Rules of Unique Application to Contests

It is unfair or deceptive in trade or commerce for a sponsor to advertise or solicit any person to participate in any contest which requires a person to pay money or make a donation or creates the impression in a reasonable person that a payment of anything of value, purchase of anything, or making a donation is a condition of participation in the contest, unless there is clear and conspicuous disclosure of:

(1)

The maximum number of rounds or levels, if the contest has more than one round or level;

(2)

The date the final winner will be determined;

(3)

The maximum total cost the final winner will have paid to the sponsor to participate in the contest, and, if the final winner must purchase or pay anything of value to a person other than the sponsor as a condition of eligibility, then that fact must be clearly and conspicuously disclosed;

(4)

If the contest involves multiple rounds of increasing difficulty, an example illustrative of the last determinative round or a statement that subsequent rounds will be more difficult;

(5)

If the contest is judged by other than the sponsor, the identity of or description of the qualifications of the judges;

(6)

The method used in judging; and

(7)

The name and address of the sponsor, or the sponsor’s agent, consistently stated wherever it is used in a promotion, and:

(a)

The name and address of the sponsor, or the sponsor’s agent, stated on the envelope used to mail the advertisement or solicitation; or

(b)

The name and address of the sponsor, or the sponsor’s agent, stated on the entry form.
