OFFICIAL INKYGIRL-SPONSORED CONTEST RULES

NO PURCHASE THROUGH INKYGIRL.COM IS NECESSARY TO ENTER OR WIN. A PURCHASE WILL NOT INCREASE YOUR CHANCES OF WINNING. ALL PROVINCIAL, FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, AND MUNICIPAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS APPLY. VOID WHERE PROHIBITED.

1. Eligibility

Inkygirl.com giveaways ("Contest") are open to all individuals who are at least eighteen (18) years old at the time of entry. The Contest is subject to provincial, federal, state, and local laws and regulations.

2. Sponsor

The Contest is sponsored by Inkygirl.com. Contests may be announced and held via social media platforms -- such as Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, YouTube, Blogger, and Periscope -- but they are in no way sponsored, endorsed, administered by, or associated with these social media sites. Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, YouTube, Blogger, and Periscope are not affiliated with Inkygirl.com contests, and cannot be held liable for anything related to these promotions.

The Contest begins and ends at the times stated in the giveaway posting - please refer to original post for start and end time details. Entries that are submitted before or after the Contest Period will be disqualified. Submissions will be accepted for the duration of the Contest.

Limit one (1) entry per person and per email address for the entire duration of the Contest Period, regardless of method of entry, unless otherwise noted in the original Contest announcement post. 

4. Winners Selection

Shortly after the closing of the giveaway, Sponsor will conduct a random drawing to select potential winner(s) from among all eligible entries received. The odds of being selected depend on the number of entries received.

5. Prizes

Prizes vary from promotion to promotion. Please refer to original giveaway post for prize list.

6. Prize Conditions

Winner(s) will be notified by email. Inability to contact a winner, failure by winner to reply to the winners notice by the date specified by sponsor, or the return of any prize notification as undeliverable will result in the prize being forfeited and an alternate winner will be selected from the remaining eligible entries by random drawing. Prize winner may be required to complete an affidavit of eligibility, a liability release and (where legal) a publicity release, which must be returned within time period specified in notification letter or an alternate winner may be selected. If prize winner is 18 or older, as is required for entry, but not of the age of majority in state of residence, prize will either be awarded in the name of parent or legal guardian, or parent or legal guardian must ratify and sign any and all documents required of winner. Winner's guests, or a parent/legal guardian if winner is not the legal age of majority at the time of entry, must complete and return a notarized liability/publicity release prior to issuance of a prize. No prize transfer or cash redemption. No prize substitution, in whole or in part, except by Sponsor due to prize unavailability or any other reason as solely determined by Sponsor, in which case a prize of comparable or greater value will be awarded.

7. Copyright

Any photos, art or writing you submit as part of any of contests belongs to you. By entering the contest, you give the permission to repost if you end up winning (e.g. "Here's the winning entry" etc.) but other than that, your content will not be posted elsewhere without your express permission.
