Prize will be awarded in the form of a check made payable to the winner or as a wire transfer to the winner's bank account. Prize is based on US Dollars and will be awarded in the winner's local currency at the equivalent exchange rate on the date the prize is awarded to the winner. Total RV of all prizes: $1,000,000.00 USD. Odds of winning the prize depends on the total number of eligible entries received during the Sweepstakes Period.
Prize Conditions: Winner must have a valid US or Canadian bank account. Winner is responsible for providing valid, accurate and correct bank account details and the Sponsor/Administrator will not be liable for any Prize payment made into the wrong bank account or if incorrect banking information is given. All federal, state, province, territory, and local tax (as applicable) and other tax liabilities (including income and withholding taxes) arising from prize acceptance are the sole responsibility of the winner. All details of prize not specified herein shall be determined solely by Sponsor. Except as provided herein, transfers or prize substitution is allowed only at the discretion of Sponsor, who reserves the right where lawful to substitute a prize (or prize component) with one of comparable or greater value. If prize cannot be awarded due to circumstances beyond the control of Sponsor, a substitute prize of equal or greater retail value will be awarded; provided, however, that if prize is awarded but unclaimed or forfeited by recipient, prize may not be re-awarded, in Sponsor's sole discretion. By accepting a prize, winner acknowledges compliance with these Official Rules. In no event will more Sweepstakes prizes be awarded than those listed in these Official Rules.
RANDOM DRAWING: A random drawing to select one (1) Grand Prize Winner will be conducted on or about March 1, 2024 from among all eligible entries received. The drawing will be conducted under the supervision of Marden-Kane, Inc., (the “Administrator”), an independent judging organization, whose decisions are final and binding in all matters relating to this Sweepstakes. There is a limit of one (1) prize per person, household, mailing address within a twenty-four (24) month period for ANY promotion Sponsored by Intuit.
WINNER NOTIFICATION AND VERIFICATION: An Entrant is not deemed a winner of any prize, even if the winning notification should so indicate, unless and until (i) the Entrant's eligibility has been verified, (ii) all requirements determined by the Sponsor in order to claim his/her prize have been fulfilled and (iii) the Entrant has been notified that the acceptance and verification process is complete. Potential winner will be notified via email and/or phone on or about two (2) business days after the drawing date to the email address or phone number provided on the Entry Form. The potential winner will be required to complete and sign an Affidavit of Eligibility and Liability Release and; where legal, a Publicity Release (collectively the “Affidavit”) as well as an IRS Form W-9 and provide his/her social security number (if winner is from USA) that will be used only for the purpose of reporting the Winner's prize earnings to the Internal Revenue Service, as required by law. Completed forms must be returned within five (5) days from prize notification date or the prize may be forfeited and awarded to an alternate potential winner. The Sponsor may, in its sole discretion, request any additional documentation needed to verify a winner. If the potential winner (i) cannot be contacted after a reasonable attempt has been made by Administrator (as determined in Sponsor's sole discretion); (ii) fails to timely return the required paperwork without alteration and in the form presented by Administrator; (iii) refuses the prize; and/or (iv) the prize or prize notification is rejected or returned as undeliverable, such potential winner forfeits all rights to be deemed a winner in the Sweepstakes and receive the prize, that potential prize winner may be disqualified and an alternate winner may be selected through a random drawing by the Administrator from the remaining eligible entries. Prize must be accepted as awarded. If the prize is won by an eligible individual who is not of the legal age of majority in his/her state/province/territory of permanent residence (“minor”), the required documents must be confirmed and signed by winner's parent or legal guardian.
CANADIAN RESIDENTS: If the potential Winner is from Canada, he/she will also be required to correctly answer a time limited mathematical skill testing question which will be administered by mail or telephone prior to award of any prize.
Sponsor reserves the right to conduct a background check of the Potential Winner. In addition, Entrants acknowledge and agree that the Releasees reserve the right to disqualify the Potential Winner or alternate Potential Winner at any time, in their sole discretion, on the basis of anything contained in or learned or obtained as a result of any background check, submitted Releases, or any other forms requested by the Releasees that, in their sole opinion, would constitute a breach of these Official Rules or otherwise.

Any attempt by an Entrant or any other individual to deliberately damage any online service or web site or undermine the legitimate operation of this Sweepstakes may be a violation of criminal and civil laws and should such an attempt be made; the Sponsor reserves the right to seek damages and/or other remedies 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 or any other provision.
