How to Enter
The Giveaways will begin and end at the times specified by MPB. Equipment owned by MPB, MPB Foundation and third parties employed by the MPB Foundation shall serve as the official time keeping devices for all Giveaways.
Entry methods for Giveaways will be specified by MPB and entries must be received during the time periods specified.
Entries must be submitted in the manner specified by MPB. The use of any automated system to enter a Giveaway is prohibited and will result in disqualification.
In the event of a dispute as to any entry, the authorized account holder of the email address or telephone number used in connection with the Giveaway will be deemed the entrant.
Each participant acknowledges that he/she has read, understands and agrees to be bound by these Official Rules. By submitting an entry, you warrant that your entry complies with all the requirements set out in these Official Rules and as otherwise specified by MPB and the MPB Foundation.
Winner Selection
Winners will be determined according to the method specified by MPB, at MPB’s sole and exclusive discretion.
No purchase or payment is necessary.
A purchase or payment will not increase your chances of winning.
Due to the time delay between the radio station’s over-the-air signal and its online webcast, online listeners may hear Giveaway information or a cue to call the station later than over-the-air listeners may. As a result, the odds of an online listener winning a Giveaway may be diminished. The odds of winning are generally dependent on either the number of entries received or your place in line when needed to call in to the station.
Winners are subject to verification by MPB and/or the MPB Foundation for compliance with these Official Rules.
Winners may be required to sign and return an affidavit of eligibility and/or a release agreement to win a prize.
In the event a winner is disqualified for any reason, MPB may award the prize to an alternate winner, or not award the prize at all.
Prizes
Prizes will be as specified by Sponsor.
All prizes won by minors will be awarded to a parent or legal guardian.
All winners hereby grant MPB the right to use his/her name and likeness in promotional materials relating to the station.
The prizes are not transferable, nor are there substitutions or cash redemptions, except at MPB’s discretion if any of the prizes become unavailable.
MPB and the MPB Foundation assumes no responsibility or liability for damages, loss or injury resulting from acceptance or use of any prize.
