The Focus Forward Monthly Sweepstakes Official Rules
No Purchase Necessary to Enter or Win
1. Introduction
The Focus Forward Monthly Sweepstakes (the “Sweepstakes”) is presented in conjunction with the Survey Squad Survey Program (“Program”). The Terms and Conditions of the Survey Squad Online Survey Program may be found Here.
2. Eligibility
The Focus Forward Monthly Sweepstakes (the “Promotion”) is open only to registered participants in good standing of the Focus Forward survey panel who are legal residents of the 50 United States and the District of Columbia, 13 years of age or older and located in the U.S. at the time of entry (“Participants”). The information in the survey, if applicable, must be authentic, relevant to the study and meet any criteria established by Focus Forward for the survey applicants. Employees, contractors, directors and officers of Focus Forward (“Sponsor”) and their respective parents, subsidiaries and affiliated companies, distributors, licensees and the advertising, fulfillment, judging and promotion agencies involved in the development and administration of this Promotion (collectively, “Promotion Parties”), and their immediate family members (parent, child, sibling and spouse of each) and those living in the same households of each are not eligible. Void elsewhere and where prohibited by law.
3. How to Enter:
There are two ways to enter (collectively “Sweepstakes Entries”):
a. Online Entry
Receive an entry into the applicable Monthly Sweepstakes (as defined below) for each survey you complete during the applicable month (a “Completion Entry”). Some surveys may permit entry into the Monthly Sweepstakes to Participants that start the survey but do not qualify to complete the survey (e.g., when the survey is terminated by Sponsor) (a “Termination Entry”). If completion of the survey is required for online entry, the survey email invitation will so state. Some surveys may offer more than one entry for completing or terminating the survey, as announced in the survey email invitation. Completion Entries and Termination Entries are collectively “Online Entries”
b. Mail-in Entry
If, upon receipt of an invitation to answer a survey, Participant elects not to complete the survey, Participant may enter the Sweepstakes by writing his/her first and last name, complete mailing address, daytime telephone number, date of birth, email address, and the date and complete URL address to the survey for which Participant was selected on a 3 x 5 inch (or 7.5 x 12.5 cm) card and mail it in an envelope to:
Focus Forward Monthly Sweepstakes Entry
950 West Valley Road, Suite 2700
Wayne, PA 19087
Mail-in Participants will receive the same number of entries as if the survey had been completed. For each survey, you may only enter once via Online Entry or via Mail-in Entry, not both. You may only take each survey once, but you will receive the number of entries associated with each survey completed for the applicable Monthly Drawing.
4. Monthly Sweepstakes Drawings
Sponsor will conduct monthly drawings from among all eligible entries received during each calendar month (a “Monthly Sweepstakes”). A “calendar month” begins at 12:00:01 a.m. Eastern Time (“ET”) on the first day of each calendar month and ends at 11:59:59 p.m. ET on the last day of each calendar month (“Entry Period”). After each monthly Entry Period, on or about the 10th day of each month following the close of the previous month’s Entry Period, Sponsor will select winners at random. If no eligible entries are received within a calendar month, a random sweepstakes drawing will not be conducted for that month. All decisions are final and binding. The odds of winning depend on the number of eligible entries received from all Online Entries and Mail-in Entries during the relevant Entry Period. Each drawing is conducted separately; no entries are carried over to subsequent drawings. Sponsor reserves the right to terminate the Monthly Sweepstakes at any time after the then current Entry Period.
5. Prizes, Approximate Retail Value (“ARV”) & Odds
One (1) Grand Prize: 250,000 points. One (1) First Prize: 100,000 points. One Second Prize: 50,000 points and Four (4) Third Prizes: 25,000 points. Total ARV of all prizes is 500,000 points.