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND RELEASE OF CLAIMS: By participating in the Promotion, Entrants agree to release, indemnify and hold harmless Releasees, and each of their respective agents, representatives, officers, directors, shareholders and employees from and against any injuries, losses, damages, claims, actions and any liability of any kind resulting from or arising from participation in the Promotion or acceptance, possession, use, misuse or nonuse of the prize (including any travel or travel-related activity thereto) that may be awarded.

If in the Sponsor's opinion, for any reason this Promotion is not capable of running as planned, or there is any suspected or actual evidence of electronic or non-electronic tampering with any portion of the Promotion, or if computer viruses, bugs, unauthorized intervention, fraud, or technical difficulties or failures including without limitation, any technical difficulties or failures related to the QR code, compromise or corrupt or affect the administration, integrity, security, fairness, or proper conduct of the Promotion, the Sponsors reserve the right at their sole discretion to disqualify any individual (and void his/her entry and/or prevent him/her from future participation) who tampers with the entry process and/or who is acting in violation of these Official Rules, to modify or suspend the Promotion, or to terminate the Promotion and at Sponsor's discretion conduct the drawing to award the prizes using all eligible non suspect transactions and entries received as of the termination date.

Sponsor reserves the right to modify prize award procedures at their discretion. Sponsor's failure to enforce any term of these Official Rules shall not constitute a waiver of that or any other provision.
DISPUTES: Most disagreements can be resolved informally and efficiently by contacting Intuit.
YOU AND SPONSOR AGREE THAT, EXCEPT AS PROVIDED BELOW, ANY DISPUTE, CLAIM OR CONTROVERSY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THE SERVICES OR THIS AGREEMENT (A “CLAIM”) WILL BE DETERMINED BY BINDING ARBITRATION OR SMALL CLAIMS COURT, INSTEAD OF IN COURTS OF GENERAL JURISDICTION.
Small Claims Court. Either you or Sponsor can seek to have a Claim resolved in small claims court if all the requirements of the small claims court are satisfied. Either you or Sponsor may seek to have a Claim resolved in small claims court in your county of residence or the small claims court in closest proximity to your residence, and you may also bring a claim in small claims court in the Superior Court of California, County of Santa Clara.
Arbitration: Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. You agree that the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration provision, and that you and Sponsor are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of this Agreement.
Notice of Claim: If you elect to seek arbitration, you must first send to Sponsor a written Notice of your Claim ("Notice of Claim"). The Notice of Claim to Sponsor should be sent in care of our registered agent Corporation Service Company, 251 Little Falls Drive, Wilmington, DE 19808. The Notice of Claim should include both the mailing address and email address you would like Sponsor to use to contact you. If Sponsor elects to seek arbitration, it will send, by certified mail, a written Notice of Claim to your address on file. A Notice of Claim, whether sent by you or by Sponsor, must (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific amount of damages or other relief sought.
Informal Resolution: You and Sponsor agree that good-faith informal efforts to resolve disputes often can result in a prompt, low-cost and mutually beneficial outcome. You and Sponsor therefore agree that, after a Notice of Claim is sent but before either you or Sponsor commence arbitration or file a claim in small claims court against the other, we will personally meet, via telephone or videoconference, in a good-faith effort to confer with each other and try to resolve informally any Claim covered by this Agreement. If you are represented by counsel, your counsel may participate in the conference as well, but you agree to fully participate in the conference. Likewise, if Sponsor is represented by counsel, its counsel may participate in the conference as well, but Sponsor agrees to have a company representative fully participate in the conference. The statute of limitations and any filing fee deadlines shall be tolled while the parties engage in the informal dispute resolution process required by this paragraph.
Commencing Arbitration or Small Claims Proceedings: If we do not reach an agreement to resolve the Claim within sixty (60) days after the Notice of Claim is received, you or Sponsor may commence an arbitration proceeding by filing a Demand for Arbitration or, alternatively, bringing a claim in small Claims Court. You agree that you may not commence any arbitration or file a claim in small claims court unless you and Sponsor are unable to resolve the claim within 60 days after we receive your completed Notice of Claim and you have made a good faith effort to resolve your claim directly with Sponsor during that time. If a Claim qualifies for small claims court, but a party commences an arbitration proceeding, you and Sponsor agree that either party may elect instead to have the Claim resolved in small claims court, and upon written notice of a party's election, the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) (or the Canadian equivalent) will administratively close the arbitration proceeding. Any dispute about whether a Claim qualifies for small claims court shall be resolved by that court, not by an arbitrator. In the event of any such dispute, the arbitration proceeding shall remain closed unless and until a decision by the small claims court that the Claim should proceed in arbitration. You may download or copy a form of notice and a form to initiate arbitration at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. The arbitration will be conducted by the AAA before a single AAA arbitrator under the AAA's rules, which are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879, except as modified by this Agreement. Unless Sponsor and you agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in the county (or parish) of either your residence or of the mailing address you provided in your Notice of Claim.
