The submitted Photo and Artwork together are referred to herein as an “Entry.” No mechanically reproduced Entries permitted. LIMIT ONE (1) ENTRY PER ENTRANT. Incomplete entries and those containing invalid e-mail addresses will be disqualified and removed from the Contest. Any attempt to enter using multiple/different email addresses, social media account names, identities, registrations and logins, or any other methods will void all of an entrant’s entries and that entrant will be disqualified. Use of any automated system to participate is prohibited and will result in disqualification.
Entries (including the Photo and Artwork) become the exclusive property of Sponsor and will not be acknowledged or returned. By entering the Contest, parents or legal guardians of an Entrant grant Sponsor a perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free, irrevocable, non-exclusive license to reproduce, distribute, display, exhibit, transmit, broadcast, televise, digitize, feature on footwear, and otherwise use your Entry (including the Photo and Artwork submitted and variations thereof) in any manner, form, or format now or hereinafter created, including on the internet, and for any purpose, including, but not limited to, advertising or promotion of Sponsor and its goods or services. You further agree that Sponsor may use your name, likeness, and Photo and Artwork all without further consent from or payment to you. You further acknowledge that notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, Sponsor has no obligation to use your Entry, Photo, or Artwork in any manner or for any purpose.
Representations and Warranties. By participating in the Contest, you warrant and represent that: (a) the Photo and Artwork is Entrant’s original work, and you and/or Entrant are the sole and exclusive owner of all intellectual property rights in and to the Photo and Artwork; (b) use of the Photo and/or the Artwork as described in these Official Rules will not infringe the intellectual property or other rights of any third party, or violate any federal, state, or local laws or ordinances; (c) the Photo and the Artwork is not obscene or libelous, and does not contain anything defamatory or derogatory; (d) the Photo or Entry does not contain any virus, spyware, malware, trap door, worm, or any other device, mechanism or code that is injurious or damaging to software or hardware used in conjunction with the Contest; and (e) you have the right to grant the license in Section 3 above.

Winner Selection. On or around the week of May 18, 2020, Sponsor will designate a voting panel of Sponsor employees to select one (1) Grand Prize Winner from among all qualified entries received during the Contest Period. The panel’s voting will be based 50% on creative use of color, 30% originality, and 20% brand appropriate. Any attempt during the Contest Period to create false votes, automatically-generated votes, or otherwise tamper with, distort, or manipulate the voting process, all as determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion, will result in immediate disqualification. In addition, Sponsor may disqualify any Entry and/or Artwork, in its sole discretion, if it determines that the Entry received votes in exchange for compensation or other consideration.
Odds of winning a prize depend on number of eligible entries received. Prize winner will be notified through direct message or email, and may be required to complete and return an eligibility affidavit and liability/publicity release. If a potential winner cannot be contacted within three (3) days after Sponsor’s first attempt, does not meet the eligibility criteria, does not fully comply with these Official Rules, or fails to sign and return the affidavit and/or release, then the potential winner forfeits the prize and an alternate winner will be selected.
If a prize winner is considered a minor in his or her jurisdiction of residence, the prize will be awarded in the name of, or to, the winner’s parent or legal guardian, who must accept the prize, execute any required documents, and agree to all obligations and undertakings of the winner, both on behalf of himself/herself and winner, or the prize may be forfeited and awarded to an alternate winner. Under no circumstances will a prize be awarded as the result of an entry by an individual under 18 years of age, or for Artwork created by an individual over 11 years of age.
