such eligibility requirements before participating in a Survey. Surveys must be completed in good faith and
to the best of the Program participant’s ability. Program participants who successfully

relevant Survey (a “Completed Survey”) will receive Rewards based on the Reward
point values assigned to each Survey as identified on the Site. A Program participant may complete a Survey only
once.
A summary of a participant’s Rewards Account may be viewed at the Site. Sponsor will attempt to credit participants’
accounts with Rewards points on a timely basis, though there may be Rewards
points allocation delays from time to time.
Each participant shall have the responsibility of ensuring that his or
her Rewards are properly credited. Any
claim for Rewards not credited accurately must be received by Sponsor within sixty
(60) days of the completion of a Completed Survey, otherwise such Rewards may no longer be valid or usable.
A Rewards Account which has had no activity for a period of six (6) months may be
deemed to be an "inactive" account and any Rewards accumulated in an
inactive Rewards Account forfeited without compensation. "Activity" includes: logging into
an Account, redeeming Rewards, clicking on a Survey link in an invitation sent
to the Account, or completing or attempting to complete a Survey.
5. Terms
Applicable to Rewards. Sponsor shall have no liability for any printing,
production, typographical, mechanical or other errors in the Rewards summaries
displayed or distributed by Sponsor or its agents, for any delay or failure to
credit Rewards to participant accounts, or for any failure to provide Rewards
Account summaries. Sponsor reserves the
right to invalidate Rewards from a participant's Rewards Account with notice if
it determines in its sole discretion that such Rewards were improperly credited
to the participant's Rewards Account or were obtained fraudulently or otherwise
in violation of these Rules. Sponsor
reserves the right to require proof of accrual of Rewards and Sponsor reserves
the right to delay the processing or redemption of any Rewards without notice,
in order to assure compliance with the Rules outlined herein.
Participants, by participating in the Program, are responsible for maintaining
the confidentiality of their Rewards Accounts and passwords, and agree to accept responsibility for all
activities that occur under their Rewards Account or password. Without limiting any other remedies, Sponsor
may suspend or terminate any Rewards Account if Sponsor suspects in its sole
discretion that any participant or other person has engaged in fraudulent
activity in connection with this Program.

procedures that Sponsor may adopt or modify from time to time. Any failure to abide by the Rules or any
policies or procedures implemented by Sponsor, any conduct detrimental to Sponsor,
or any misrepresentation or fraudulent activities in connection with this Program,

or limitation at any time in Sponsor’s sole discretion, including, without
limitation, the right to establish additional means of accruing Rewards, the
right to modify and delete any or all of the recognized means of accruing

exclude specific types of transactions from eligibility.
7. Redeeming
Rewards.Rewards
may be redeemed for cash or select items as identified by Sponsor from time to
time on the Site, subject to these Rules.
Rewards cannot be redeemed until participant has accrued the minimum number
of Rewards as identified by Sponsor on the Site, and can only be redeemed in
amounts as identified by Sponsor from time to time. Some Rewards will be subtracted from a participant's
account at the time the participant requests Rewards redemption.
Each redeeming participant is solely responsible for ensuring that their
shipping or email address is correct in the Program records prior to
redemption. Each redeeming participant may be responsible for paying all
shipping and handling charges for any reward selected, as disclosed at the time
of redemption. Sponsor’s obligation
regarding delivery of redemptions is satisfied upon shipping the selected redemption
item to the postal or email address for the participant contained in the Program
records as of the date of redemption.
The type of shipping will be at Sponsor’s sole discretion, and shall be contingent
on the Reward selected at redemption. Sponsor
is not responsible for lost or stolen redeemed items. Participants must allow eight to ten weeks
for shipment or delivery. No cash will be exchanged for the unused
portion of any active participant’s Rewards.
Once Rewards have been redeemed, they are no longer valid for any subsequent
redemption and they may not be returned or refunded to a participant's Rewards
Account for any reason. No extensions,
cash refunds or other exchanges will be allowed for expired Rewards except in
the sole discretion of Sponsor. The availability of any items or services offered
in the Program is subject to change without notice at any time and subject to
availability in the sole discretion of Sponsor.
Items or services offered in the Program for redemption may be available
only in limited quantities and will be distributed on a first-come,
first-served basis. Participants should
regularly consult the Site for updates about availability of redemption items.
8.
Withdrawing From The Program. Participants may voluntarily withdraw from the
Program at any time for any reason by visiting the Site, logging in to their
account, and following the instructions there for withdrawal. Should withdrawing participants not redeem any
unclaimed Rewards prior to withdrawal from the Program, Sponsor may, in its
sole discretion, provide withdrawn participants with an award of cash or
another item as selected by Sponsor.
Sponsor reserves the right not to make such an award, and withdrawing
participants should have no expectation of receipt of any such award. Participants
who voluntarily withdraw from the Program and still meet all the requirements
for eligibility may re-enroll at any time after one (1) year has passed from
the date of their withdrawal.
9. Modification
To Rules and Program. Participation in the Program is offered at the
discretion of Sponsor and it reserves in its sole discretion the right to
modify the Rules, Rewards redemption values, benefits, reward levels,
conditions of participation, rules for issuing, redeeming, retaining, using or
forfeiting Rewards and redeemable items and their respective duration or
timing, or any other aspect of the Program, in whole or in part, at any time even
though such changes may affect the redemption value of the Rewards already
accumulated.
Sponsor will give reasonable advance notice of any modification of the Rules
hereof which may adversely impact your Rewards Account, including by posting an
updated version of these Rules at the Site.
Participants understand that the most recent version of the Rules will
be located at the Site. A participant's
continued use of the Program following the posting on the Site of any
modification will indicate the participant's acceptance of any modification to
the terms hereof. Any participant may object to the modification to the Program
and/or its Rules by no longer participating.
10. Termination of the Program. The Program will continue until terminated at the sole
discretion of Sponsor. In the event Sponsor
decides to terminate the Program it shall post notice of such termination on
the Site at least 60 days prior to the date that such termination becomes
effective, during which time you may still accrue and redeem Rewards, provided
however, that you agree that Sponsor shall not be required to give 60 days notice
if such termination is due to the technical or procedural problems in the
operation of the Program, the filing of a petition in bankruptcy, an
adjudication of bankruptcy, insolvency, an assignment for the benefit of
creditors, or any other discontinuance of business.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if for any reason Sponsor determines in its sole
discretion that the Program is no longer capable of running as intended by
these Rules for any reason whatsoever, Sponsor, at its sole discretion,
reserves the right to cancel, terminate, suspend, postpone, delay or modify the
Program in whole or in part, at any time.

any Rewards accumulated in connection therewith.
