By participating, each entrant (each, an “Entrant” and, collectively, the “Entrants”) agree to abide by and be bound by these official rules (“Official Rules”) and the decisions of Platform and Bookshop.org (the “Sponsors”), which are final and binding in all respects and not subject to appeal.

SWEEPSTAKES PERIOD: The “Art Week Giveaway” is a random draw sweepstakes (the “Sweepstakes”), which begins at 12:00:00 AM (midnight) Eastern Time (“ET”) on Tuesday April 19, 2022 and ends 11:59 PM ET on Sunday April 24, 2022 (the “Sweepstakes Entry Period”), unless extended in the sole discretion of the Sponsors. The sole determinant of time for the purposes of a valid Entry or Bonus Entry (as such terms are defined below) in the Sweepstakes will be the Sponsor’s clock.
ELIGIBILITY: The Sweepstakes is open only to persons ages eighteen (18) years of age or older during the Sweepstakes Entry Period and who, as of the time of their Entry or Bonus Entries, as the case may be, are legal residents of, and physically located within, the fifty (50) United States or the District of Columbia (the “Territory”). Void outside of the Territory and where prohibited, taxed, or restricted by law. Officers, directors, employees, contractors, and agents of the Sponsor and its parent, subsidiary, affiliate, and related companies (collectively, the “Sweepstakes Entities”), as well as immediate family members and/or those living in the same household of each such person, and any others engaged in the development, production, execution, or distribution of this Sweepstakes, are not eligible to participate in the Sweepstakes. “Immediate family member” shall be deemed to mean husband, wife, children, mother, father, sister, sister in-law, brother, or brother in-law of a person. The Sweepstakes may only be entered in or from the Territory and purported Entries (as defined below) originating from any other jurisdiction other than the Territory are not eligible for Entry or Bonus Entry. All federal, state, and local laws and regulations apply to this Sweepstakes.
HOW TO ENTER: To enter the Sweepstakes, each Entrant must complete and submit an entry form available at https://platformart.com (the “Entry Form”) during the Sweepstakes Entry Period (each, a “Entry” and collectively, the “Entries”). By completing and submitting the Entry Form during the Sweepstakes Entry Period, an Entrant will automatically be entered into the Sweepstakes. There is a limit of one (1) Entry per Entrant for the entire Sweepstakes Entry Period. Any attempt by an Entrant to obtain Entries by using multiple or different identities and/or any other methods will void that Entrant’s Entry and may disqualify the Entrant from the Sweepstakes and/or future promotions, sweepstakes, or contests of the Sponsors. In case of dispute as to the identity of any Entrant, the Sponsor will declare the Entry made by the registered name and email address associated with such Entry. Any potential Winner (as defined below) may be requested to provide the Sponsor with proof that such person is the Entrant by whom the winning Entry was submitted.
LIMITATIONS: Entrants who have not complied with these Official Rules are subject to disqualification and their respective applicable Entries will be void. The Sponsors reserve the right to disqualify any Entry in the Sweepstakes if the Sponsor determines or suspects, in its sole and absolute discretion, that the Entrant who submitted the Entry in question has attempted to undermine the legitimate operation of the Sweepstakes by cheating, hacking, or other fraudulent, deceptive, or unfair acts, omissions, or playing practices. The Sponsors reserve the right to cancel, modify, or suspend the Sweepstakes at any time if, in the Sponsor’s sole and absolute discretion, fraud, technical failures, or any other errors or other causes corrupt the administration, security, integrity, or proper operation of the Sweepstakes. In the event of cancellation, the Sponsors reserve the right to select the Winner from among all eligible Entries received up to the date and time of such cancellation in a manner determined by the Sponsors to be fair, appropriate, and consistent with these Official Rules, in the Sponsors' sole and absolute discretion.
