VOLUSION, LLC ONLINE SOCIAL MEDIA CONTESTS, SWEEPSTAKES AND PRIZE GIVEAWAY OFFICIAL RULES

Volusion, LLC is (the "We", "Us", "Our" and "Company"). We may occasionally conduct contests, sweepstakes, and/or other giveaways (individually and collectively, "Promotions") on social media/networking websites including, but not limited to twitter.com, facebook.com, pinterest.com, instragram.com, and youtube.com (each, a "Social Media Site"). Unless specifically noted otherwise by Us, these terms and conditions shall serve as the official rules for any such Promotion conducted by Us. By participating in a Promotion, you agree to be bound by these "Official Rules." We may update these Official Rules as We deem necessary in Our sole discretion.

Each individual Promotion will be announced via a status update, Tweet, blog post, email or other call-to-action ("Promotion Posting"). A Promotion Posting will include how to enter, the entry deadline, the drawing date (for a sweepstakes) or method of determining the winner (for a contest) and the prize(s)/value(s). We may terminate, extend, suspend or alter any Promotion in Our sole discretion.

Winner Selection

• FOR SWEEPSTAKES: Potential winners of a Promotion will be chosen in a random drawing conducted by Us from among all eligible entries received for the applicable Promotion on or about the date set forth in the Promotion Posting. Odds of winning a particular Promotion will depend on the number of eligible entries received for such Promotion. If a prospective prizewinner is found ineligible or fails to comply with these official rules, his or her claim to a prize is forfeited and an alternate entry will be randomly selected.
• FOR CONTESTS: In the event winners of a Promotion are judged based on the "best" submitted story, photo, video, essay, message or other similar type of submission ("Submissions"), a panel of qualified judges will judge each Submission based equally on the originality, creativity, and relevance to the theme of the Promotion. If alternate criteria are provided in the Promotion Posting, such criteria shall apply. The Submission with the highest score will be deemed the potential winner(s) for the contest at issue. In the event of a tie, an additional, "tie-breaking" judge will determine the potential winner(s) based on the same criteria used by the original panel of judges. All Submissions must be original unpublished works created by the individual entering such Submission, and must not contain any third party material unless permission to use such material(s) has been granted by such third party. We reserve the right not to award all prizes in any contest if, in Our sole discretion, We do not receive a sufficient number of eligible and qualified entries for that contest.

Prizes

• The number and approximate retail value of prizes awarded in any Promotion will vary and will be set forth in the Promotion Posting.
• Prizes cannot be redeemed for cash or resold for any consideration.
• Only one prize per person, household, email address and/or username will be allowed in any ninety (90) day period.
• One of Our representatives will notify winners by message via the social media platform on which the entry was submitted, and/or via e-mail and/or telephone, depending on the information provided at the time of entry. If a winner does not respond within 5 days or chooses not to accept the prize, the prize will be forfeited and an alternate winner may be selected at Our discretion. We are not responsible and will not be liable for an unsuccessful attempt to notify the winner.
• The determination of eligibility and winners and all other interpretations of these rules will be within Our sole discretion. We reserve the right to change the Promotion rules or duration, or terminate the Promotion at any time.
