Employees of Rent-A-Center, Inc. and its subsidiaries, as well as immediate family (spouse, parents, siblings and children) and household members of each such employee, are not eligible. The Facebook Contest is subject to all applicable federal, state, provincial, municipal, territorial and local laws and regulations, as well as any limitations imposed by Facebook. Void where prohibited by law. Entrants residing in those areas where the Contest is void may participate in the Contest but may not win any prizes. Participation constitutes Entrant’s full and unconditional agreement to these Official Rules and Sponsor’s decisions, which are final and binding in all matters related to the Contest. All prizes are contingent upon fulfillment of all requirements and rules set forth herein.
- Sponsor: Rent-A-Center, Inc., 5501 Headquarters Dr., Plano, TX 75024, U.S.A.
- Timing: The Facebook Contest begins on April 4, 2016 at 12:00 a.m. Eastern Time (“ET”) and ends on April 4, 2016 at 11:59 p.m. ET (the “Contest Period”). Sponsor’s designated computer is the official time-keeping device for the Contest.
- How to Enter: There is one (1) way to enter during the Contest Period and it is free of charge:
- Comment on Facebook Contest post: During the Contest Period, leave a comment on the Contest post. You automatically will receive one (1) entry into the Contest.
Only one entry per person per Facebook profile allowed. Multiple Entrants are not permitted to share the same Facebook profile. Any attempt by any Entrant to obtain more than the stated number of entries by using multiple/different email addresses, Facebook profiles, identities, registrations and logins, or any other methods, will void that Entrant’s entries and that Entrant may be disqualified. Use of any automated system to participate is prohibited and will result in disqualification. In the event of a dispute as to any registration, the authorized account holder of the Facebook profile used to enter will be deemed to be the Entrant. The “authorized account holder” is the natural person assigned the Facebook profile by Facebook or other organization responsible for assigning Facebook profile. The potential winner may be required to show proof of being the authorized account holder.
- Grand Prize Drawing: Sponsor will randomly select the potential Contest winner(s) from all eligible entries received during the Contest Period, on or around April 4, 2016, but no later than 5 days after the Contest Period ends. Except where prohibited, the potential winner (parent/legal guardian if a winner is a minor in his/her place of residence) will be required to sign and return a Declaration of Compliance, Liability, and Publicity Release, which must be received. The potential winner(s) will be notified by a comment from Sponsor on the Facebook Contest post within seven (7) days of selection. Potential winners are then required to follow the posted directions for contacting Sponsor by direct message to redeem the prize. The potential winner will not be notified by private Facebook message from Sponsor. A selected potential winner forfeits the prize and a new winner may be selected if (a) the correct name and residence of selected potential winner cannot be confirmed; (b) a selected potential winner cannot be contacted, fails to sign and return the Declaration of Compliance, Liability, and Publicity Release, or does not provide any other requested information within the required time period; or (c) prize is returned as undeliverable. In the event that the selected potential winner is disqualified for any reason, Sponsor will award the prize to an alternate winner by random drawing from among all remaining eligible entries. Only three (3) alternate drawings will be held, after which the prize will remain un-awarded. Prize will be fulfilled approximately 8-10 weeks after the conclusion of the Contest. Sponsor may, in its sole discretion, disqualify any Entrant who (a) does not comply with Contest Rules or instructions; (b) submits or posts anything that is inappropriate, offensive, obscene, or derogatory; or (C) violates or infringes any third party’s rights or interests, including without limitation privacy and intellectual property rights.

Sponsor reserves the right to substitute the prize for one of equal or greater value if the designated prize should become unavailable for any reason. Winner is responsible for all taxes and fees associated with prize receipt and/or use. Odds of winning the prize depend on the number of eligible entries received during the Contest Period.
- Release: By entrance into the Contest or receipt of any prizes, Entrants and winners agree to release and hold harmless Sponsor, and their respective subsidiaries, affiliates, suppliers, distributors, advertising/promotion agencies, and prize suppliers, and each of their respective parent companies and each such company’s officers, directors, employees and agents (collectively, the “Released Parties”) from and against any claim or cause of action, including, but not limited to, personal injury, death, or damage to or loss of property, arising out of participation in the Contest or receipt or use or misuse of any prize.

- General Conditions: Sponsor reserves the right to cancel, suspend, and/or modify the Contest, or any part of it, if any fraud, technical failures, human error or any other factor impairs the integrity or proper functioning of the Contest, as determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion. Sponsor reserves the right in its sole discretion to disqualify any individual it finds to be tampering with the entry process or the operation of the Contest or to be acting in violation of the Official Rules of this or any other promotion or in an unsportsmanlike or disruptive manner. Any attempt by any person to deliberately undermine the legitimate operation of the Contest may be a violation of criminal and civil law, and, should such an attempt be made, Sponsor reserves the right to seek damages from any such person to the fullest extent permitted by law. Sponsor’s failure to enforce any term of these Official Rules shall not constitute a waiver of that provision.
- Not Endorsed by Facebook: By participating in this Contest, Entrants and winners acknowledge that this Contest is in no way sponsored, endorsed or administered by, or associated with, Facebook and release Facebook from any and all liability arising from or related to this Contest. The information you are providing for this Contest is being provided to Sponsor, not to Facebook. Facebook is further included in the term “Released Party” as that term is used herein.

If the Contest, or any part of it, is discontinued for any reason, Sponsor, at its discretion, may elect to hold a random drawing from among all eligible entries received up to the date of discontinuance for any or all of the prizes offered herein. No more than the stated number of prizes will be awarded. In the event that production, technical, seeding, programming or any other reasons cause more than the stated number of prizes as set forth in these Official Rules to be available and/or claimed, Sponsor reserves the right to award only the stated number of prizes by a random drawing among all legitimate, un-awarded, eligible prize claims.
