Official Rules

No purchase or payment of any kind is necessary to enter or win this promotional sweepstakes (the “Promotion”). A purchase will not increase your chances of winning.

There are three ways to enter, described in Section 4. Two of them are free. All entries, however obtained, are entered into the same drawing, have the same chance of being selected, and are eligible for the same prizes.

The Promotion is open only to legal residents of the fifty (50) United States and the District of Columbia who are eighteen (18) years of age or older at the time of entry. Void where prohibited.

States excluded from this Promotion: [set when a promotion opens]. Where a state is excluded, its residents are not eligible to enter or win, and the exclusion is stated here before the Promotion opens.

The time of entry is the postmark date for a mail-in entry, and the moment the verification or the purchase completes for an entry under Section 4.1 or Section 4.3.

Eligibility is determined by legal residence. The address from which an entrant sends an entry does not determine eligibility, and no entry will be refused because it is sent from an APO, FPO or DPO address.

The following are not eligible to enter or win: SCORCH LLC; its founders, officers, directors and employees; contractors involved in the Promotion; and the immediate family members (spouse, parent, child, sibling, and their respective spouses) and household members of each.

The Promotion begins at [set when a promotion opens] and ends at [set when a promotion opens]. Entries are accepted during the Promotion Period, except that mail-in entries are governed by the postmark and receipt deadlines stated in Section 4.2.

4.1 Free entry on account verification

Create an account and verify both an email address and a mobile telephone number. On completing both verifications you receive one (1) entry, free of charge.

This entry is limited to one (1) per person, ever. The limit is per person. It is not per email address and it is not per telephone number.

This entry applies at full weight to every promotion that is open at the moment verification is completed.

4.2 Free entry by mail

To enter free of charge by mail, hand-print all of the following on a plain card measuring at least 3½ inches by 5 inches and no more than 4¼ inches by 6 inches:

• your full name;
• your email address;
• your telephone number;
• your state of residence, or the District of Columbia; and
• your year of birth.

All five are required. Write them on the address side of the card, in the space to the left of the entry address, so that the whole entry can be read from the side that carries the postmark. Mail the card, with proper postage, to the entry address:

Send mail-in entries to that address, whether or not it is the same as the Sponsor’s address in Section 14.

By submitting a mail-in entry you affirm that you meet the eligibility requirements set out in Section 2.

Each card that complies with these Official Rules receives one (1) entry. There is no limit on the number of cards you may send.

Each entry must be mailed separately as an individual postcard bearing its own postage. Cards received enclosed in an envelope or bundled with other entries receive one (1) entry in total.

Each card is entered into every promotion that is open on the date the card is received.

Cards must be postmarked by [set when a promotion opens] and received by [set when a promotion opens]. The drawing takes place after the receipt deadline.

A card postmarked after [set when a promotion opens], or received after [set when a promotion opens], is void. It receives no entry in this Promotion, and it is not held over for any later promotion. A card that is late for this Promotion but is received while another promotion is open is entered into that promotion under that promotion’s Official Rules.

A card showing a year of birth under which the entrant cannot have been eighteen (18) at the postmark date is void, and the personal information on it is not retained.

Mechanically reproduced, photocopied or illegible entries are void. Sponsor is not responsible for lost, late, misdirected, postage-due or undelivered mail. Mail-in entries become the property of Sponsor and will not be returned. Mail-in entries are administered by Sponsor.

A card is void only for the reasons stated in this Section 4.2. A card missing any of the five required items cannot be entered. The card’s dimensions, the side you write on, and the FREE ENTRY line in the address are there so that we can read and route your entry; a card is not void for departing from them.

4.3 Entry with purchase

During the Promotion Period you may purchase digital collectible trading-card packs at scorchpacks.com. Each card in a paid pack carries exactly one (1) entry.

The purchase price is paid for the digital collectible cards; entries are included at no additional charge.

Entries from a purchase apply to every promotion that is open at the moment the purchase completes.

• Account verification entry: one (1) per person, ever.
• Mail-in entry: one (1) entry per card, each mailed separately. There is no limit on the number of cards you may send.
• Purchase: one (1) entry per card in a paid pack.

Entries obtained through automation, scripts, bots, multiple or false accounts, or false identities are void, and Sponsor may disqualify the entrant.

[set when a promotion opens] potential winner(s) will be selected at random from among all eligible entries received. The drawing will take place on or about [set when a promotion opens], after the receipt deadline stated in Section 4.2.

The odds of winning depend on the number of eligible entries received. No purchase or payment is necessary to enter or win, and a purchase does not improve a person’s chances of winning.

Sponsor’s determination of eligibility is final.

[set when a promotion opens] prize(s) will be awarded: [set when a promotion opens]. Approximate Retail Value (“ARV”): [set when a promotion opens]. Total ARV of all prizes offered in this Promotion: [set when a promotion opens].

A prize will be shipped at Sponsor’s expense within thirty (30) days of verification, to the delivery address the confirmed winner provides at claim under Section 8. Where a delivery address cannot practicably be served, Sponsor will work with the winner to arrange an alternative delivery address.

No cash alternative, substitution, transfer or assignment of a prize is available to the winner. Sponsor reserves the right to substitute a prize of equal or greater value if the stated prize becomes unavailable. All prize details not stated above are at Sponsor’s discretion.

All federal, state and local taxes on a prize are the sole responsibility of the winner. Sponsor will report a prize award and withhold where required by law, and a potential winner must complete and return any tax documentation Sponsor requires before a prize is released.

A selected entrant is a potential winner only, and remains provisional until verified.

Sponsor will notify each potential winner by email at the address associated with the entry and, where a telephone number has been provided, by telephone. Email is the notification method of record.

