NO PURCHASE NECESSARY

These Official Rules govern the ACE Youth Scholarship Contest Promotion (the “Promotion”). The “Sponsor” of the Promotion is Action for the Climate Emergency (ACE), a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization based in Boulder, CO. Participation in the Promotion is also governed by the Sponsor’s Terms and Conditions [A3] (the “Terms”) and Sponsor’s Privacy Policy [SS4] (the “Sponsor Privacy Policy”), and such Terms, and Sponsor Privacy Policy are hereby incorporated in their entirety into these Official Rules by reference. In case of a conflict between the Terms and/or the Official Rules, the Terms shall govern.

ELIGIBILITY: Only open to Members (“Members”) of the ACE Youth Scholarship Contest Promotion as defined in the Terms.

PROMOTION DESCRIPTION: The Promotion begins on July 1, 2022 at 12:00:01 a.m. Central Time (“CT”) and ends on June 15, 2023 at 11:59:59 p.m. CT (the “Promotion Period”). Winners will be notified by July 15, 2024.

The Promotion consists of a random drawing the “Sweepstakes.”

The Sweepstakes. In the Sweepstakes each member of the Program will receive one (1) entry into the Sweepstakes after signing up for ACE’s Youth Action Network during the Participation Period with either email, mobile number or both. For Members who joined the Promotion by signing up for ACE’s Youth Action Network, each member of the Program must be subscribed to ACE’s email or mobile program through the duration of the Promotion Period in order to maintain eligibility for the Promotion. At the conclusion of the Participation Period, a random drawing will be held to select the Sweepstakes prize winner from among all eligible entries received during the corresponding Participation Period, as described herein. Members who joined the network via ACE’s voter registration pledge forms are not eligible.

Participation in the Promotion does not constitute participation and/or entry into any other promotion, contest or sweepstakes. By participating in the Promotion, each participant unconditionally accepts and agrees to comply with and abide by these Official Rules and the decisions of Action for the Climate Emergency (ACE), 4696 Broadway, Suite 2, Boulder, CO 80304 (“Sponsor”), which shall be final and binding in all respects.

SWEEPSTAKES PRIZE WINNER SELECTION AND NOTIFICATION. At the end of each Participation Period, the prize winner(s) will be selected in a random drawing from among all eligible entries received during the corresponding Participation Period. The potential prize winner will be notified by telephone and/or mail and/or e-mail, using contact information provided or collected at the time of registration. Sponsor shall have no liability for any winner notification that is lost, intercepted or not received by a potential winner for any reason. If, despite reasonable efforts, a potential winner does not respond within seventy-two (72) hours of the first notification attempt, or if the prize or prize notification is returned as unclaimed or undeliverable to such potential winner, such potential winner will forfeit his or her prize and an alternate winner may be selected, as applicable. Sponsor, in its sole discretion, will attempt to contact up to three (3) potential winners of a prize in accordance with the above procedure, after which the prize in question may go unawarded if it remains unclaimed. 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 prize for any reason prior to award, such potential prize winner will be disqualified and an alternate prize winner may be selected. Odds of winning depend on the total number of eligible entries received.
