Updated September 21, 2024

 

Note that specific Contests may have rules that vary from the rules set forth herein. In the event the rules of a specific Contest differ from or inconsistent with the rules set forth herein, the rules of the specific Contest shall govern.

 

An individual (“Contestant”), by entering, attempting to enter, or in any way participating or attempting to participate in any contest, giveaway, or sweepstakes (each a “Contest”) conducted by Zazza Nation, LLC (“Sponsor”),agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions provided in these General Contest Rules and by Sponsor’s interpretations of these General Contest Rules which are final and binding in all matters relating to any Contest.

 

A copy of these general rules, along with any specific contest rules, if applicable, are available on Sponsor’s website at www.zazzanation.com (the “Website”).

 

1. No Purchase Necessary. No purchase or payment of any kind is necessary to enter or to win a Contest. Any purchase or payment shall not increase a Contestant’s odds of winning a Contest.

 

2. Void Where Prohibited. All applicable local, state, andfederal laws and regulations govern all Contests. Participation in a Contest is void where prohibited or otherwise restricted by law.

 

3. Eligibility. Unless otherwise stated in a specific Contest’s rules, the following terms determine a Contestant’s eligibility.

 

(a) Only legal U.S. residents age eighteen (18) or older at the time of entry are eligible to participate in Sponsor’s Contests.

 

(b) Employees, agents, contractors, officers, representatives, or affiliates of Sponsor, its affiliates, participating sponsors, third-party prized provider(s), prize fulfillment service, other radio stations, and advertising companies, and their immediate family members and household members are not eligible to participate. The term “immediate family members” includes spouses, parents, siblings, grandparents, children, grandchildren and cohabiting individuals.

 

(c) Sponsor may set limitations on how frequently an individual can be eligible to win more than one prize within a specified time period. For national Contests, an individual may win only once (1) every thirty (30) days. However, the same individual may not win more than one trip to a specific event. For local sweepstakes/contests, an individual may win only once (1) every thirty (30) days. Only one (1) winner per household is permitted in any contest or sweepstakes. “Household members” shall mean people who share the same residence at least three (3) months a year. An individual may win an on-going Contest only once per six-month period unless otherwise specifically stated. An individual may win other seasonal or one-time contests only once for the duration of the Contest.

Note: Listeners to streamed broadcasts mayexperience different amounts of lag in transmissions due to buffering limitations of various devices and streaming services and may as a result hear