Notification will be sent within three (3) business days of the drawing. It is each entrant’s responsibility to provide a valid email address and to monitor it.

A potential winner must respond within five (5) business days of the first notification attempt and, before a prize is awarded, must execute and return an Affidavit of Eligibility, a Liability Release and — except where prohibited — a Publicity Release, together with a delivery address for the prize, a telephone number if one is not already associated with the entry, and any required tax documentation, within ten (10) calendar days of receipt.

If a potential winner cannot be reached, fails to respond within the stated period, declines the prize, is found ineligible, fails to return the required documents, or if any notification or prize is returned as undeliverable, the prize is forfeited and an alternate winner may be selected at random from among the remaining eligible entries, time permitting. A maximum of three (3) alternate selections will be made, after which a prize may go unawarded.

The winner will be announced on or about [set when a promotion opens].

9.1 One version of these Rules per Promotion. These Official Rules are fixed when the Promotion opens and do not change for the duration of the Promotion Period. Exactly one fixed version governs any one Promotion.

9.2 The digital collectible cards. Cards are digital and non-transferable. They cannot be sold, traded, or exchanged for cash or for anything else of value. A purchaser receives a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to access the cards in the purchaser’s account; no intellectual property rights are transferred. Cards a purchaser acquired legitimately are not revoked arbitrarily. Revocation of a card, suspension or termination of an account, and what happens to a collection afterwards are governed by Sponsor’s Terms of Service at /terms, sections 7.2, 14 and 15, and not by these Official Rules. Conduct in this Promotion is dealt with under these Official Rules — see Sections 5 and 9.5 — and does not by itself revoke cards a participant acquired legitimately. Features within the product that combine, consume or upgrade cards grant no entries and have no cash value.

9.3 All sales are final. The entry list for a drawing is finalised after the receipt deadline stated in Section 4.2 and before the drawing. If a purchase is refunded before the entry list for a drawing has been finalised, the cards obtained in that purchase are revoked and the entries associated with them are revoked with them. If a purchase is refunded after the entry list has been finalised, the cards are revoked and the entries associated with them stand for that drawing.

9.4 Agreement to these Rules. By entering, each entrant agrees to be bound by these Official Rules and by Sponsor’s Terms of Service at /terms and Privacy Policy at /privacy, and agrees that Sponsor’s decisions are final and binding in all matters relating to the Promotion.

9.5 Sponsor’s reservations. Sponsor may disqualify any individual it reasonably believes has tampered with the entry process or the operation of the Promotion, acted in violation of these Official Rules, or acted unfairly or disruptively. If fraud, technical failure, or any other cause beyond Sponsor’s reasonable control impairs the integrity or proper operation of the Promotion, Sponsor may cancel or suspend the Promotion, in which case Sponsor may select the winner from among all eligible entries received before the impairing event. Nothing in this paragraph permits a change to these Official Rules during the Promotion Period (Section 9.1).

9.6 Platform disclaimer. This Promotion is in no way sponsored, endorsed, administered by, or associated with any social media platform or other platform on which it may be promoted. Entrants release those parties completely in connection with the Promotion. Questions, comments or complaints regarding the Promotion must be directed to Sponsor and not to any platform.

9.7 Brand disclaimer. Sponsor is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by any manufacturer or brand owner of any prize offered. Brand names, model names and product images are used solely to identify the prize being awarded. All trademarks are the property of their respective owners. Prizes are genuine products obtained through authenticated commercial channels.

Except where prohibited by law, acceptance of a prize constitutes the winner’s consent for Sponsor to use the winner’s name, city and state of residence, likeness, voice, statements, and photographs or recordings of the prize award and any related interview, in any and all media now known or later devised, worldwide, in perpetuity, for advertising and promotional purposes, without additional compensation, notice, or approval.

Information collected from entrants is subject to Sponsor’s Privacy Policy at /privacy. Entering the Promotion does not, by itself, subscribe an entrant to marketing communications. Entrants may opt in separately and may withdraw that consent at any time without affecting entries already received.

A telephone number provided with a mail-in entry is used solely to attempt contact with a potential winner. It is not used for marketing, and no automated or text message will be sent to it.

By entering, each entrant releases and holds harmless Sponsor and its members, officers, contractors and agents from any and all liability for any injury, loss or damage of any kind arising from or in connection with the Promotion or the acceptance, possession, or use of any prize.

Sponsor is not responsible for entries that are lost, late, incomplete, misdirected, garbled, delayed, or not received for any reason; for any error, omission, interruption, defect or delay in any transmission or communication; for technical or human error; or for any injury or damage to any person’s device related to or resulting from participation in the Promotion. Sponsor makes no representation or warranty of any kind concerning any prize, express or implied, except as expressly stated in these Official Rules.

Except where prohibited, each entrant agrees that any and all disputes, claims and causes of action arising out of or connected with this Promotion shall be resolved individually, without resort to any form of class action, in accordance with the dispute-resolution provisions of Sponsor’s Terms of Service at /terms, which provide for binding individual arbitration, a thirty-day opt-out for new users, and a small-claims alternative.

All issues and questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and enforceability of these Official Rules, or the rights and obligations of entrant and Sponsor, are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Where a dispute is not subject to arbitration, it will be brought in the state or federal courts located in Miami-Dade County, Florida, and each entrant consents to that jurisdiction.

This Promotion is sponsored and administered by SCORCH LLC (“Sponsor”). The Sponsor’s address is:

Mail-in entries go to the entry address stated in Section 4.2, which may or may not be this address.

For the name of the winner, send a self-addressed stamped envelope to the Sponsor’s address in Section 14, Attn: Winners List — [set when a promotion opens], to be received no later than [set when a promotion opens]. The winner’s first name, last initial, city and state will also be published at /winners.
