Should the Contest be terminated prior to the stated expiration date, the Cash Prize will be drawn from the pool of Submissions that have been received up until and or after (if applicable) the time of modification, cancellation or termination, or in a manner that is fair and equitable as determined by Swayable.
Swayable shall have no responsibility or obligation to Contest winners or potential winners who are unable or unavailable to accept or utilize the Cash Prizes or who have provided the incorrect contact information. Swayable will attempt to contact winners for a period of 3 weeks and at the end of this time, if Swayable is unable to contact the winner, we reserve the right not to award the Cash Prize to the winner and instead, choose another winner based upon the Contest Rules for determining that winner, and award the Cash Prize to that subsequent winner. All Prizes are awarded "as is" with no guarantee either express or implied. All prize awards are subject to verification of eligibility and compliance with the Contest Rules and these Terms. Swayable reserves the right not to award Cash Prizes if it determines, in its sole discretion, that there were an insufficient number of Contest Submissions.
