By submitting an Entry, the Entrant agrees that Sponsor and its agents are authorized to contact the Entrant via email, by physical mail, telephone, or any other form of communication to make the Entrant aware of information pertinent to the Sweepstakes.  By submitting an Entry, the Entrant also agrees to receive marketing materials or information regarding Sponsor’s featured product(s), special events or promotional offers, or purchase incentives through email or physical mail from Sponsor or its agents.  Entrants may opt out of further email communication at any time by clicking on the “unsubscribe” link located in the footer of promotional emails from Sponsor.

All information submitted by an Entrant will be treated according to Sponsor’s Privacy Policy, available at www.moneylion.com/privacy-notice.  By participating in the Sweepstakes, Entrants agree to Sponsor’s collection and use of their personal information and acknowledge that they have read and accepted Sponsor’s Privacy Policy.

Random Drawing / Selection of Winning Nominees:  A total of one (1) nominee (the “Winning Nominee”) will be selected in a random drawing from all eligible Entries.  Once an Entry has been selected to win, it is no longer eligible to win under this Sweepstakes.  A Winning Nominee can win only once during the Sweepstakes; as a result, once an individual has won a Prize, they are no longer eligible to win under this Sweepstakes.  The odds of winning a Prize will depend on the total number of eligible Entries at the time of the random drawing.  All random drawings will be conducted by Sponsor whose decisions in all matters relating to this Sweepstakes are final.

The winning Entrant will be contacted by Sponsor regarding, among other things, how the Winning Nominee corresponding to their winning Entry can claim the Prize.  The Winning Nominee must respond within two (2) business days of Sponsor’s notification to the winning Entrant to claim their Prize, and may be required to complete and sign an Affidavit of Eligibility and Liability/Publicity Release form provided to them to be returned within two (2) business days of written notification.  If the Winning Nominee fails to respond to Sponsor’s notification within two (2) business days, then such person may be disqualified by Sponsor in its sole discretion, in which case an alternate winner will be awarded the Prize at issue.

The Prize will be awarded in the form of a check (or such other form as determined by Sponsor).  A Winning Nominee may be required to complete a Form W-9 within five (5) calendar days of notification or will be disqualified from receiving the Prize.

The Sponsor reserves the right at its sole discretion to substitute the Prize with another prize of equal value in the event that the Prize (or any component thereof) is not available. The Prize is not transferable or assignable.

Odds: The odds of winning will depend upon the number of eligible Entries received during the Sweepstakes Period.  

Prize / Prize Conditions: The Winning Nominee will receive a Prize of one thousand dollars ($1,000) (the “Prize”).  A total of one (1) Prize will be awarded under this Sweepstakes consisting of one thousand dollars ($1,000) for the nominated teacher or school administrator (i.e., the Winning Nominee).  The Prize will be directly awarded to the teacher or school administrator nominated in the winning Entries.  Sponsor will contact the winning Entrant to facilitate the prize distribution.  

By accepting the Prize, the Winning Nominee agrees to release Sponsor and the Released Parties, and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, representatives and agents, from any and all liability whatsoever for any injuries, losses, or damages of any kind by entering the Sweepstakes or for damages of any kind caused by the Prize or resulting from acceptance, possession, or use/misuse of the Prize awarded.  All local, state and federal taxes are solely the responsibility of the Winner.  An IRS form 1099 will be issued if required by law.
