IMPORTANT NOTE: Any entrant who incorporates any intellectual property owned by a third party into his or her submission does so at his or her own risk. If sponsor is duly notified that any element of an entrant’s submission infringes upon the rights of another person and/or receives a legally valid request to remove the affected submission from the Web site because of such infringement, such submission may be removed from the Web site and/or disqualified from the contest, as sponsor may determine in its sole discretion. Further, no entrant will be eligible to receive a prize unless sponsor determines, in its sole and absolute discretion that such entrant’s submission has been or can be sufficiently cleared for legal purposes.
Entries must be postmarked by the end of the promotion period and received by
sponsor no later than July 1, 2011.
WINNER SELECTION AND NOTIFICATION:
Once a submission is mailed to the sponsor, it may be made available for viewing on the Web site by the general public and any such posting will be deemed to have been made at the direction of the entrant. At the end of the submission period, sponsor will judge all eligible submissions entered to select the semi-finalist who will be notified of their selection. Each Semi-Finalist will receive an email to notify them that their entry has been posted to the online Round Rock Living Magazine Kids Photo gallery. This email will also include a link to vote for the entry. Entrants will be invited to share the voting link with others, so that they may vote for the entry.
During the voting periods, entries will be displayed in the Round Rock Living Magazine Kids Photo gallery, and visitors to the site will be invited to vote for their favorite entry based on overall appearance of the child as shown in the photo(s), and quality of photo(s). One vote per computer per day.
For each voting period, one (1) winner will be determined by highest number of votes received. In the event of a tie, a qualified panel of judges will determine the winner from among the tied entries based on photogenic appeal of the child. Voting results are unofficial until verified by Sponsor. The First-, Second-, and third-place winners will be selected and announced at the August 13, 2011 Fashion show. The sponsor in its discretion will make the determination of the winners and such determination will not be subject to challenge or appeal. If any potential winner is found to be ineligible, or if he or she has not complied with
these Official Rules or declines prize for any reason prior to award, such potential winner will be disqualified and an alternate winner may be selected.
