Following the Draw, the Sponsor or its designated representative will make a maximum of three (3) attempts to contact the Selected Entrant (in the case of an Online Selected Entrant, by using the information provided by direct message) within five (5) days of the Draw.

If a Selected Entrant: (a) fails to respond to the notification of being selected as a potential winner within the specified time; (b) cannot accept the Prize as awarded for any reason; or (c) otherwise fails to comply with the Rules in any way, then they will be disqualified (and will forfeit all rights to the Prize) and the Sponsor reserves the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to randomly select an alternate eligible Entrant from among the remaining eligible Entries received during the Entry Period.
