Sweepstakes Rules

HOW IT WORKS

Each campaign is a multi-purpose multipurpose effort. First, we (Driftless Region Youth Flight, Inc.), a U.S. 501(c)(3) tax-exempt charity, which receives all, or most, donations made through Driftless Region Youth Flight’s online platform (Platform) and uses said donations to operate Driftless Region Youth Flight, Inc. Our campaigns bring together well-known companies who can serve as prize providers (Prize Providers) and who allow the use of their logo and name on our Platform. The prizes (Prizes) are ones that almost anybody (see restrictions below) can enter to win.

We use our Driftless Region Youth Flight, Inc. website to manage all of our Campaigns, including the participation of Participants. This minimizes our expenses and allows Driftless Region Youth Flight, Inc. to put more funds back into our educational programming.


Eligibility

Participants (You) in any sweepstakes sponsored by Driftless Region Youth Flight, Inc. must be legal residents of the United States. We currently exclude legal residents of Alaska, Florida, Hawaii, New York, and Rhode Island from participating in sweepstakes that it is promoting. All participants must be 18 years or older, unless specified in the rules governing a future, specific sweepstakes.

All full or part-time employees of Driftless Region Youth Flight, Inc., members of their households and immediate families (e.g. parents, spouses, domestic partners, siblings and children) are ineligible. Further, all board members and/or employees of Partner Charities and their households and immediate families are ineligible along with any employees of the sweepstakes Prize Partner and their households and immediate families.

From time to time, we may limit the frequency of how often an individual is eligible to win a prize within a defined time frame. Any individual who uses a bot, software, any other codes, other mechanical or technological methods for the purpose of entering into a sweepstakes in a manner that provides an advantage over individuals who enter manually, will be disqualified from the sweepstakes that they entered and all future sweepstakes and promotions, subject to Driftless Region Youth Flight, Inc. sole discretion. Further, if anybody attempts to deliberately damage or undermine the legitimate operation of the sweepstakes/campaign they may be in violation of criminal and civil laws. If anybody deliberately attempts to damage or undermine the sweepstakes/campaign, we may seek damages from that person to the furthest extent of the law.


Consent & Agreement to Rule

By entering and participating in the sweepstakes, the Contestant (You) agree to be fully and unconditionally bound by these Official Rules and any additional rules published in conjunction with a specific sweepstakes. By entering the sweepstakes, you warrant that you meet the eligibility requirements. Further, you agree to accept the decisions of Driftless Region Youth Flight, Inc., promoter of this sweepstakes, as final and binding as it relates to the rules of this sweepstakes.

As a contestant in the sweepstakes, you waive any right to claim ambiguity with respect to these Official Rules or any additional rules published in conjunction with a specific, future sweepstakes. You also agree to waive all of your rights to bring any judicial claim or action against Driftless Region Youth Flight, Inc., its Partner Charities or Prize Partners.

In lieu of a claim in front of a judge in court, you agree to settle any disputes with Driftless Region Youth Flight, Inc., or its partner Charities or Prize Partners in relation to any sweepstakes promoted by Driftless Region Youth Flight, Inc. through Arbitration; No Class Action.


PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.

Entering and participating in the sweepstakes constitutes your acceptance of this Arbitration provision.

As a condition of participation in a sweepstakes, each Contestant (you / your) and Sponsor (we / us) agrees that any and all disputes, claims and causes of action (collectively, Claims) arising out of or connected with such Game (except for small claims court Claims, if applicable) shall be resolved exclusively by binding arbitration under the rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA), including the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes, for full and final settlement of such Claim applying the Federal Arbitration Act and other federal arbitration laws. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT YOU ARE WAIVING YOUR RIGHT TO SUE OR GO TO COURT TO ASSERT OR DEFEND YOUR RIGHTS UNDER THIS CONTRACT. YOU AND WE ALSO AGREE THAT (A) ANY CLAIMS WILL BE RESOLVED INDIVIDUALLY NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS REPRESENTATIVE, MEMBER OF OTHERWISE ON BEHALF OF OTHERS IN ANY PURPOSED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING AND NOT THROUGH ANY CLASS ACTION, (B) IF A CLAIM PROCEEDS IN COURT ANYWAY, WE BOTH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL; AND (C) EITHER YOU OR WE MAY SEEK A COURT INJUNCTION REGARDING INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INFRINGEMENT. ARBITRATION DOES NOT INVOLVE A JUDGE OR JURY. Although court review of an arbitration award may be limited, an arbitrator is empowered to award the same damages and relief as a court, including injunctive relief or statutory damages. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may seek temporary or emergency equitable relief to enforce its rights in any court of competent jurisdiction.

You may seek arbitration of a Claim by contacting our registered agent at: Driftless Region Youth Flight, Inc. 712 Main Street, La Crosse, WI 54601. The arbitration may be conducted via telephone, written submissions or in person at a mutually agreed location. Payment of all filing, administration, arbitrator and/or mediator fees (Fees) will be governed by AAAs rules. The AAAs rules are available at: www.adr.org or call 800-778-7879 (toll-free) for instructions on how to obtain a copy. Unless the AAA arbitrator determines that your Claim was frivolous, we will (i) reimburse you for Fees paid by you, and (ii) will not seek reimbursement from you for our attorneys fees and costs associated with the arbitration. You and we further agree that any award and any judgment confirming it only applies to the arbitration in which it was awarded and cannot be used in any other proceeding except to enforce the award itself and any post-arbitration action seeking to enforce an arbitration award or action seeking equitable or injunctive relief shall be brought exclusively in the courts of the State of Wisconsin, or the United States District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin. For any Claims that are not subject to arbitration, if any: (a) the exclusive jurisdiction and venue for proceedings involving Claims shall be the courts of competent jurisdiction sitting within the State of Wisconsin (the Forum), and the parties hereby waive any argument that any such court does not have personal jurisdiction or that the Forum is not appropriate or convenient; (b) you and we waive any and all rights to trial by jury with respect to any Claims.


ENTRY WEIGHTING

Driftless Region Youth Flight, Inc., intends to operate each sweepstakes as fairly and equitably as possible. We use a system so that entries are treated equally. Each free entry is automatically assigned the equivalent value (worth) as the chance to win when you donate the minimum required for each campaign, typically $100). Each person, identified by their legal name, primary residence address, phone number and e-mail address is limited to 5 free entries, per sweepstakes campaign. For example, if a person sends 10 postcards to Driftless Region Youth Flight, Inc. attempting to enter the sweepstakes 10 times, 5 postcards will be discarded and not entered into the sweepstakes. You do not have to make a donation/purchase to enter the sweepstakes but if you do, we may offer you certain perks. These perks are not part of the sweepstakes/campaign as they are based on donations.


Sweepstakes Start and End, Dates and Times

The start and end date for each specific sweepstakes (known as campaign) will be listed at http://www.dryouthflight.org/sweepstakes. Campaigns will end at a specific time on a specific date or when a maximum amount of donations has been reached. This period of time is called the campaign window. All entries must be received within 48 hours of the campaign window ending.

Driftless Region Youth Flight, Inc.. reserves the right, in our sole discretion, to substitute a prize of equal or greater value. As Driftless Region Youth Flight, Inc.. works with Prize Partners to make all prizes available to You, as such, all prizes are subject to availability.
