You agree by submitting an Entry, regardless of whether you win or not, you give us the right to use that Entry, any related photos or videos (image, etc.) and content -- that means for example we may announce your name, X handle and any photo, video, content or words tweeted by you as part of entering the Sweepstakes.

NOTIFICATION OF WINNERS (hmm…do I need to watch my X account?)

We will announce the winner at of each drawing via our X account @cubexch. For a X Entry winner, we will first message you in writing on X that your Entry has been randomly drawn within two (2) days of the drawing and ask for an email address from you to send you the official notification of your Sweepstakes win and other information to claim the Prize. For any Initial Free AMOE winner, we already have your email from your snail Entry. Potential Prize winners will receive an email within two days of the drawing for their win.

Yes - you really are only a potential Prize winner when we notify you by email, because the darn lawyers make us do a lot of paperwork. Each potential Prize winner will receive by email and need to complete and return a notarized affidavit of liability/publicity release, which must be received by us within seven (7) calendar days of our email notice to you. If we don't hear back from you (or you decline the Prize), an alternate winner may be randomly drawn.

So be warned : If a potential Prize winner cannot be contacted, is a bot, is ineligible, fails to claim the prize, is under the age of 18 or fails to return the required documents and claim their Prize within seven (7) calendar days of notification, we will conduct a new drawing within three months of the drawing date for a new Prize winner. We are not responsible for the safe arrival of any notification, confirmation thereof, or other correspondence.