Arbitration Proceedings: Arbitrators: The arbitrator will be either (1) a retired judge or (2) an attorney specifically licensed to practice law in the state of California or the state of your residence and will be selected by the parties from the AAA's National Roster of arbitrators. The arbitrator will be selected using the following procedure: (a) the AAA will send the parties a list of five candidates meeting this criteria; (b) if the parties cannot agree on an arbitrator from the list, each party shall return its list to the AAA within 10 days, striking up to two candidates, and ranking the remaining candidates in order of preference; (c) the AAA shall appoint as arbitrator the candidate with the highest aggregate ranking; and (d) if for any reason the appointment cannot be made according to this procedure, the AAA may exercise its discretion in appointing the arbitrator. The arbitrator is bound by this Agreement. Except as otherwise provided in Section 14(i) below, all issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including issues relating to the scope and enforceability of this arbitration provision.
Arbitration Proceedings: Administrative Conference: The parties agree that an administrative conference with the AAA shall be conducted in each arbitration proceeding, and you and a Sponsor company representative shall appear at the administrative conference via telephone. If you fail to appear at the administrative conference, regardless of whether your counsel attends, the AAA will administratively close the arbitration proceeding without prejudice, unless you show good cause as to why you were not able to attend the conference.
Arbitration Proceedings: Decisions: The arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. The award shall be binding only among the parties and shall have no preclusive effect in any other arbitration or other proceeding involving a different party. Sponsor will not seek to recover its attorneys' fees and costs in arbitration from you unless the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in your Demand for Arbitration was frivolous or was brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)). Judgment on any award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. This agreement to arbitrate shall not preclude any party to the arbitration from at any time seeking injunctions or other forms of equitable relief in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction including whether a Demand for Arbitration is filed in violation of this Agreement.
Injunctive and Declaratory Relief: Except as provided in Section 14(b) above, the arbitrator shall determine all issues of liability on the merits of any Claim asserted by you or Sponsor and may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's individual claim. To the extent that you or Sponsor prevail on a Claim and seek public injunctive relief (that is, injunctive relief that has the primary purpose and effect of prohibiting unlawful acts that threaten future injury to the public), the entitlement to and extent of such relief must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration. The parties agree that litigation of any issues of public injunctive relief shall be stayed pending the outcome of the merits of any individual Claims in arbitration. Before a court of competent jurisdiction issues any public injunctive relief, it shall review the factual findings of the arbitration award on which any injunction would be issued with no deference to the arbitrator.
Arbitration Fees and Costs: Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. You are required to pay AAA's initial filing fee, but Sponsor will reimburse you for this filing fee at the conclusion of the arbitration to the extent it exceeds the fee for filing a complaint in a federal, state, province or territory court in your county/province/territory of residence or in Santa Clara County, California. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your Claim or the relief sought in your Demand for Arbitration was frivolous or was brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules and Sponsor will not reimburse your initial filing fee. The parties agree that the AAA has discretion to modify the amount or timing of any administrative or arbitration fees due under the AAA Rules where it deems appropriate, provided that such modification does not increase the AAA fees to you or Sponsor, and you and Sponsor waive any objection to such fee modification.
Class Action Waiver: YOU AND SPONSOR AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, if you have elected arbitration, unless both you and Sponsor agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate any other person's Claims with your Claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If Sponsor believes that any Claim you have filed in arbitration or in court is inconsistent with the limitations in this Section 14(i), then you agree that Sponsor may seek an order from a court determining whether your Claim is within the scope of the Class Action Waiver. If this Class Action Waiver is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 14 (Disputes) shall be null and void.
PRIVACY: Information collected from Entrants shall be used in a manner consistent with the Intuit Privacy Policy and applicable laws.
