entrant, the authorized account holder of said e-mail account or mobile phone account at the time of entry will be considered the entrant. "Authorized account holder" is defined as the natural person who is assigned an e-mail address by an Internet access provider, on-line service provider, telephone service provider or other organization which is responsible for assigning e-mail addresses. Proof of submission of an entry shall not be deemed proof of receipt by the website administrator for online entries. When applicable, the website administrator's computer will be deemed the official time keeping device for the Sweepstakes promotion. Entries will be disqualified if found to be incomplete and/or if prohibited multiple entries are determined. The Company assumes no responsibility for contestants not making timely entries as a result of the delays in the Internet stream or otherwise.

Winner Notification: Ziff Davis shall select the prize winner on or about October 20, 2015 ("Selection Date") by random drawing from among all eligible entries received. Winner will be notified via email or by U.S. mail. The only entries that will be considered eligible entries are entries received within the time frames described above. Odds of winning depend on the number of eligible entries received. If an entrant is unable to verify registration information, the entrant will automatically be disqualified and their prize, if any, will be forfeited. The Sponsor reserves at its sole discretion the right to choose an alternative qualifier or possible winner in the event that that a qualifier or possible winner has been disqualified or is deemed ineligible.
